Marine fouling is a worldwide challenge with huge damages on industrial structures, side
effects on economics of industries, and environmental and safety-related hazards. Different …

Polydimethylsiloxane containing methacryloyloxy and methoxy silane groups (MAPDMS)-
microcapsule-SiO2 (MPMS) functional materials were prepared by constructing micro-nano …

Any equipment submerged in the ocean will have its surface attacked by fouling organisms,
which can cause serious damage. Traditional antifouling coatings contain heavy metal ions …

Silicone elastomer coatings have attracted increasing attention owing to their eco-friendly
nature, excellent fouling release ability and drag-reducing property. However, the poor …

The coexistence of superior antifouling ability and strong substrate adhesion is a typical
trade-off for a silicone coating but is highly desirable in numerous applications. Herein, we …

The development of nontoxic antifouling coatings in static marine environments is urgent.
Herein, the successful synthesis of sulfobetaine borneol fluorinated polymers (PEASBF) by a …

Abstract Poly (ethylene glycol)(PEG)-based graft copolymers have been widely applied for
the modification of poly (dimethyl siloxane)(PDMS)-based coatings that resist marine …

Silicone-based coatings are vulnerable to marine fouling organisms in static environments,
which seriously hampers its practical application. Here, an amphiphilic acrylate polymer is …

Two types of amphiphilic random terpolymers, poly (ethylene glycol methyl ether
methacrylate)-ran-poly (2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidinyloxy methacrylate)-ran-poly …

Molecular-scale compositional heterogeneities can slash the nonspecific interaction
between proteins and surfaces, resisting surface contamination. In this work, an amphiphilic …
