Definitions

  • Fouling of ship hulls by marine organisms has plagued shipping activities for millennia. Fouling presents a significant drag penalty, reducing the efficiency of propulsion and resulting in the expenditure of excess fuel to overcome the drag in order to meet target cruising speed. Fouling also results in the transport of organisms from foreign ecosystems and can result in the introduction of invasive species. Thus, from both an operational and ecological point of view, methods to reduce or eliminate fouling are necessary. Biological fouling of marine organisms on ships has serious consequences for ship performance and mission capability. Fouling results in a rougher surface and an increase in the overall drag of the ship. These may result in substantial increases in fuel consumption and overall voyage cost.
  • Fouling release (“FR”) coatings appear to be a leading non-toxic alternative to biocide containing coatings. These are coating systems that do not necessarily prevent the settlement of marine organisms, but permit their easy removal with the application of shear to the surface of the coating. Ideally, the hydrodynamic shear on the hull as a ship reaches cruising velocity would be sufficient to remove fouling organisms. Coatings that are also easily cleaned using a water jet are, however, also desired. The most successful of such coatings to date are based on silicone elastomers. It has been shown that coatings with low modulus and low surface energy can often provide easy release of fouling organisms. Due to their low modulus, however, these coatings are very often easily damaged. In addition, such fouling release coatings may also suffer from poor adhesion, poor durability, and high cost.

  • Self-stratifying coatings that phase separate into a low surface energy, low modulus top layer, with a tougher lower layer can be designed.
  • Self- stratifying coatings are coatings that are applied in a single step, but then spontaneously phase separate into two or more distinct layers upon application and film formation. Surface energy and viscosity are the main driving and/or controlling forces for self- stratification.
  • a coating composed of polymeric material with poly(dialkylsiloxane) (e.g., poly(dimethylsiloxane); "PDMS”) and polyurethane subunits may meet these requirements.
  • the PDMS component Since surface energy is a primary driving force, the PDMS component will form the top, low energy, rubbery layer.
  • the polyurethane component can form a tough durable underlayer.
  • An additional advantage of this system is that the isocyanate resins used to form the polyurethane may react with residual hydroxyl groups on an epoxy anticorrosion primer, providing good adhesion, thus eliminating the need for a tie layer between the corrosion coating and the fouling-release coating.
  • siloxane-polyurethane coatings can be carried out using PDMS polymers that have organo functional groups at one end of the polymer chain. One or more amino functional groups can be present at the chain end.
  • both ends of the PDMS chain are tethered to the coating and can potentially restrict the mobility of the PDMS segments on the surface of the coating.
  • Coatings that have a polysiloxane, such as PDMS, tethered at only one end can result in a highly mobile surface and may permit easier release of fouling organisms as illustrated in Figures 1 and 2.
  • Monofunctional PDMS polymers can be synthesized through the anionic ring- opening polymerization of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane ("D3"), a cyclic siloxane trimer, using an anionic initiator (see, e.g., Scheme 1).

  • the synthetic scheme for the synthesis of aminopropyl terminated PDMS is shown in Scheme 2.
  • the molecular weight of the PDMS can be readily varied by changing the ratio of the D3 to the lithium trimethylsiloxanoate initiator. Polysiloxanes having molecular weights from 500 to 30,000 g/mol can be readily prepared using this type of method.
  • the amount of PDMS incorporated into the siloxane-polyurethane coating system can be varied, e.g., from about 0.1 weight percent up to 30 weight percent.
  • the amount of PDMS incorporated into the siloxane-polyurethane coating system can be varied from 0.1 weight percent up to 30 weight percent. Siloxane-polyurethane coating system incorporating about 0.5 to 10 wt.% PDMS are quite suitable for many coating applications.
  • Suitable anionic initiators can include lithium trimethylsiloxanoate, n-butyl lithium and the like.
  • An additional advantage of using the mono-terminated PDMS is that it can be pre -reacted with the isocyanate crosslinker without gelation to form an adduct. This adduct can then be mixed with the organic polyol just prior to application to a surface to form a coating.
  • aminopropyl monoterminated PDMS were synthesized having a range of molecular weights from 2,000 to 30,000 (theoretical). These aminopropyl monoterminated PDMS were incorporated into a siloxane-polyurethane coating formulation containing a polycaprolactone polyol (Tone 0305 from Dow Chemical), and a polyisocyanate based on isophorone diisocyanate (IDT70B from Rhodia). The catalyst used was dibutyl tin diacetate (“DBTDA"). Coatings were prepared using 5 and 10% of the mono-amino functional PDMS.

  • Reaction with ethylene carbonate or propylene carbonate results in a hydroxyl alkyl carbamate mono-terminated PDMS.
  • a similar material can also be synthesized from trimethylolpropane diallyl ether and is illustrated in Scheme 5. This is a unique polymer in that it has a single isocyanate reactive functional group in the middle of a PDMS polymer.

