Biofouling on the hull of a boat. Tributyltin (TBT) is an umbrella term for a class of organotin compounds which contain the (C 4 H 9) 3 Sn group, with a prominent example being tributyltin oxide.For 40 years TBT was used as a biocide in anti-fouling paint, commonly known as bottom paint, which was applied to the hulls of ocean going vessles.ven with its ban, TBT presents a danger to the environment. One of the most problematic aspects of TBT is its accumulation in sediments and its long half life of about 2 years. TBT often bonds to suspended material and sediments to the bottom, where it can remain and be released for up to 30 years.
