Antifouling paints are usually contain a biocide, or toxin, held within the structure of the paint. The coating is designed to leach biocide slowly into the marine environment, preventing any organism adhering to the paint by poisoning the settling organisms. 7, record 1, English, - antifouling%20paint

Contact leaching paint, also known as hard-racing or long-life paints, are also free-association types but have an insoluble matrix. Continuous biocide release is generated by the high biocide concentration ensuring that biocide particles contact each other through the paint film. As surface biocide is released, microchannels are created which permit release of biocide from deeper in the coating. Biocide release rates decrease exponentially with time and effective life is again limited to periods rarely exceeding 18 months. 3, record 2, English, - contact%20leaching%20antifouling%20paint

Global environmental groups WWF [World Wildlife Fund] and Greenpeace are urging officials at this week's IMO [International Maritime Organization] diplomatic conference on antifouling to agree on a legal framework to phase out the use on ships of harmful organotins, including TBT [tributyltin]. The groups are pushing for IMO [International Maritime Organisation] to adhere to the proposed dates for a ban on applications of organotin-based antifouling paint by January 2003, and the presence of organotins in antifouling coatings by January 2008. 1, record 3, English, - organotin%2Dbased%20antifouling%20paint
