Coatings for Zebra/Quagga Mussel Control

Product Number: 41210-571-SG

Author: Allen Skaja

Publication Date: 2010

$20.00

This research investigated antifouling coatings, foul-release coatings, and fluorinated powder coatings for mussel control. Parker Dam, on the Colorado River, was selected for our test site due to the rapid reproduction rates of the quagga mussels. Zebra mussels were first introduced in the United States in the 1980’s by foreign vessels in the Great Lakes. The rapid migration of the mussels west prompted the US Bureau of Reclamation to examine technologies that might reduce their impact on water resources infrastructure. Many new materials and coating products have been developed to deter the attachment of mussels onto infrastructure.
