Abstract:
Multi-layer anti-fouling coatings and methods of forming the same include a first biocidal layer formed on a surface. The first biocidal layer includes at least one biocidal biocide that kills a biofouling organism on contact with the first biocidal layer. A first biostatic layer is formed between the first biocidal layer and an external environment. The first biostatic layer includes at least one biostatic biocide that inhibits a biofouling organism from attaching to the first biostatic layer.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 11 , further comprising applying a sheet of perforated material to the first biologically active inner layer before applying the second biologically active outer layer to provide structural support and stiffness, wherein the second biologically active outer layer is painted onto the surface before the first biologically active inner layer is fully cured to form one continuous fused coating, where the first biologically active inner layer and the second biologically active outer layer are each formed from multiple respective coatings at different concentrations of the respective biologically active agents in each layer.
