摘要
Coatings designed for applications as non-toxic non-fouling coatings have been prepared. Conventional coatings used in this application suffer from lack of adhesion to the substrate and lack of mechanical strength. Both of these detriments were overcome in this work by using a two-coat system: a basecoat which provides adhesion to the substrate, mechanical strength, and reactivity with the topcoat, and a topcoat which provides a non-toxic antiadhesive surface to discourage attachment of marine organisms. Five examples of such two-coat systems are described, in which the basecoat is a polybutadiene or urethane, and the topcoat is a silicone or hydrocarbon.
