Abstract
Surface-active polymers derived from styrene monomers containing siloxane (S), fluoroalkyl (F) and/or ethoxylated (E) side chains were blended with an elastomer matrix, either poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) or poly(styrene-b-(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-styrene) (SEBS), and spray-coated on top of PDMS or SEBS preformed films. By contact angle and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements, it was found that the surface-active polymer preferentially populated the outermost layers of the coating, despite its low content in the blend. However, the self-segregation process and the response to the external environment strongly depended on both the chemistry of the polymer and the type of matrix used for the blend. Additionally, mechanical testing showed that the elastic modulus of SEBS-based coatings was one order of magnitude higher than that of the corresponding PDMS-based coatings. The coatings were subjected to laboratory bioassays with the marine alga Ulva linza. PDMS-based coatings had superior fouling-release properties compared to the SEBS-based coatings.

Abstract
The antifouling efficacy of a series of 18 textured (0.2-1000 μm) and non-textured (0 μm) polydimethylsiloxane surfaces with the profiles of round- and square-wave linear grating was tested by recording the settlement of fouling organisms in the laboratory and in the field by monitoring the recruitment of a multi-species fouling community. In laboratory assays, the diatoms Nitzschia closterium and Amphora sp. were deterred by all surface topographies regardless of texture type. Settlement of propagules of Ulva sp. was lower on texture sizes less than the propagule size, and settlement of larvae of Saccostrea glomerata and Bugula neritina was lower on texture sizes closest to, but less than, the sizes of larvae. After a six month field trial, all textured surfaces lost their deterrent effect; however, the foul-release capabilities of textures were still present. High initial attachment was correlated with most fouling remaining after removal trials, indicating that fouling organisms recruited in higher numbers to surfaces upon which they attached most strongly.

Abstract
Polymeric reverse osmosis membranes were modified with antifouling polymer brushes through a 'layer by layer' (LBL) mediated method. Based on pure physical electrostatic interaction, the attachment of LBL films did not alter separation performance of the membranes. In addition, the incorporation of an LBL film also helped to amplify the number of potential reaction sites on the membrane surfaces for attachment of antifouling polymer brushes, which were then attached to the surface. Attachment of the brushes included two different approaches, grafting to and grafting from. Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and water contact angle measurements showed successful growth of the LBL films and subsequently the polymer brushes. Using this method to modify reverse osmosis membranes, preliminary performance testing showed the antifouling properties of the as-modified membranes were much better than the virgin membrane with no significant loss in water flux and salt rejection.

Abstract
In this paper, a series of fluorinated amphiphilic copolymers composed of 2-perfluorooctylethyl methacrylate (FMA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) monomers were prepared, and their surface properties and antifouling performance were investigated. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human plasma fibrinogen (HFg) were used as model proteins to study protein adsorption onto the fluorinated amphiphilic surfaces. All the fluorinated amphiphilic surfaces exhibit excellent resistant performance of protein adsorption measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The surface compositional heterogeneities on the molecular scale play an important role in the antifouling properties. It was found that the copolymers exhibited better antifouling properties than the corresponding homopolymers did, when the percentage of hydrophilic hydroxyl groups is from 4% to 7% and the percentage of hydrophobic fluorinated moieties is from 4% to 14% on the surface. In addition, the protein molecular size scale and the pattern of microphase segregation domains on the surface strongly affect the protein adsorption behaviors. These results demonstrate the desirable protein-resistant performance from the fluorinated amphiphilic copolymers and provide deeper insight of the effect of surface compositional heterogeneity and microphase segregation on the protein adsorption behaviors.

Abstract
Degradable polyurethane (PU) with copolyester oligomer consisting of ε-caprolactone (CL) and glycolide (GA) as the soft segments has been prepared by a combination of ring-opening polymerization and condensation reaction. Enzymatic and hydrolytic degradation experiments demonstrate that the PU can degrade in seawater. Such a polyurethane exhibit a more rapid degradation in comparison with that with poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) soft segments because the introduction of GA can reduce the crystallinity, as revealed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarizing optical microscope (POM). Marine field tests show that the degradable polyurethane has good antifouling ability due to its self-renewal property. Besides, such polyurethane can serve as a carrier and controlled release system for an antifoulant, and the incorporation of an antifoulant in the polyurethane can significantly improve the antifouling ability and duration.

Abstract
A conventional MDI-BD-PTMO polyurethane was modified using 2 wt.% polyurethanes (U) having copolyoxetane soft blocks with hydrophobic 3F, CF3CH2OCH2- and hydrophilic MEn, CH3O(CH2CH2O)nCH2-, n = 3, 7) side chains. In contrast to neat 3F-co-MEn-U, 2 wt.% 3F-co-MEn-U compositions have physically stable morphologies and wetting behavior. Surface composition (XPS) and amphiphilic or contraphilic wetting are controlled by the 3F-co-MEn polyoxetane soft block architecture and MEn side chain length. Importantly, θrec can be tuned for 2 wt.% 3F-co-MEn-U compositions independent of swelling, which is controlled by the bulk polyurethane. AFM imaging led to a new morphological model whereby fluorous/PEG-hard block nano-aggregates combine to form near surface features culminating in micron scale texturing.

Abstract
Fouling of complex food components onto food-processing materials affects food quality, food safety, and operating efficiency. Developments in nonfouling and fouling-release materials for biomedical and marine applications enable the potential for adaptation to food applications; however, challenges remain. The purpose of this review is to present different strategies to prevent fouling and/or facilitate foulant removal with a critical point of view for an application of such materials on food-processing surfaces. Nonfouling, self-cleaning, and amphiphilic materials are reviewed, including an explanation of the mechanism of action, as well as inherent limitations of each technology. Perspectives on future research directions for the design of food processing surfaces with antifouling and/or fouling release properties are provided.