BACKGROUND
[0003] Fouling of ship hulls by marine organisms has plagued shipping activities for millennia. Fouling presents a significant drag penalty, reducing the efficiency of propulsion and resulting in the expenditure of excess fuel to overcome the drag in order to meet target cruising speed. Fouling also results in the transport of organisms from foreign ecosystems and can result in the introduction of invasive species. Thus, from both an operational and ecological point of view, methods to reduce or eliminate fouling are necessary. Biological fouling of marine organisms on ships has serious consequences for ship performance and mission capability. Fouling results in a rougher surface and an increase in the overall drag of the ship. These may result in substantial increases in fuel consumption and overall voyage cost.
[0004] Fouling release ("FR") coatings appear to be a leading non-toxic alternative to biocide containing coatings. These are coating systems that do not necessarily prevent the settlement of marine organisms, but permit their easy removal with the application of shear to the surface of the coating. Ideally, the hydrodynamic shear on the hull as a ship reaches cruising velocity would be sufficient to remove fouling organisms. Coatings that are also easily cleaned using a water jet are, however, also desired. The most successful of such coatings to date are based on silicone elastomers. It has been shown that coatings with low modulus and low surface energy can often provide easy release of fouling organisms. Due to their low modulus, however, these coatings are very often easily damaged. In addition, such fouling release coatings may also suffer from poor adhesion, poor durability, and high cost.
SUMMARY
[0005] The present application is directed to a polymeric material which may be used to form fouling release coatings, e.g., for use in protecting boat hulls. The polymeric material may be prepared by reacting a mixture comprising: polyisocyanate; polyol; and polysiloxane having functional groups capable of reacting with the polyisocyanate. The polysiloxane component may have one or more functional groups capable of reacting with the polyisocyanate, where the isocyanate-reactive functional groups are attached to only a single end of the polyorganosiloxane chain(s). For example, the polysiloxane component may be an amino functional polyorganosiloxane, having one or more amino groups attached to a single end of the polyorganosiloxane chain.
[0006] The polymeric material may be used to form coatings which may have an initial water contact angle of at least about 90°. In some embodiments, the polymeric material may commonly have an initial water contact angle of at least about 100°, suitably may have an initial water contact angle of at least about 105°, and desirably may have an initial water contact angle of at least about 110°. In some embodiments, the water contact angle may change by no more than about 20° after immersion of the coating in deinonized water for 30 days. In some embodiments, the water contact angle may suitably change by no more than about 10°, and desirably the water contact angle may change by no more than about 5° after immersion of the coating in deinonized water for 30 days. In some embodiments, the polymeric material may be used to form a coating on a substrate which desirably has an initial pseudobarnacle pull off adhesion release force of no more than about 80N.
[0007] The polysiloxane components employed to form the present polymeric materials typically include polyorganosiloxane chain(s) which have a number average molecular weight of at least about 500. In some embodiments, the polyorganosiloxane may commonly have a number average molecular weight of at least about 1,000. In some embodiments, the polyorganosiloxane may desirably have a number average molecular weight of at least about 10,000.
[0008] In some embodiments, suitable polymeric materials may include those prepared by reacting a mixture comprising: an amino functional polyorganosiloxane (e.g., having a number average molecular weight of about 1,000 to 5,000); polyisocyanate; and polyol, such as a polycaprolactone polyol and/or a hydroxy-functional poly(meth)acrylate. In some embodiments, suitable polymeric materials may include those prepared by reacting a mixture comprising: an amino functional polyorganosiloxane (e.g., having a number average molecular weight of about 5,000 to 15,000); polyisocyanate; and polyol, such as a polycaprolactone polyol and/or a hydroxy-functional poly(meth)acrylate.
[0009] In one embodiment of the present application, crosslinked poly(dimethylsiloxane)-modified polyurethane coatings are described. Such coating can be formed from a mixture comprising the following components:
1. An organofunctional polysiloxane, such as poly(dimethylsiloxane) ("PDMS"), where the polysiloxane has one or more amino groups attached, typically via a linkage group, to a single end of the polymer chain;
2. an organic polyol, which can include a polyester, polyether, and/or acrylic polyol;
3. a polyisocyanate;
4. a catalyst to effect cure;
5. an optional pot- life extender; and
6. typically, one or more organic solvents.
[0010] In another embodiment of the present application, crosslinked polyorganosiloxane-modifϊed polyurethane coatings may be formed from a mixture comprising: polyisocyanate; polyol; and polyorganosiloxane. The polyorganosiloxane may have one or more hydroxyalkyl carbamate groups attached, typically via a linkage group, to only a single end of the polymer chain. In certain embodiment, the polyorganosiloxane may include hydroxyl alkyl carbamate groups which include two or more hydroxy groups.
[0011] In other embodiments, crosslinked polyorganosiloxane-modifϊed polyurethane coatings can be formed from a mixture comprising: polyisocyanate; polyol; and "star" polyorganosiloxane. For example, the "star" polyorganosiloxane may be prepared by reaction of a silane-terminated PDMS with a multifunctional reagent to form a molecule including one or more isocyanate-reactive functional group attached (e.g., via a linking group) to two or more PDMS polymer chains. The linking group may be a branched chain alkylene group, may include a hydroxyalkyl carbamate group and/or may include alkylene ether linkages. In some embodiments, the multifunctional reagent may comprise pentaerythritol triallyl ether, pentaerythritol diallyl ether and/or trimethylolpropane diallyl ether. Other suitable multifunctional reagents include partial allyl ethers of sorbitol or other similar polyols, e.g., reagents such as sorbitol di-, tri- or tetraallyl ethers.
