Corrosion and tribology are surface phenomena. Modifying surfaces of materials without resorting to altering their bulk properties is an effective route to alleviate corrosion, friction and wear, encountered in engineering applications. With the advancements in the field of nanotechnology, surface protective coatings with nanomaterials can be readily developed to explore their functionality in mitigating chemical/physical damage of surfaces. Surface protection enhances performance and operating lifetimes of industrial machinery components. This review presents insights on various types of recently developed nanostructured coatings, their synthesis routes, corrosion behaviour and tribological performance. It provides the state-of-the-art information on the development of nanostructured coatings, namely, ceramic coatings, metallic coatings and nanocomposite coatings with metal and polymer matrices. Biomimetic approaches in making nanostructured coatings and challenges encountered in the development of nanostructured coatings are highlighted.

Purpose: Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were used as carriers for silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). In this process, MWCNTs were coated with mesoporous silica (MWCNT-Silica) for uniform and regular loading of AgNPs on the MWCNTs. In addition, astaxanthin (AST) extract was used as a reducing agent for silver ions to enhance the antioxidant, antibiofilm, and anticancer activities of AgNPs.

With polymer nanoparticles now playing an influential role in biological applications, the synthesis of nanoparticles with precise control over size, shape, and chemical functionality, along with a responsive ability to environmental changes, remains a significant challenge. To address this challenge, innovative polymerization methods must be developed that can incorporate diverse functional groups and stimuli-responsive moieties into polymer nanostructures, which can then be tailored for specific biological applications. By combining the advantages of emulsion polymerization in an environmentally friendly reaction medium, high polymerization rates due to the compartmentalization effect, chemical functionality, and scalability, with the precise control over polymer chain growth achieved through reversible-deactivation radical polymerization, our group developed the temperature-directed morphology transformation (TDMT) method to produce polymer nanoparticles.
