Abstract
A smart coating integrating functions of corrosion inhibition, self-healing, and corrosion-sensing was developed based on a polyaniline (PANI) microsphere-loading corrosion sensing probe (8-hydroxyquinone, 8-HQ). The PANI microsphere was prepared in a facile one-pot process via the combination of photopolymerization and an emulsion template. The 8-HQ-loaded PANI microsphere achieved three synergetic effects simultaneously: corrosion inhibition, corrosion sensing, and photothermal self-healing abilities. Benefiting from the corrosion inhibition effect of PANI, the coating with the PANI microsphere exhibited significantly enhanced anticorrosion behavior. After soaking in NaCl solution for 35 days, its impedance was maintained at 1.26 × 109 Ω·cm2, nearly 3 orders of magnitude higher than that of pure resin coating. Meanwhile, the encapsulated 8-HQ exhibited pH-responsive release behavior thanks to the pH-responsive characteristics of PANI, which could chelate with Al3+ ions to form 8-HQ-Al3+ coordinates with a conspicuous fluorescence, achieving a real-time corrosion diagnosing function. Moreover, benefiting from the photothermal property of PANI, the coating with the PANI microsphere displayed rapid crack closure behavior under NIR light irradiation, and the healing efficiency could reach 83.56% under near-infrared irradiation. This work presents an innovative strategy for fabricating an intelligent self-healing, self-reporting, and anticorrosion coating, which provides a new vision to prolong the lifetime of metals.
