Abstract

This dataset accompanies the article "Diffusely Charged Polymeric Zwitterions as Loosely Hydrated Marine Antifouling Coatings" by Shawn D. Mengel, Wen Guo, Guangyao Wu, John A. Finlay, Peter Allen, Anthony S. Clare, Riddhiman Medhi, Zhan Chen, Christopher K. Ober, and Rachel A. Segalman in Langmuir in 2023 (LINK). The article demonstrates that more diffusely charged polymeric zwitterions have improved surface hydration, which correlates with improved fouling resistance to Ulva linza. This dataset contains the necessary experimental data to reproduce the main text and supporting figures. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, vibrational sum frequency generation spectra, marine fouling assays, and contact angle measurements are included.
