Mechanical factors favoring release from fouling release coatings

Brady, Robert F, Singer, Irwin L·2000·Biofouling

Abstract

For some twenty years the marine coatings industry has been intrigued by polymer surfaces with low adhesion to other materials, especially to the biological glues used by marine organisms. Polymers with fouling release surfaces have been made from sundry materials, and their resistance to marine fouling in both static and dynamic tests has been evaluated in the world's oceans. Although the polymer surface property most frequently correlated with bioadhesion is its critical surface tension (γ(?)), resistance to fouling is also influenced by other bulk and surface properties of the polymer. This paper reviews the types of bonding associated with polymeric materials used in fouling resistant coatings, describes the removal process in terms of fracture mechanics, and discusses the importance of surface energy, elastic modulus and coating thickness in the release of biofoulants.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
