Polysiloxane-ether-urethane-acrylic hybrid emulsions were prepared by introducing different polydimethylsiloxane content into the acrylic-terminated backbone...
In a research work, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was used as organosilane to decorate the surface of graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets by SiO2 nanospheres via...
Safety in the marine industry is set to be improved after three industry partners joined forces to develop a drone capable of remotely inspecting enclosed spaces ...
Controlled release of antifoulant is critical for marine antibiofouling. Researchers have prepared polyurethane with degradable polyester segments and used...
Global concerns about the high toxicity of antifouling paints have highlighted the need to develop less toxic antifouling coatings. In a study, researchers tested ...
Researchers have demonstrated graphene coating protects glass from corrosion. Their work can contribute to solving problems related to glass corrosion in several ...
A simple, one-step method has been developed to construct a corrosion-resistant bionic superhydrophobic surface by solve-thermal process in an ethanol and water...
In a study, the atmospheric corrosive protection characteristics of four organic coatings were modeled based on the evolution of low-frequency impedance over ...
In a study, ZnO nanoparticles ranging from 1 to 8% (w/w) were introduced into a hybrid acrylic-silicone polymeric matrix to achieve nanocomposite coating systems...
Scientists have developed a new protective coating that could eventually be used to waterproof mobile phones, prevent ice from forming on aeroplanes or protect boat ...
Through a novel process, metals can permanently be joined with nearly all other materials, become water-repellent, or improve their biocompatibility. The pre-treatment...
An independent test programme investigating the addition of graphene nanoplatelets (A-GNPs) to epoxy coatings, has shown significant performance enhancements...
