Abstract
- A controlled release method of antifouling agent was demonstrated via the model coating which was fabricated by sodium paeonolsilate (PAS) intercalated into Zn 2 Al Layered Double hydroxides (LDH) and then dispersed in the mixture of acrylic resin and colophony with weight ratio of 2:1. The powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) confirm the intercalation of PAS into the galleries of Zn 2 Al-LDH. Some larger particles of Zn 2 Al-PAS-LDH composite in the coating were observed owing to its aggregation, which was revealed by Laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM). The release tests of the Zn 2 Al-PAS-LDH coating in 3.5% NaCl solution showed that no burst release phenomenon occurred at the beginning stage and a slower release rate of PAS (0.54 ppm/d) was obtained compared with the pristine PAS coating (1.06 ppm/d), exhibiting its preferable controlled release behavior. The adhesion experiment using Ulva zoospores indicated that Zn 2 Al-PAS-LDH composite obviously increases the utilization rate of PAS owing to its controlling release property. Therefore, the present work provided a useful strategy to decrease the waste of antifouling agent and prolong the lifetime of antifouling coatings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
