An inorganic nanomaterial for continuous formaldehyde removal includes the following components in part by mass: 20-30 parts of water, 0.1-0.3 parts of cellulose, 0.1-0.2 parts of a defoamer, 0.3-0.6 parts of a dispersant, 0.3-0.6 parts of a wetting agent, 20-25 parts of titanium dioxide, 5-10 parts of kaolin, 10-15 parts of heavy calcium, 30-40 parts of modified inorganic hybrid resin, 0.1-1 part of a film-forming additive, and 0.1-1 part of propylene glycol. After inorganic hybrid modification, an ammonia group is introduced, which can continuously and effectively decompose formaldehyde in the environment. A coating film not only has good anti-mildew, anti-algae, fire prevention, and heat insulation functions, but also has a continuous formaldehyde removal function. The formaldehyde removal efficiency is greater than 95%. The durability of formaldehyde purification effect is 90%.

The present invention is directed to environmentally benign coatings that can prevent fouling of submerged structures and surfaces in the marine environment. The coating is essentially a grease composition composed of an organic acids salt, mineral oil, a solvent and alkaline silicate. The sulfonate thickener is an oil soluble dispersing agent selected from a plurality of organic acids in a form of alkali metal salt or alkaline earth metal salt thereof, such as calcium sulfonate. Coating compositions of the invention can be used to coat surfaces, such that when such surfaces are exposed to or kept submerged in seawater they will prevent fouling of such surfaces when exposed to the marine environment for extended time.
