“…The conditions in a real sea environment are very complex, so the functional lifespan of the A-H DL coating is unsure. Therefore, it is necessary to construct a mechanism to monitor the protective performance of the A-H DL coating and invent a convenient method to maintain it [38,39]. We propose two monitoring strategies here.…”

Traditional anti-corrosion and anti-fouling coatings struggle against the harsh marine environment. Our study tackled this by introducing a novel dual-layer hydrogel (A-H DL) coating system. This system combined a Cu2O–SiO2–acrylic resin primer for anchoring and controlled copper ion release with a dissipative double-network double-anchored hydrogel (DNDAH) boasting superior mechanical strength and anti-biofouling performance. An acrylamide monomer was copolymerized and cross-linked with a coupling agent to form the first irreversible network and first anchoring, providing the DNDAH coating with mechanical strength and structural stability. Alginate gel microspheres (AGMs) grafted with the same coupling agent formed the second reversible network and second anchoring, while coordinating with Cu2+ released from the primer to form a system buffering Cu2+ release, enabling long-term antibacterial protection and self-healing capabilities. FTIR, SEM, TEM, and elemental analyses confirmed the composition, morphology, and copper distribution within the A-H DL coating. A marine simulation experiment demonstrated exceptional stability and anti-fouling efficacy. This unique combination of features makes A-H DL a promising solution for diverse marine applications, from ship hulls to aquaculture equipment.

This state-of-the-art overview emphasizes electrospinning technique and resulting electrospun nanofibers and nanofibrous membranes. Consequently, the electrospinning method as well as the formation and features of the electrospun nanofiber/membrane nanomaterials have been described. Properties of the electrospun nanofibers have found to be enhanced several folds through the incorporation of carbon nanoparticles in the nanofibers. Important properties and utilizations of carbon nanocomposite electrospun nanofibers were seemed to be affected by nanoparticle amount and dispersal. Importantly, diameter, microstructure, and physical features (thermal, mechanical, conductive, etc.) of the nanofibers and resulting membranes can be affected by the nanofiller behavior. The high performance electrospun nanofibers have been used to form efficient nanocomposite nanofibrous membranes. Sequentially, the electrospun nanocomposite nanofibrous membranes have been applied in technical membrane applications.
