Nanomaterials-Based Coatings: Fundamentals and Applications

by Phuong Nguyen Tri (Editor), Sami Rtimi (Editor), Claudiane M. Ouellet-Plamondon (Editor)

Overview

Nanomaterials-Based Coatings: Fundamentals and Applications presents the fundamental concepts and applications of nanomaterial-based coatings in anticorrosion, antiwear, antibacterial, antifungal, self-cleaning, superhydrophobic, super hard, super heat resistance, solar reflective, photocatalytic and radar absorbing coatings. It is an important resource for those seeking to understand the underlying phenomenal and fundamental mechanisms through which nanoparticles interact with polymeric and metallic matrices to create stronger coatings. As nanomaterials-enforced coatings are smarter, stronger and more durable, the information listed in this book will helps readers understand their usage and further applications. - Highlights the latest methods in design, preparation and characterization techniques for nanomaterials-based coatings - Discusses emerging applications of nanomaterials-based coatings, including substrates protection, sustainable energy, and in the environment and healthcare - Assesses the major challenges in making nanomaterials-based coatings more reliable and cost-effective
