This work reports the synthesis and characterization of silica nanocapsules with biologically-
active compounds 2-mercaptobenzothiazole and 4, 5-dichloro-2-octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one …

The problem of marine biofouling persists in marine resource development, particularly for
marine observation. While nanomaterials with enzyme-mimicking activity show promise in …

Biofouling is one of the key factors which limits the long-term performance of seawater
sensors. Common measures to hinder biofouling include toxic paints, mechanical cleaning …

This study aimed to investigate the toxicity of innovative antifouling nanostructured biocides
DCOIT and silver associated to silica nanocapsules (SiNC) on the tropical microcrustacean …

Silica aerogel-encapsulated biocide crystals can potentially enhance the protection
efficiency of antifouling coatings, thereby lowering the impact on nontarget aquatic life. In the …

Catechol functionalized comb-shaped poly (N-vinylpyrrolidone)(CA-PLL-PVP) copolymer
could be easily coated on the surface of a microporous polypropylene membrane for …

The scope of the current research was to assess the feasibility of encapsulating three
commercial antifouling compounds, Irgarol 1051, Econea and Zinc pyrithione, in …

Advances in Nanotechnology for Marine Antifouling surveys the latest research in the
application of nanotechnology for biofouling inhibition. The book gathers in-depth …

A facile biofouling-resistant surface coating was developed based on catechol-conjugated
poly (N-vinylpyrrolidone)(CA-PVP). CA-PVP can be securely and effectively coated on glass …

The aim of this chapter is to survey approaches being explored to combat or mitigate fouling,
with a primary focus on coating systems. Biocidal coating systems (systems which release …
