Fouling control coating compositions comprising polysiloxane and pendant hydrophilic oligomer/polymer moieties

摘要

Disclosed herein is a fouling control cured paint coat comprising a polysiloxane-based binder matrix, said binder matrix having included as a part thereof pendant hydrophilic oligomer/polymer moieties, preferably poly(oxyalkylenes) and not containing a biocide. Also disclosed is the use of a reactive polysiloxane component modified with pendant hydrophilic oligomer/polymer moieties for improving the antifouling properties of a polysiloxane based coating composition.
