Multifunctional graphene nanofiller-enabled epoxy coating for synergistic corrosion visualization, self-healing, and long-term resistance

Key Points

• Corrosion visualization shows enhanced effectiveness with the new epoxy coating, which improves long-term resistance.
• The addition of graphene nanofiller increases the self-healing capacity of the coating, contributing to its durability.
• Assessment involved thorough testing of the coating properties under accelerated corrosion conditions across various environments.
• This innovative approach supports advances in protective coatings, but further testing in real-world applications is needed.
