Advances in Nanotechnology for Marine Antifouling

Advances in Nanotechnology for Marine Antifouling surveys the latest research in the application of nanotechnology for biofouling inhibition. The book gathers in-depth information on the various micro and nano-techniques, nanocoatings, polymeric composites paints, methods of application and prevention mechanisms. This is a valuable resource for researchers and advanced students across anti-biofouling, nanotechnology, nanomaterials, polymer nanocomposites, coatings, maritime technology, chemistry, chemical engineering, environmental science, and materials science and engineering. This is also essential reading for industrial scientists, engineers, R&D, and other professionals with an interest in the use of nanotechnology for antifouling, particularly in the maritime sector.

Nanotechnologies have been recognized as a powerful tool in antifouling strategies with nanocoatings with efficient properties enabling increased durability and performance in the prevention of biofouling and corrosion while replacing potentially more harmful chemicals.
