Physicochemical and biological characterization of Sea Water in Mamonal zone (Cartagena Bay) for static antifouling paint testing

The incrustation of marine organisms (biofouling) affect several submerged metallic structures, like ship hulls. Biofouling frequently induces metal corrosion, reduces the speed of displacement, increases fuel consumption, and increases the frequency of dry-dock operations. Antifouling paints which...
