2D Nanomaterials Reinforced Organic Coatings for Marine Corrosion Protection: State of the Art, Challenges, and Future Prospectives

Abstract

Two‐dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, with extraordinary physical and chemical characteristics, have long been regarded as a promising nanofiller in organic coatings for marine corrosion protection. The past decade has witnessed the high‐speed progress of 2D nanomaterials reinforced organic composite coatings, and plenty of breakthroughs have been achieved as yet. This review covers an in‐depth and all‐around outline of the up‐to‐date advances in 2D nanomaterials modified organic coatings employed for marine corrosion protection realm. Starting from a brief introduction of 2D nanomaterials, with the preparation strategies and properties is illustrated. Subsequently, diverse protection models based on composite coatings for marine corrosion protection are also introduced, including physical barrier, self‐healing, as well as cathodic protection, respectively. Furthermore, computational simulations and critical factors on the corrosion protection properties of composite coatings are clarified in detail. Finally, the remaining challenges and prospects for marine corrosion protection based on 2D nanomaterials reinforced organic coatings are highlighted.This article is protected by copyright.
