Abstract  

Balanus reticulatus is a macrofouling organism that is widespread in the sea areas of China and lots of sea areas in the world. Herein, the effects of surrounding factors on the settlement of Balanus reticulatus cyprids on the TC4 Ti-alloy and the glass which are highly biocompatible were investigated via observations of the settlement of Balanus reticulatus cyprids. The results showed that the settlement ratio on the TC4 Ti-alloy surface and the settlement ratio on the overall surface of TC4 Ti-alloy and glass reached the maxima when pH was 8 for the artificial seawater, which were 10% and 76.7%, respectively. The highest settlement ratio 73.3% on the overall surface of TC4 Ti-alloy and glass was in the seawater of 25‰ salinity, whereas the highest settlement ratio 6.67% on the TC4 Ti-alloy in seawaters of salinity between 13‰ to 18‰. The temperature and the flow velocity of the seawater also influenced the cyprid settlement significantly. At 10oC, the cyprids did not settle. However, the settlement ratio on the TC4 Ti-alloy and the settlement ratio on the overall surface of TC4 Ti-alloy and glass were 10% and 50% at 25oC, respectively. The corresponding two settlement ratios all reached the highest values in the still seawater. The cyprids did not settle when the seawater flow velocity was 12 m/s. These results threw a light on the anti-biofouling for marine facilities.