[0012] The formation of crosslinked polyurethane coatings is well known in the literature and crosslinked polyurethane coatings are commonly formed from a mixture which includes an organic polyol and a polyisocyanate. Catalyst, pot life extender and/or solvents may also be included in formulations used to produce the present polymeric materials and coatings.
[0013] The organic polyols employed to form the present polymeric materials can be any polyol typically used to form crosslinked coatings. These can include polyester polyols, polyether polyols, polycarbonate polyols and acrylic polyols. A mixture of polyols can also be used in formulating a polyurethane coating. Polyester polyols can include those made from the melt polycondensation of polyfunctional acids with polyfunctional alcohols or those made from the ring opening polymerization of cyclic monomers such as epsilon-caprolactone. Acrylic polyols are typically made from the free radical polymerization of a mixture of ethylenically unsaturated monomers. One of the monomers must bear a hydroxyl functional group. Hydroxy- functional monomers include hydroxyethyl acrylate, hydroxyethylmethacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, and hydroxypropyl methacrylate.
[0014] In other embodiments, the present polymeric material may be prepared by reacting a mixture comprising: polyisocyanate; polyol; and a polysiloxane component having two or more polyorganosiloxane chains attached to a linker molecule, which has one or more functional groups capable of reacting with the polyisocyanate. For example, the polysiloxane component may have formula I:
Figure imgf000006_0001
where R'Si- is a terminal group; n is about 10 to 1,000; LINK is a linking group; X is - OH or -NH2; and y is an integer from 1 to 4. Examples of suitable linking groups ("LINK") include alkylene groups, which may have one or more oxygen, nitrogen or sulfur atoms substituted for a carbon atom of its backbone. Typically, the linking group has no more than about 10 atoms in its backbone. Suitable R'Si- terminal groups may be trialkylsilyl groups, such as R3Si- groups, e.g., Me3Si-, or R1R2Si- groups, e.g., BuMe2Si-.
[0015] In other embodiments, the present polymeric material may be prepared by reacting a mixture comprising: polyisocyanate; polyorganosiloxane having two or more functional groups capable of reacting with the polyisocyanate attached to only a single end of the polyorganosiloxane; and polyol. The polyorganosiloxane typically has (a) two or more amino groups or (b) two or more hydroxy groups attached to only a single end of the polyorganosiloxane.
[0016] Methods of inhibiting fouling on a surface exposed to aquatic conditions, such as a boat hull, comprising applying a fouling release coating composition to at least a portion of said surface hull are also provided. The application also describes surfaces designed to be exposed to aqueous conditions (e.g., salt water conditions, such as seawater or brackish water, or fresh water conditions, such as found with materials in contact with lake or stream water), which are protected with a coating including the polymeric materials described in the present application.
[0017] By synthesizing polysiloxane-modified (e.g., PDMS-modified) polyurethane coatings, it can be possible to generate coatings that have low surface energy surfaces, where the surfaces maintain low surface energy under water due to the crosslinking. The coatings may also be tough and have good adhesion to various substrates. The components can be mixed together and the applied to the substrate where the solvent evaporates and crosslinking takes place. Due to the low surface energy of the polysiloxane, this component may tend to preferentially rise to the surface of the coating. However, due to the isocyanate-reactive functional end group(s), e.g., amino-functional end group(s), the polysiloxane can react with isocyanate functional groups and become anchored to the polymer network.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] To provide coatings that exhibit fouling release behavior while also yielding improved durability, self-stratifying coatings that phase separate into a low surface energy, low modulus top layer, with a tougher lower layer can be designed. Self- stratifying coatings are coatings that are applied in a single step, but then spontaneously phase separate into two or more distinct layers upon application and film formation. Surface energy and viscosity are the main driving and/or controlling forces for self- stratification. A coating composed of polymeric material with poly(dialkylsiloxane) (e.g., poly(dimethylsiloxane); "PDMS") and polyurethane subunits may meet these requirements. Since surface energy is a primary driving force, the PDMS component will form the top, low energy, rubbery layer. The polyurethane component can form a tough durable underlayer. An additional advantage of this system is that the isocyanate resins used to form the polyurethane may react with residual hydroxyl groups on an epoxy anticorrosion primer, providing good adhesion, thus eliminating the need for a tie layer between the corrosion coating and the fouling-release coating.
[0027] The preparation of siloxane-polyurethane coatings can be carried out using PDMS polymers that have organo functional groups at one end of the polymer chain. One or more amino functional groups can be present at the chain end. In many reported siloxane-polyurethane coatings, both ends of the PDMS chain are tethered to the coating and can potentially restrict the mobility of the PDMS segments on the surface of the coating. Coatings that have a polysiloxane, such as PDMS, tethered at only one end, can result in a highly mobile surface and may permit easier release of fouling organisms as illustrated in Figures 1 and 2.
[0028] Monofunctional PDMS polymers can be synthesized through the anionic ring- opening polymerization of hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane ("D3"), a cyclic siloxane trimer, using an anionic initiator (see, e.g., Scheme 1). The PDMS chain can be terminated, e.g., using dimethyl chlorosilane, followed by hydrosilation to convert the chain end to the desired functional group.

