Abstract
Disclosed is a method of inhibiting the growth of marine organisms on a marine structure, by applying dihydropyridazinone and pyridazinone compounds onto or into the marine structure. These compounds may be directly incorporated into the marine structure during manufacture, directly applied to the structure, or applied to the structure by means of a coating.
