| Abstract | Foul-release marine coatings are viable alternatives to broad-spectrum biocidal coatings. Efficient and economical methods for field testing and screening of novel foul-release coatings are needed to address performance and stability. Short-term tests that challenge coatings with heavy fouling conditions, by employing small coupons, are desirable to coating developers as this method allows many formulations to be screened at lower material cost and time. By coupling the field test to a miniature waterjet cleaning test, foul-release coatings may also be assessed for ease of fouling removal. Here, the feasibility of using small coupons over large panels for screening of foul-release coatings in static immersion field tests is investigated. Experimental and commercial foul-release coatings were field tested using a large panel, long term (1 year) test and a small coupon, short term (1 month) test. Results were very similar between the two assays, with each clearly distinguishing coating that performed well from those that performed poorly. The method may serve as a useful initial screen for early stage coatings. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
