Investigation of Cuprous Oxide Anti-Fouling Paint-II Inactivation of Highly Pigmented Films Containing Metallic Copper

Abstract

An earlier investigation has established the fact that highly pigmented films containing metallic copper perform as cathodes when applied to steel surfaces and immersed in the sea. It is a well recognized fact that copper cathodes are readily fouled when exposed to environments of high fouling intensity. The present investigation describes experiments designed to establish the degree to which highly pigmented films containing metallic copper may become inactivated when in contact with steel.
