Nano ZnO/acrylic coating for antifouling applications

Fouling causes huge material and economic costs in maintenance of mariculture, shipping, naval vessels, and seawater pipelines, etc. Prevention of biofouling is an important property expected of coatings in these fields. In the present work, we prepared nano ZnO/acrylic latex by mechanical mixing as...
