DOI: 10.1016/j.porgcoat.2017.07.001
Abstract: Abstract The addition of block copolymers (i.e. oils) is a common technique to enhance the biofouling-resistance properties of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based fouling-release coatings. These copolymers diffuse from the bulk to the surface of the coating, thus… read more here.
