Engineering materials and devices can be damaged during their service life as a result of
mechanical fatigue, punctures, electrical breakdown, and electrochemical corrosion. This …

Compared with the common self-healing coating, the self-healing polymer/graphene
composite coating has better self-repairing ability and anti-corrosion performance. This is …

Novel hybrid halloysite nanotubes (HHNTs) were developed and used as smart carriers for
corrosion protection of steel. For this purpose, as-received halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) …

Bio-inspired dopamine have attracted immense scientific interest in the surface modification
field due to the high bio-adhesive properties for varies substrate. Herein, the polydopamine …

Corrosion of steel structures in reinforced concrete structures in coastal areas has long been
an urgent concern. In this study, a combined corrosion inhibitor, consisting of benzotriazole …

Aiming at the prevention and control of acid mine drainage (AMD) at the source for a long-
term period, herein, we report for the first time an active passivation coating with self-healing …

Smart polymeric composite coatings demonstrating multilevel self-healing characteristics
were developed and characterized. The pH-responsive smart carriers were synthesized by …

A newly designed smart self-healing epoxy coating system comprised of modified halloysite
nanotubes (HNTs) having capping is proposed for corrosion protection of steel. In the first …

In this study, halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were first etched with H 2 SO 4 or NaOH and then
loaded with a green corrosion inhibitor (sodium benzoate, SB) under vacuum …

Corrosion Protection at the Nanoscale explores fundamental concepts on how metals can
be protected at the nanoscale by using both nanomaterials-based solutions, including …