Scheme 1. General synthesis of single end functional PDMS.
[0029] The synthetic scheme for the synthesis of aminopropyl terminated PDMS is shown in Scheme 2. The molecular weight of the PDMS can be readily varied by changing the ratio of the D3 to the lithium trimethylsiloxanoate initiator. Polysiloxanes having molecular weights from 500 to 30,000 g/mol can be readily prepared using this type of method. The amount of PDMS incorporated into the siloxane-polyurethane coating system can be varied, e.g., from about 0.1 weight percent up to 30 weight percent. The amount of PDMS incorporated into the siloxane-polyurethane coating system can be varied from 0.1 weight percent up to 30 weight percent. Siloxane-polyurethane coating system incorporating about 0.5 to 10 wt.% PDMS are quite suitable for many coating applications.

Scheme 2. Synthesis scheme for mono-aminopropyl terminated PDMS.
[0030] Suitable anionic initiators can include lithium trimethylsiloxanoate, n-butyl lithium and the like.
[0031] An additional advantage of using the mono-terminated PDMS is that it can be pre -reacted with the isocyanate crosslinker without gelation to form an adduct. This adduct can then be mixed with the organic polyol just prior to application to a surface to form a coating.
[0032] Several aminopropyl monoterminated PDMS were synthesized having a range of molecular weights from 2,000 to 30,000 (theoretical). These aminopropyl monoterminated PDMS were incorporated into a siloxane-polyurethane coating formulation containing a polycaprolactone polyol (Tone 0305 from Dow Chemical), and a polyisocyanate based on isophorone diisocyanate (IDT70B from Rhodia). The catalyst used was dibutyl tin diacetate ("DBTDA"). Coatings were prepared using 5 and 10% of the mono-amino functional PDMS. Coatings were tested for pseudobarnacle adhesion and surface energy initially as-made and after immersion in deionized water for 30 days. A siloxane-polyurethane coating incorporating the mono-aminopropyl terminated PDMS had low surface energy and very low pseudobarnacle adhesion. The data are shown in Table 1 and 2, below.
Table 1. Pseudobarnacle adhesion of siloxane-polyurethane coatings.

Table 2. Contact angle and surface energy data for siloxane-polyurethane coatings.
Figure imgf000011_0002
[0033] Other unique modified polysiloxane structures can be prepared by reacting an aminopropyl mono-terminated PDMS with a cyclic carbonate such as ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, or glycerin carbonate (see Scheme 3). Reaction with ethylene carbonate or propylene carbonate results in a hydroxyl alkyl carbamate mono-terminated polysiloxane.
[0034] Reaction with glycerin carbonate results in a dihydroxy alkyl carbamate mono- terminated PDMS. This PDMS polymer has two reactive functional groups (the hydroxyls) at one end of the polymer chain. As above, use of this functionalized polysiloxane could result in a highly mobile surface, providing low surface energy and low adhesion of fouling organisms, however, it can be incorporated into a cross linked polymer network quite differently than the siloxane polymers having a single functional chain. Reaction with ethylene carbonate or propylene carbonate results in a hydroxyl alkyl carbamate mono-terminated PDMS.

