Sustainability Evaluation of AquaSun Antifouling Coating Production

Rosaria Ciriminna

Resumen

Relying on a cost-effective and green process that is technically and economically feasible on large scale is not enough to call a technology ?sustainable?. We thus evaluate the sustainability of the production of the new ?AquaSun? antifouling sol?gel coating with reference to each of the three main dimensions (economic, social, and environmental) of sustainable development. This study will hopefully assist in overcoming the ?not invented here? syndrome that still affects many sol?gel technologies, including antifouling coatings derived via the sol?gel process.
