Smart coating with dual-pH sensitive, inhibitor-loaded nanofibers for corrosion protection

Abstract Smart coatings that provide corrosion protection on demand have received a lot of recent attention. In the present study, nanofibers containing a corrosion inhibitor were prepared by a coaxial electrospinning technique, which addresses the limitations of inhibitor-loaded microcapsules or na...
