Polymer Based Nanoscale Materials for Surface Coatings by Sabu Thomas Book PDF Summary
Polymer-Based Nanoscale Materials for Surface Coatings presents the latest advances and emerging technologies in polymer-based nanomaterials for coatings, focusing on novel materials, characterization techniques, and cutting-edge applications. The first part of the book presents the fundamentals of surface preparation and nanocoatings, linking materials and properties, explaining the correlation between morphology, surface phenomena, and surface protection mechanism, and covering theory, modelling, and simulation. The second section of the book guides the reader through characterization methods, with an emphasis on the latest developments in techniques and approaches. Ageing and life cycle assessment of coated surfaces and coatings are also discussed. The third section explores advanced applications across a range of fields, including intelligent coatings for biomedical implants, self-healing coatings, syper-hydrophobicity, electroluminescence, sustainable edible coatings, marine antifouling, corrosion resistance, and photocatalytic coatings. This is a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, and advanced students with an interest in coatings, surface preparation, nanomaterials, polymer science, and across materials science and engineering, as well as engineers and R&D professionals working with novel polymeric coatings in an industrial application setting. Explains the fundamentals of coatings and surface protection, mechanism, materials and properties, and modelling and simulation Presents detailed information on the latest characterization techniques to prepare nanoscale polymer coatings with enhanced properties Explores a broad range of state-of-the-art applications, and considers ageing and life cycle assessment of coatings
