摘要

The International Paint and Printing Ink Council's (IPPIC) Antifouling Work Group (AFWG) has produced a position paper that provides a methodology for determining the efficacy of antifouling coatings by panel testing on static floating rafts. The document provides guidance on how to conduct, assess, record, and report results from efficacy evaluations, and was developed to address questions regarding the efficacy of antifouling coatings.
