A novel strategy by combination of surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and in situ chemical oxidative graft polymerization was employed to tether stainless steel (SS) with poly(4-vinylaniline)-polyaniline (PVAn-PANI) bilayer coatings for mitigating biocorrosion by sulfate-r...
