    Octyltin mercaptides function as effective biocides in ship hull coatings by releasing tin ions that inhibit the growth of marine organisms. This antifouling mechanism disrupts cellular processes, leading to the prevention of biofilm formation and attachment of fouling species on the hull surface. The slow release of these tin ions ensures long-lasting protection against marine fouling, enhancing the efficiency and longevity of marine vessels.

    The use of organotin biocides in the marine industry has significantly declined due to growing environmental concerns. Once widely employed to prevent biofouling on ships, these compounds have been linked to severe ecological damage, including endocrine disruption and reproductive issues in non-target species. Regulatory actions, such as the International Maritime Organization's ban on tributyltin (TBT) coatings, have further accelerated the decline in organotin usage. As a result, the marine industry is increasingly turning to alternative antifouling technologies that are less harmful to the environment.
