NANO-BASED SELF-HEALING ANTI-CORROSION COATING

摘要

The present invention is directed to a synergistic multilayer anit-corrosion resistant coating for a metal surface, the coarting having three subcoatings, a) a self assembled monolayer nanoprimer; b) a polymeric primer; c) a polymeric top coat containing microcapsules for self-healing. The present invention is further direction to systems and methods for producing the coating in situ on the metal surface. The present invention provides an economical, non- epoxy-based, corrosion coating having favorable resistance to acid and to salt water, and having favorable adhesion properties.
