  • Process for forming antifouling coating and antifouling material having antifouling coating
    Publication number: 20040131895
    Abstract: The present invention provides a process for forming an antifouling coating containing a photocatalyst and amorphous titanium peroxide with substantially no photocatalytic capability provided on a treatment face of a substrate having a surface made of a plastic or a rubber, including a step of performing dry treatment for introducing a hydrophilic group to the treatment face of the substrate, and a step of forming the antifouling coating by applying an aqueous coating agent containing the photocatalyst and the amorphous titanium peroxide with substantially no photocatalytic capability to the treatment face of the substrate after the dry treatment. It is preferable that the above-mentioned dry treatment is a plasma discharge treatment, corona discharge treatment or ultraviolet irradiation treatment. The present invention also provides an antifouling material having an antifouling coating formed by the process for forming an antifouling coating of the present invention.