Scheme 3. Synthesis of hydroxyl alkyl carbamate mono-terminated PDMS and dihydroxy alkyl carbamate mono-terminated PDMS.
[0035] Additional architectures of the PDMS polymer are also possible using the synthetic strategy shown in Scheme 2. For example, the silane terminated PDMS can be reacted with a multifunctional reagent such as pentaerythritol triallyl ether to yield a hydroxyl-functional PDMS "star", as shown in Scheme 4. When incorporated into a polyurethane coating, this architecture has the potential to yield a highly mobile PDMS surface due to the branched structure of the PDMS. A model for the possible morphology of a siloxane-polyurethane coating made from this "star" PDMS is shown in Figure 3.
Figure imgf000013_0001
Scheme 4. Synthesis of monofunctional "star" PDMS.
[0036] A similar material can also be synthesized from trimethylolpropane diallyl ether and is illustrated in Scheme 5. This is a unique polymer in that it has a single isocyanate reactive functional group in the middle of a PDMS polymer.
[0037] To form the siloxane-polyurethane coatings from these polymers, the siloxane is typically combined with an additional organic polyol plus a polyisocyanate. Optionally, a catalyst may be present to accelerate the curing and solvents may also be used. In addition, a pot life extender may be used in the coating formulation.
[0038] The organic polyol may be a polyether polyol, such as poly(ethyleneglycol), poly(propylene glycol), poly(butylene glycol) or poly(tetramethylene oxide); a polycarbonate polyol, a polyester polyol, or an acrylic polyol. Examples of suitable polyester polyols are poly(caprolactone) polyols or poly(hexamethylene adipate) and the like.

Figure imgf000014_0002
Scheme 5. Synthesis of functional PDMS.
[0039] Acrylic polyols may be synthesized from a mixture of at least one hydroxy functional monomer plus one or more non-functional monomers. Suitable hydroxy functional monomers are hydroxyethyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, hydroxypropyl methacrylate and the like. Examples of nonfunctional monomers are styrene, methyl methacrylate, methyl acrylate, butyl methacrylate, butyl acrylate, lauryl methacrylate, lauryl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, 2- ethyl hexyl methacrylate and the like. The acrylic polyol is synthesized in solution using a thermally-activated free radical initiator. The polyol can be synthesized in either a batch, semi-batch or continuous process. Examples of free radical initiators are benzoyl peroxide, t-amyl peroxy2-ethylhexanoate, t-butyl hydroperoxide, di-t-butyl peroxide, azobisisobutyronitrile, azobisisovaleronitrile, and the like.
[0040] Solvents for the acrylic polyol polymerization can be toluene, xylene, methylisobutyl ketone, etc. The polymerization is conducted at a temperature suitable to effect polymerization in a reasonable period of time and is dependent on the initiator used. Polymerization can be carried out in the range of 700C to 1800C.
[0041] The polyisocyanate used in the invention can be either aromatic or aliphatic, or cycloaliphatic. Polyisocyanates based on methylene diphenyl diisocyanate ("MDI"), hexamethylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, and the like can be used. [0042] Catalysts for the crosslinking can be either organometallic complexes or organic bases. Examples of organometallic compounds are dibutyl tin dilaurate, dibutyl tin diacetate, bismuth carboxylate, and compounds of zirconium and aluminum such as K- Kat 4205, K-Kat-5218, and K-Kat-XC-6212. Examples of organic base catalysts are sold under the DABCO trade name by Air Products. DABCO is 1,4- diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane.
[0043] Solvents used in the formulation can be solvents typical of that used in coatings systems. These can include toluene, xylene, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl amyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, butyl acetate, t-butyl acetate, ethyl ethoxy propioniate, isopropanol and the like.
[0044] Pot life extenders can include volatile compounds that inhibit the curing reaction such as 2-4-pentanedione.
[0045] Pigments can be included in the formulation if a coating having a particular color is desired.
[0046] The siloxane-polyurethane coatings may commonly have an initial water contact angle of at least about 90°, suitably of at least about 100°, more suitably of at least about 105°, and desirably of at least about 110°. The water contact angle may commonly change after immersion of the polymeric material in deinonized water for 30 days no more than about 20°, suitably no more than about 10°, and desirably no more than about 5°. The polymeric material may commonly have an initial pseudobarnacle pull off adhesion release force of no more than about 80N.
EXAMPLES
[0047] The following examples are presented to illustrate the compositions and methods described herein, and to assist one of ordinary skill in making and using the same. The examples are not intended in any way to otherwise limit the scope of the invention.
Example 1: Synthesis of Aminopropyl Terminated PDMS and Use in Coatings Synthesis of APT-PDMS-M
[0048] Synthesis of the mono functional aminopropyl terminated oligomer ("APT- PDMS-M") is carried out in two steps. In the first step, anionic polymerization is carried out to synthesize a silane -terminated macromer. Then, the macromer is functionalized through hydrosilation with protected allyl amine (see Scheme 2).
Macromer Synthesis
[0049] Hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane ("D3") was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran ("THF") at a concentration of 50 wt%. The solution was degassed by bubbling nitrogen ("N2") gas through it. Lithium trimethylsilanolate ("LTMS") salt was added to the solution to initiate polymerization at room temperature. The amount of LTMS added was varied in molar ratios to D3 to achieve four molecular weights (1,000, 5,000, 10,000, and 15,000 g/mol). After 24 hours of reaction time, the living polymerization was terminated by the addition of diemthylchlorosilane ("CDMS") at 2-5°C. The terminating agent, CDMS, was added in excess (100% molar) to ensure termination of all "living" polymer chain ends. Table 3 summarizes the amounts of D3 monomer solution, LTMS initiator, and CDMS terminating agent that were used for the polymerization and termination. The solutions were filtered to remove THF and a lithium chloride ("LiCl") salt precipitate formed, causing the polymer to appear cloudy. The LiCl precipitate was removed by vacuum filtration to yield a clear, monohydride terminated poly(dimethyl siloxane) ("PDMS") macromer ("HT-PDMS-M"). The synthetic procedure for the PDMS macromer synthesis is shown in Scheme 6.

