Experimental Assessment of the Performance of Two Marine Coatings to Curb Biofilm Formation of Microfoulers

Biofilms formed on submerged marine surfaces play a critical role in the fouling process, causing increased fuel consumption, corrosion, and high maintenance costs. Thus, marine biofouling is a major issue and motivates the development of antifouling coatings. In this study, the performance of two c...
