“…With the further analysis of twice dissociation, a characteristic was observed that more amine groups are occupied by sulfate ion with two negative charges than Cl À with only one negative charge under the equal concentration and the amount of charges plays an important role in this comparative test. The previous studies reported various resins with amine groups had high efficiency adsorption behavior of inorganic anions [37,38]. The increasing electrostatic interactions between the negatively charged ions and positively charged amine groups cause an increase in the anions adsorption.…”

“…Silver nanoparticles loaded in halloysite nanotubes could also be another prospect, due to their antimicrobial activity while being non-harmful to higher organisms. Silver nanoparticles have been extensively studied due to their antiseptic properties and their inhibition of biofilms, and their clay encapsulation promises advantages in long-lasting protection [28,29]. Combination of silver nanoparticles with DCOIT loaded into an antifouling coating show synergetic effects against fouling [30].…”

An antifouling epoxy resin doped with natural clay nanotubes that are loaded with biocide or silver allowed extended protection against the proliferation of marine microorganisms. Compared to the 2-3 months of protection with antifoulant dichlorooctylisothiazolone (DCOIT) directly admixed into epoxy resin, the DCOIT release time of the halloysite formulations was extended to 12 months by incorporating biocide-loaded nanoclay in the polymer matrix. The protective properties of the epoxy-halloysite nanocomposites showed much less adhesion and proliferation of marine bacteria Vibrio natriegens on the resin surface after a two-month exposure to seawater than the coating formulations directly doped with non-encapsulated DCOIT. The coating formulation protection efficiency was further confirmed by twelve-month shallow field tests in the South China Sea. Replacing 2 wt.% biocide in the traditional formula with DCOIT-loaded natural environmentally friendly halloysite clay drastically improved the antifouling properties of the epoxy coating, promising scalable applications in protective marine coating. The antifouling property of epoxy resin was enhanced with silver particles synthesized on halloysite nanotubes. A natural mixture of MnO particles and halloysite could also be used as a nonbiocide additive to marine coating. The short-term White Sea water test of epoxy coating with 5% of Ag-halloysite composite of MnO-halloysite natural mixture showed no visible fouling.

“…Recently, Idora et al [20] examined the effectiveness of mangrove tannin/zinc tannate (TZn) as antibiofilm agent against biofilm forming bacteria and reported that the TZn could inhibit bioflim formation by the bacteria at 35 mg/ml concentration. Similarly, Yee et al [21] investigated the role of silver‐polymer nanocomposite (Ag‐PNC) in the inhibition of biofilm formation by Halomonas pacifica and found out that the significant inhibition of biofilm formation was observed with increased Ag content. In this study, we have prepared TEOS sol–gels as a matrix for the introduction of biosynthesised AgNPs.…”

“…More recently, Ag‐PNC system employing Dowex protonated copolymer ion exchange resins as a templating matrix have been developed. This material showed significant inhibition of biofilm formation by marine fouling bacterium Halomonas pacifica and non‐significant morphological changes in non‐target marine organism suggesting its biocompatibility [21]. In this study, the antimacrofouling activity of the biosynthesised nanoparticles was determined using molluscs viz.…”

Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using plants is considered to be cost effective and more eco-friendly than conventional techniques. In the authors' previous study, they reported the biosynthesis of AgNPs using fruit extract of Aegle marmelos which were of spherical shape and high crystallinity. In order to achieve enhanced synthesis, optimisation of process parameters influencing the yield of AgNPs has been carried out in this study. Box-Behnken design has been employed to optimise the parameters in order to enhance the synthesis of AgNPs. The antimicrofouling activity of the optimised AgNPs was determined by preparing AgNPs doped TEOS sol-gels (SNSGs) and evaluating their antibiofilm activity. In addition to this, antimacrofouling activity of the AgNPs was studied against molluscs viz. Patella sp. and Trochus sp. as model organisms. Anticrustacean assay was also performed with the larvae of brine shrimp (Artemia salina) as a model crustacean fouling organism. The results indicated that the AgNPs could completely inhibit the attachment of molluscs and significantly increased the percentage of mortality against crustacean fouling larvae. Thus, this study gives scope for the possible development of formulations containing AgNPs as effective antifouling agents that could prevent the adhesion of micro and macrofoulers thereby preventing marine biofouling.