Macromer Functionalization
[0050] A protected allylamine, N-Allyl-N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)amine ("Allyl-HMDS"), was added to the HT-PDMS-M. Hydrosilylation was carried out at 600C in the presence of Karstedt catalyst (Platinum(0)-l,3-divinyl-l,l,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane complex) of which 1 drop of solution in xylene had been added. Table 4 summarizes the reaction times and reagents used to carry out the hydrosilylation reactions. The products of the hydrosilylation reactions were called disilazane terminated PDMS macromers ("DT- PDMS-M"). The primary amine groups of the DT-PDMS-M were then deprotected by washing with methanol (30 mL) to yield aminopropyl terminated PDMS macromers ("APT-PDMS-M"). The synthetic procedure for functionalization of the PDMS macromers is shown in Scheme 7.

Characterization of PDMS Macromers
[0051] The HT-PDMS-M were characterized using gel permeation chromatography ("GPC"), to confirm the molecular weight of the macromers. The number average molecular weight ("MW"), weight average MW, and polydispersity index ("PDI") obtained from GPC analysis, relative to polystyrene standards, are shown in Table 5. Table 5: Molecular weight data for HT-PDMS-M.

Coating Formulation
[0052] Polyurethane ("PU")-PDMS coating formulations were prepared using the APT- PDMS-M, isophorone diisocyanate trimer ("IDT", 70% in butyl acetate ("BA"), Tolonate IDT 70B), a polycaprolactone polyol ("PCL", Tone polyol 0305), dibutyltin diacetate ("DBTDAc") as a catalyst, 2,4-pentanedione ("PD") as a pot-life extender and methyl amyl ketone ("MAK") and ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate ("EEP") as solvents. The APT- PDMS-Ms (30% in EEP), PCL polyol (90% in MAK) and DBTDAc (1% in MAK) were used as solutions for formulation purposes while Tolonate IDT 7OB was used as supplied (70% in BA). The coatings were formulated with a 1.1 :1 ratio of isocyanate to hydroxyl and amine equivalents. The coating formulations are outlined in Table 6 with reagent quantities for approximately 10 grams of total formulation. The coating formulations were prepared by first mixing the APT-PDMS-M solutions with IDT for 1 hour. The PD was added and the formulation was mixed. The addition of PCL polyol and DBTDAc solutions followed in that order. The compositions of the coating formulations are summarized in Table 7.

Figure imgf000020_0002
Coating Preparation
[0053] The coatings were prepared by drawdown (10 mil wet thickness) onto 4" x 8" aluminum Q-panels in an array format using an automated coating application instrument (Symyx). The coatings were also manually dispensed into 24-well microtiter plates with primed aluminum discs adhered at the base of each well using a repeat volume pipettor (250μL per well). The coatings were cured at ambient conditions overnight and then oven cured at 800C for 45 minutes the following morning. Silicone controls coatings, DC 3140 and T2 Silastic, were prepared in the same way, but curing was performed at ambient conditions for 24 hours and the samples were not oven cured. Pseudobarnacle Adhesion
[0054] Pseudobarnacle adhesion ("PB") was performed on the coatings approximately 20 hours after initial attachment of the test studs. This test was performed before and after 21 days of water immersion. The results from this test are outlined in Table 8. The values reported are averages of three measurements, unless otherwise noted. Overall, the siloxane-polyurethane coatings showed very low PB adhesion, showing removal forces much lower than the polyurethane without siloxane and also lower than the silicone controls. The results for the siloxane-polyurethane coatings are also similar before and after water immersion, indicating that the coatings are stable under water.

