BIOLOGICAL AND PHYSICO CHEMICAL FACTORS INFLUENCING THE EFFICACY OF ANTI-FOULING PAINTS

Biological and physico-chemical factors, affecting the intensity of poison liberation from antifouling paints, influence the efficacy of the latter. Marine fouling, initiated by available free-swimming larvae of fouling organisms ready to settle and attach themselves, may occur on a freshly submerged neutral surface either before or after the development of the entire primary slime film.
