HYDROLYZABLE RESIN CONTAINING ALDEHYDE BONDED THERETO AND SELF-POLISHING ANTIFOULING PAINT

摘要

As a vehicle resin used for self-polishing antifouling paints, a vinyl polymer having a plurality of primary amino groups in the form of Schiff base in the molecule is used. The films of an antifouling paint containing this vehicle resin gradually release an aldehyde exhibiting antifouling activity from the Schiff base group upon hydrolysis with sea water, while the film gradually dissolves from the surface.