Figure imgf000021_0001
*Only 2 measurements were included (3rd measurement was near IN and determined as an outlier) Contact angle and surface energy
[0055] Contact angle ("CA") measurements were performed on coatings on 4" x 8" aluminum panels using water and methylene iodide ("MeI") before and after 21 days of water immersion. Table 9 summarizes the water and MeI contact angles, along with surface energy ("SE") before and after water immersion. The reported values are the averages of three measurements. The data confirm that the coatings are stable when immersed in water and do not rearrange to yield a more hydrophilic surface due to the crosslinked nature of the films. Furthermore, the coatings exhibited low surface energy compared to the PU control, confirming the presence of PDMS at the surface of the coatings.

[0056] The data from the C. lytica biofϊlm retention (performed on coatings deposited in 24-well plate) bioassay is shown in Figure 4. The C. lytica was allowed to attach in from a 5% culture. A growth period of 24 hours was allowed, followed by rinsing in triplicate and staining with crystal violet ("CV '). Acetic acid was used to extract the CV stain and the absorbance of the extract solution was measured at 600 nm. Very low biofϊlm retention was observed for all of the experimental coatings, which exhibited lower retention than the silicone controls. In addition, leachate toxicity was not observed.
N. incerta Bioassay
[0057] The data from the Navicula incerta attachment bioassay is shown in Figure 5, illustrating the amount of diatoms that initially attached to the coatings (performed on coatings deposited in 24-well plate). The N. incerta was allowed to attach to the coatings for 2 hours (0.03 OD culture), the chlorophyll was extracted with DMSO, and fluorescence was measured to determine the relative amounts of attached organisms. Coatings 2 and 6 showed very low attachment of N. incerta while coatings 5 and 8 showed reduced N. incerta attachment compared to the other experimental and reference coatings. Coatings 1, 3, 4, and 7 showed a similar level of attachment as the DC, T2, and PU control coatings. Figure 6 shows data obtained when the attached N. incerta were removed by water jetting. The same attachment procedure was used as previously described; the samples were exposed to a 10 psi water jet, and the attachment was quantified in the manner described above. While low values of attachment are desired, a high level of removal of the organisms is desired, and was observed in some cases, as shown in Figure 6. Coating 2 showed the highest level of N. incerta removal while coatings 1, 4, and 7 showed moderate removal and 3, 5, and 8 showed low removal and coating 6 showed no removal at all. While the identification of a trend is difficult in the case of this data, the coatings with higher molecular weight PDMS (10,000 g/mol and 15,000 g/mol) seemed to show reduced attachment and greater release compared to those prepared with lower molecular weight PDMS.
Barnacle reattachment bioassay
[0058] Barnacle reattachment was performed by allowing live barnacles to reattach to the surface of the coatings for a period of 14 days after removal from a silicone surface.
Testing was performed on coatings applied to Al panels. The barnacles were removed using a digital force gauge and their removal forces were recorded. Initially, the test was performed at 14 days of water immersion and very low barnacle reattachment forces were obtained (Table 10). However, when the procedure was repeated on coatings that had been subjected to water immersion for 49 days, higher removal forces were obtained. Although the reattachment forces were higher for the coatings subjected to the longer water immersion time, the coatings with higher molecular weight PDMS (10,000 g/mol and 15,000 g/mol) performed the best in both cases, with lower release forces than the other coatings, including the silicone controls.

49 days of pre-leaching.

N. incerta bioassay
[0059] A similar bioassay to the N. incerta assay described above was performed on the same coatings (on Al panels), excluding the PU control (Coating 9), but with the addition of an Intersleek fouling-release control. However, attachment was allowed until a thick bio film was observed, water jetting was performed to remove the bio film and removal was estimated visually. The results from the water jet removal are outlined in Table 11. In general, the coatings prepared with the lower molecular weight PDMS (1,000 g/mol and 5,000 g/mol) showed greater diatom release than those prepared with the higher molecular weight PDMS macromers.

