This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will develop the technology for manufacturing nano-structured polymer coatings that will prevent aquatic biofouling of submerged man-made surfaces in an environmentally safe way. The unique cellular structure of the nano-domained coatings proposed will not only combine all the most desirable properties of the existing anti-biofouling coatings but will also provide for complete or at least significantly reduced pollution by effective binding (through a combination of strong chemical complexation forces and physical steric hindrance) of selected repellants for the fouling nuisance organisms. This program will focus on the coatings for ship/boat hulls used in both marine and fresh water environments. These unique nano-structured coatings are also expected to have a very broad impact and large commercial effects in a variety of other water-based industries, ranging from shipping, fishing, tourism and defense, to production of energy in hydroelectric plants, protection of shorelines, production of potable water by desalination of sea water or from biofoulant-infested fresh-water sources, etc.

该小型企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目将开发制造纳米结构聚合物涂层的技术，该技术将以环境安全的方式防止水下人造表面的水生生物污染。所提出的纳米结构域涂层的独特蜂窝结构不仅将联合收割机组合现有抗生物污染涂层的所有最期望的性质，而且还将通过有效结合（通过强化学络合力和物理空间位阻的组合）所选择的用于污染公害生物体的驱避剂来提供完全的或至少显著减少的污染。该计划将专注于在海洋和淡水环境中使用的船舶/船体涂层。这些独特的纳米结构涂层也有望在各种其他水基工业中具有非常广泛的影响和巨大的商业效应，从航运、渔业、旅游和国防，到水力发电厂的能源生产、海岸线保护、通过海水淡化或从生物污染物滋生的淡水源生产饮用水等。
