Evaluation of in-service speed performance improvement by means of FDR-AF (frictional drag reducing anti-fouling) marine coating based on ISO19030 standard
Abstract In previous reports by the authors, the drag reduction performance of a novel frictional drag reduction self-polishing copolymer (FDR-SPC) was presented. The drag-reducing functional compound polyethylene glycol methacrylate (PEGMA) was used in the synthesis process, thereby allowing the re...
