摘要
Copolymers of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and acrylate terminated poly(ethylene oxide-co-ethylene carbonate) (PEOC) macromonomer (PEOCA) were synthesized, and the degradation of the polymers was investigated by use of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D). It is shown that the polymeric surface exhibits degradation in seawater depending on the content of the side chains. Field tests in seawater show that the surface constructed by the copolymer can effectively inhibit marine biofouling because it can be self-renewed due to degradation of the copolymer.
