Stimuli-Responsive Epoxy Coatings with pH-Triggered Self-Healing for Long-Term Marine Corrosion Protection
Marine steel structures suffer severe corrosion from continuous seawater exposure, chloride ions, and mechanicaldamage, while conventional epoxy coatings provide limited protection after coating failure. This research develops three pH-triggered self-healing epoxy coatings using a zinc-rich epoxy primer on American Soc...
