Three-dimensional flower-like shaped Bi5O7I particles incorporation zwitterionic fluorinated polymers with synergistic hydration-photocatalytic for enhanced marine antifouling performance

Herein, several novel composite films consisting of three-dimensional (3D) Bi5O7I flower-like shaped microsphere and zwitterionic fluorinated polymer (ZFP) were successfully fabricated with the aim of achieving high anti-fouling performance. The prepared Bi5O7I flower-like shaped microsphere particles with diameters in the range of 2∼3 μm were uniformly distributed on the surface and in the internal of ZFP. Benefiting from the hydration layer...
