Method and use of acidified modified polymers to bind biocides in paints

摘要: The invention herein relates to the method and use in an antifouling paint that specifically efficiently impede settlement of for example barnacles on aquatic structures, using imidazole containing compound, such as Medetomidine, bound a sulfonated, acid sulphate ester, phosphonic acid, carboxylic or phosphate ester modified polymer backbone polystyrene acrylate polymers. aim is employ biocide-polymer complexes additives self-polishing controlled release purposes.
