Abstract
Copper and copper alloys have proven to be highly effective in preventing zebra mussel biofouling. The present laboratory measurements reveal that the rate of copper release (mg/m2/day) from surfaces in flowing lake water is inversely proportional to the number of zebra mussels adhering to similar surfaces in Lake Erie. Data are shown for copper, copper-nickel alloys (90:10, 80:20, and 70:30), a copper-epoxy coating, and galvanic couples of copper connected to zinc or aluminum.
