TriButylTin based self‐polishing coatings (TBT‐SPC) were smart solutions to the marine fouling problem. Mechanism of self‐polishing were extensively studied and modelled. The aim of this study is to describe the modeling in details and use simulation results to provide insight into the interaction of temprature and some design parameters and a possible basis for accelerated evaluation of new self‐polishing coatings.
