Système à copolymères autopolissants. L'eau de mer hydrolyse le liant à copolymères, libérant lentement, à un taux contrôlé, le biocide du tributylétain et la résine à copolymères. Des performances antisalissures uniformes sont obtenues tout au long de la vie de la peinture. Les peintures autopolissantes à base de tributylétain remportèrent naturellement - et continuent de connaître- un énorme succès auprès de l'industrie des transports maritimes. 1, record 1, French, - peinture%20autopolissante%20%C3%A0%20base%20de%20tributyl%C3%A9tain
