Abstract

Anticorrosion coatings demonstrating the ability to recover their protective function after being damaged by different destructive factors represent one particular class of the new generation engineering materials—so-called self-materials, which are one of most rapidly growing fields in modern material science.

A well-established concept to impart the self-recovering or self-protecting features to an organic coating is nowadays the use of micro- or nanocontainer structure when protective agents (corrosion inhibitors) entrapped ...
