Thorn-DŽ is a patented non-toxic antifouling technology that provides a physical
barrier for biofouling. By applying very specific short fibres (thorns) on a surface,
the surface becomes prickly and unattractive for fouling organisms to settle. By
using excellent water based adhesion techniques, Thorn-DŽ is expected to last for
the lifetime of the current nets in the case of use in Aquaculture. During this
period, Thorn-DŽ treated surfaces will be free of especially the hard type of biofouling.
Thorn-DŽ has proven to be effective against both hard and soft fouling by testing
at different locations of the world. Thorn-DŽ has been researched and refined for
years. The product is patented. It can be applied on a variety of materials and
currently there are three major substrate materials for the Aquaculture market that
Micanti is developing further. DyneemaŽ as a high-end high strength material, Nylon
as the bulk material being used for aquaculture nets and tests have started to apply
the material to steel nets for special purposes. In addition test are being done
on foils that have proven to be very effective and the product can also be applied
directly to for instance buoys.
