“…[ 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ]. Thanks to the outstanding properties of ZnO nanoparticles, the present researchers were able to improve the antifouling ability by combining ZnO nanoparticles with a polymeric membrane [ 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 ]. Moreover, since ZnO nanoparticles possess a strong hydrophilicity by adhering the hydrophilic functional groups such as –OH, –SO 3 H, and –COOH [ 52 ], this can give rise to new approaches to improving antifouling ability.…”

Current technology to prevent biofouling usually relies on the use of toxic, biocide-containing materials, which can become a serious threat to marine ecosystems, affecting both targeted and nontargeted organisms. Therefore, the development of broad-spectrum, less toxic antifouling materials is a challenge for researchers; such materials would be quite important in applications like aquaculture. In this respect, surface chemistry, physical properties, durability and attachment scheme can play a vital role in the performance of the materials. In this work, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)/micro ZnO or nano ZnO composite lattices with different metal oxide contents were developed using 3D printing. Their antifouling behavior was examined with respect to aquaculture applications by monitoring growth on them of the diatoms Navicula sp. and the monocellular algae Chlorella sp. with image analysis techniques. As shown, the presence of metal oxides in the composite materials can bring about antifouling ability at particular concentrations. The present study showed promising results, but further improvements are needed.

“…While silver oxide-graphene composites are indeed quite efficient for the marine antifouling coatings and paints, other metal oxides such as Zn and Cu are also under investigation. [110,111] Figure 19 illustrates the process of fabrication of the PDMS/ ZnO-GO antifouling coating and its antifouling properties. The ZnO-GO (ZnO-GO) nanocomposites were synthesized by employing a facile one-pot reaction.…”

Sea vessels and artificial sea‐based structures are severely affected by biofouling, i.e., the formation of deposits of living and dead marine organisms that belong to different species and range in size from unicellular bacteria to multicellular seaweed and mussels. This is a significant engineering problem since they essentially alter the geometry of the hull, increasing friction and reducing the speed of vessels, thus increasing the cost and environmental footprint of transportation. Given the scale of global transportation reaches several billion tons per year, the socioeconomic consequences of the reduction in transit speed and increased consumption of fuel continue to drive researchers and engineers to develop strategies to combat the processes of marine biofouling. Many types of antifouling paints, coatings, and materials that have been designed and tested, and in some instances used commercially, suffer from shortcomings ranging from environmental toxicity to limited efficiency and durability. In this review article, a brief overview of the traditional antifouling materials is presented and recent achievements in the design of advanced antifouling materials based on such nanomaterials as graphene, nanotubes, nanoparticles, and more complex nanostructures are discussed. These materials exhibit excellent antifouling properties and candrive a breakthrough in how marine biofouling is tackled.