Ulva sporeling bioassay
[0060] Fouling-release studies using Ulva sporelings were carried out. Ulva sporelings were allowed to adhere to the test coatings (deposited into 24-well plates) for seven days and the amount of attachment was measured by extracting the chlorophyll and measuring fluorescence. This data are shown in Figure 7 as the mean of 6 replicates and error bars representing 95% confidence limits. The sporelings were removed by water jetting at 64 kPa and this data is shown in Figure 8. Coatings 5, 6, 1 , and 8 performed comparably to the T2 control (60-80% removal), which is typically performs well as a fouling-release coating in this bioassay. The other coatings also had better removal than the polyurethane without the siloxane. Example 2: Synthesis of Branched PDMS and Use in Coatings Macromer Synthesis
[0061] Hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane ("D3") was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran ("THF") at a concentration of 50 wt%. The solution was degassed by bubbling nitrogen ("N2") gas through it. Lithium trimethylsilanolate ("LTMS") salt solution (1.0M in CH2Cl2) was added to the solution to initiate polymerization at room temperature. The amounts of LTMS and D3 added were in the appropriate molar ratios to achieve a final molecular weight of 5,000 g/mol. After 24 hours of reaction time, the living polymerization was terminated by the addition of dimethylchlorosilane ("CDMS") at 2-5°C. The terminating agent, CDMS, was added in excess to ensure termination of all "living" polymer chain ends. The amount of D3 monomer solution, LTMS initiator, and CDMS terminating agent that were used for the polymerization and termination are shown in Table 12. The solutions were rotary evaporated to remove THF and excess CDMS. A lithium chloride ("LiCl") precipitate, caused the polymer to appear cloudy. The LiCl precipitate was removed by vacuum filtration to yield a clear, monohydride terminated poly(dimethyl siloxane) ("PDMS") macromer ("HT-PDMS-M").

Macromer Functionalization
[0062] For functionalization, the PDMS, stoichiometric amounts of allyl ether were dissolved in toluene at a concentration of 30% solids. The solutions were degassed by bubbling N2 through them. Hydrosilylation was carried out at 600C in the presence of Karstedt's catalyst (1 drop of catalyst in xylene (2.1-2.4% Pt) was added). The reactions were run for 77 hours in 25-27 hour increments, but an Si-H peak remained at 4.7 ppm in 1H NMR. Therefore, an excess of polyol was added and the reactions were run for 25 hours at 600C. The reactions had completed (absence of Si-H peak), but residual allyl peaks were observed in 1H NMR. Table 13 summarizes the reagent amounts used for the hydrosilylation reactions, with and without the addition of excess allyl ether. Scheme 8 shows the reaction schemes for the functionalization of the branched PDMS macromers. The allyl ethers used to synthesize branched PDMS macromers are: allyl pentaerythritol ("APE"), trimethylolpropane diallyl ether ("TMPDE": 90% diallyl ether), trimethylolpropane monoallyl ether ("TMPME"), and allyloxyethanol ("AOE). The solvent was evaporated from the samples using the Genevac (mid- low boiling point, 12 hours, 65°C, overnight). The macromers were extracted several times with methanol to remove color and to remove the unreacted ally ether polyol.

Macromer Characterization
[0063] The HT-PDMS-M was characterized using gel permeation chromatography ("GPC"), to confirm the molecular weight of the macromers. The branched macromers were also characterized by GPC. The number average molecular weight ("MW"), weight average MW and polydispersity index ("PDI") of the macromers, obtained from GPC analysis, relative to polystyrene standards, are shown in Table 14.

Coating Formulation
[0064] Polyurethane ("PU")-PDMS coating formulations were prepared using the APT- PDMS-Ms, isophorone diisocyanate trimer ("IDT", 70% in butyl acetate ("BA"), Tolonate IDT 70B), a polycaprolactone polyol ("PCL", Tone polyol 0305), dibutyltin diacetate ("DBTDAc") as a catalyst, 2,4-pentanedione (PD) as a pot-life extender and methyl amyl ketone ("MAK") as solvent. The PCL polyol (90% in MAK) and DBTDAc (1% in MAK) were used as solutions for formulation purposes while Tolonate IDT 7OB was used as is (70% in BA). The PDMS macromers were used neat. The coatings were formulated with a 1.1 :1 ratio of isocyanate to hydroxyl and amine equivalents. The coating formulations are outlined in Table 15 with reagent quantities for approximately 10 grams of total formulation. The coating formulations were prepared by first mixing the PDMS-M with the polyol solution overnight. The PD was added and the formulation was mixed. The addition of IDT 7OB and DBTDAc solutions followed in that order. The coating formulations are summarized in Table 15 while their compositions are outlined in Table 16.

Pseudobarnacle Adhesion
[0065] Pseudobarnacle adhesion ("PB") was performed on the coatings approximately 20 hours after initial attachment of the studs. This was performed on the as-made samples. The results from this test are shown in Table 17. The three reported values are averages of three measurements, unless otherwise noted. The samples prepared with Allyloxyethanol-PDMS-M were delaminated at the substrate-coating surface (or the adhesive was left on the coating and delamination occurred between the PB and the epoxy) when the PB was removed. A similar observation was made for one or more testing replicates of the following samples: TMPE-PDMS-M-5, and TMPE-PDMS-M-I. Table 17: Pseudobarnacle adhesion results before water immersion.
