“…Addition of reduced graphene oxide to acrylic matrix increased the water contact angle from 45° to 113° and ensured an adhesion between marine antifouling coating and intermediate coating equal to 5B while the average adhesive force measured by pull-off tests was 3.69 MPa [ 61 ]. Copolymer systems based on PVA and MMA functionalized with three different monomers, amine (acrylamide), carboxylic (acrylic acid), and hydroxyl (ethylene glycol), were developed by Ghani et al [ 62 ].…”

Mechanical Properties of Protective Coatings against Marine Fouling: A Review

2021

The accumulation of marine organisms on ship hulls, such as microorganisms, barnacles, and seaweeds, represents a global problem for maritime industries, with both economic and environmental costs. The use of biocide-containing paints poses a serious threat to marine ecosystems, affecting both target and non-target organisms driving science and technology towards non-biocidal solutions based on physico-chemical and materials properties of coatings. The review reports recent development of hydrophobic protective coatings in terms of mechanical properties, correlated with the wet ability features. The attention is focused mainly on coatings based on siloxane and epoxy resin due to the wide application fields of such systems in the marine industry. Polyurethane and other systems have been considered as well. These coatings for anti-fouling applications needs to be both long-term mechanically stable, perfectly adherent with the metallic/composite substrate, and capable to detach/destroy the fouling organism. Prospects should focus on developing even “greener” antifouling coatings solutions. These coatings should also be readily addressable to industrial scale-up for large-scale product distribution, possibly at a reasonable cost.

“…In turn, the functionalization of GO with polyaniline/p-phenylenediamine conferred anticorrosion and AF properties to commercialized epoxy coatings [ 72 ]. Likewise, the modifications of GO materials with compounds such as cuprous oxide, acrylic acid, or boehmite nanorods, produced AF coatings with high self-cleaning performance and durability in marine environments (up to 6 months) ( Figure 7 ) [ 70 , 71 , 73 ].…”

Antifouling Performance of Carbon-Based Coatings for Marine Applications: A Systematic Review

Although carbon materials are widely used in surface engineering, particularly graphene (GP) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), the application of these nanocomposites for the development of antibiofilm marine surfaces is still poorly documented. The aim of this study was, thus, to gather and discuss the relevant literature concerning the antifouling performance of carbon-based coatings against marine micro- and macrofoulers. For this purpose, a PRISMA-oriented systematic review was conducted based on predefined criteria, which resulted in the selection of thirty studies for a qualitative synthesis. In addition, the retrieved publications were subjected to a quality assessment process based on an adapted Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies (MINORS) scale. In general, this review demonstrated the promising antifouling performance of these carbon nanomaterials in marine environments. Further, results from the revised studies suggested that functionalized GP- and CNTs-based marine coatings exhibited improved antifouling performance compared to these materials in pristine forms. Thanks to their high self-cleaning and enhanced antimicrobial properties, as well as durability, these functionalized composites showed outstanding results in protecting submerged surfaces from the settlement of fouling organisms in marine settings. Overall, these findings can pave the way for the development of new carbon-engineered surfaces capable of preventing marine biofouling.

“…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.
