Synthesis of biomimetic segmented polyurethanes as antifouling biomaterials.
Controlling the non-specific adsorption of proteins, cells and bacteria onto biomaterial surfaces is of crucial importance for the development of medical devices with specific levels of performance. Among the strategies pursued to control the interactions between material surfaces and biological tissues, the immobilization of non-fouling polymers on biomaterial surfaces as well as the synthesis...
متن کاملHull roughness and antifouling paint
The fouling of ships and propellers results in a reduction of speed, increased fuel consumption, and consequently, losses of both time and money. The previous studies found that a speed reduction of 0.03 knots would occur due to increased friction resulting from 10μm increase in surface roughness. This would increase fuel consumption by 1%, energy savings can then be easily converted into emiss...
متن کاملCopper emissions from antifouling paint on recreational vessels.
Trace metals, especially copper, are commonly occurring contaminants in harbors and marinas. One source of copper to these environs is copper-based antifouling coatings used on vessel hulls. The objective of this study was to measure dissolved copper contributions from recreational vessel antifouling coatings for both passive leaching and hull cleaning activities. To accomplish this goal, three...
متن کاملNovel Polybutadiene Diols for Thermoplastic Polyurethanes
Krasol® polybutadiene diols are anionically polymerized products characterized by very narrow molecular weight distribution, linear structure of polymer chains and the absence of species with functionality higher than 0.2. These unique features make them suitable as hydrophobic polyol components for use in thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs). Various TPU formulations were developed using polybut...
متن کاملWorldwide occurrence and effects of antifouling paint booster biocides in the aquatic environment: a review.
Organic booster biocides were recently introduced as alternatives to organotin compounds in antifouling products, after restrictions imposed on the use of tributyltin (TBT) in 1987. Replacement products are generally based on copper metal oxides and organic biocides. This ban has led to an increase in alternative coating products containing the above biocides. The most commonly used biocides in...
