ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the use of voltaic cells in both leachable and non-leachable vehicles which is a unique concept. It relates to the use of hard abrasive vehicles. It relates to the use of vehicles that will permit the voltage to provide a current when the circuit is closed. The concept of a multiplicity of voltaic cells generating a voltage within the paint makes it possible to eliminate toxic ingredients such as Copper, Copper salts such as Cuprous Oxide, Mercury and its salts and other toxic ingredients such as Tributyl Tin Oxide with great benefit to the environment. The non-leachable vehicle eliminates or reduces the loss of electromotive force generating within the paint so that the paint is capable of remaining effective for years instead of the usual life of one growing season.
