Synthesis of robust and multifunctional microcapsules for protective coatings used in marine and offshore environments

During service, anticorrosion coatings in seawater are susceptible to wear and scratched damages resulting in the re-exposure of steel substrates. Smart coatings are prepared by formulating microcapsules in polymeric coatings, where healing agents can be released to seal scratches or as lubricant to...
