Problems solved by technology

One difficulty with encapsulation is that in order for the paint film to remain resistant to contaminating microorganisms for a long period of time, the release rate of the biocide from the microcapsules must be low
Unfortunately, this results in very low initial concentrations of free biocide and thus limited initial control of contaminating microorganisms

Embodiment 1

[0041] Microencapsulation of DCOIT with solvent diluent

[0042] An aqueous phase was prepared consisting of: 160 grams each of 5% strength (strength) PVA in water, (Vinol from AirProducts TM 540 and Vinol TM 125) and 300 grams of water. The aqueous phase was heated to 40°C.

[0043] A core material was prepared as a mixture of 100 g of DCOIT (97%) and 100 g of a substituted aromatic solvent SAS310 (manufactured by Nisseki Chemical), and the mixture was heated to 40°C. The aqueous phase and core material were added to a 1 quart Waring Blender jar and the resulting slurry was emulsified at medium speed for about 15 minutes to produce an oil-in-water emulsion with droplet sizes in the range of about 10-40 microns. Transfer this emulsion to a 1 liter beaker. The slurry was slowly agitated with the impeller of the impeller while maintaining the temperature at about 40°C. A solution of 4 grams of urea and 10 grams of resorcinol in 60 grams of water was slowly added to the emul...

[0045] Microencapsulation of pure DCOIT biocide

[0046]Microencapsulation of pure DCOIT was performed in a continuous aqueous phase, resulting in microcapsules containing amino-formaldehyde shells. An aqueous phase was prepared consisting of 27.5 grams of a 3.75% ethylene maleic anhydride copolymer (manufactured by Zeelan Chemical Company) solution and 30.37 grams of water, heated to 45°C. In another vessel, 32.5 grams of DCOIT (97%) was added and heated to 45°C to form a liquid melt. Emulsions were prepared as follows: The molten DCOIT core material was dispersed in the aqueous phase using an Ika-Works stirrer bar and a high speed vortex, where the vortex speed was controlled to produce DCOIT droplets mostly in the range of 10-50 μm. While maintaining the temperature at 45°C during the emulsification process, 5.58 g of Cymel 385 produced by Cytec was added to stabilize the emulsion. After about 15 minutes, the stirring speed was reduced and an additional 1.79 grams of Cyme...

[0048] DCOIT microcapsules with double shells of acrylic acid and PVA-urea-resorcinol-glutaraldehyde

[0049] The internal phase was prepared by mixing: DCOIT (150 g), methyl methacrylate (10 g), butanediol 1,4-diacrylate (10 g) and trimethylolpropane trimethylol, molten at about 50°C Acrylate (10g). Immediately before emulsification, terbutyl perpivalate (1 g) was mixed into the above internal phase. Homogenize the internal phase into a mixture containing PVA (Elvanol produced by DuPont) within 10 minutes with a Waring 1 liter blender. TM 50-42) (6g) in water (254g) until a stable emulsion formed. The emulsion was then transferred to a 1 liter beaker with overhead stirring, calorimetry and nitrogen supply and deoxygenated with nitrogen for 1 hour while heating to 90°C. After removal of nitrogen, the emulsion was maintained at 90°C for 1.5 hours and then cooled to 45°C. The resulting emulsion contained polymer particles each containing a polymer shell encapsulating DCOIT w...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to mixtures of encapsulated biocides and free biocides. In particular, the present invention relates to mixtures of encapsulated 4,5-dichloro-2-n-octyl-3(2H)-isothiazolone ("DCOIT") and free biocide. The present invention also relates to marine anti-pollution coatings and coatings incorporating free biocides and encapsulated DCOIT, and the use of free biocides and encapsulated DCOIT in marine anti-pollution coatings and coatings. Background technique [0002] Manufacturers of marine coatings and coatings routinely incorporate biocides into their coatings to prevent or inhibit the detrimental attack on coating films by microorganisms such as, for example, a ) soft polluting organisms such as fungi such as molds and yeasts, and bacteria, algae and cyanobacteria, and b) hard polluting organisms such as barnacles, shrimp and tube worms. [0003] The effectiveness of biocides in marine antifouling coatings depends on the conc...
