In view of the limited period of protection of cuprous oxide-based antifouling coatings in fouling-rich regions and the danger of copper of accumulation in waters and sediments in semi-enclosed areas, need for longer protection periods with less polluting effects has emerged. In this paper tributyltin fluoride is used as an alternative to cuprous oxide in preparation of a variety of paints meant for fouling resistance for long periods. The results of testing in natural environment of high fouling intensity are very primising with respect to animal organisms but not very much so with respect to paint fouling. (Wassmann)
