In order to overcome the problems of poor corrosion resistance and low hydrophobicity of water-based coatings. Two corrosion-inhibiting materials, graphene oxide (GO) and modified chitosan (MCS), were added to the coatings to obtain a new type of coating with comprehensive properties. The composite material formed by PVA cross-linked waterborne epoxy resin was named "substrate". The density functional theory (DFT) calculation was used to explore the binding ability of MCS and GO-grafted MCS to the substrate, respectively. The results showed that the complex cross-linked network structure formed by the grafting of GO and MCS not only improved the intermolecular interaction force but also improved the binding ability to the substrate, and the coating is denser, effectively delaying the erosion to the coating by the corrosive medium. The composite coating exhibited excellent dual functional properties of hydrophobicity and corrosion resistance at the coating-metal interface, and a stronger protective effect was formed upon the steel plate. Studies showed that this composite coating has good hydrophobic properties. (The contact angle of the composite waterborne coating reaches 87°.) It also has low self-corrosion current (0.28/cm) and high corrosion voltage (-0.45 V). The maximum inhibition efficiency of the coating is 99.97%.

Lead (Pb), a highly toxic heavy metal, poses a significant global health risk, particularly to children. Widely used in paint manufacturing for its remarkable corrosion-resistance properties Pb exposure has been linked to severe health issues, including reduced neurotransmitter levels, organ damage, potentially leading to death in extreme cases. Children Are particularly vulnerable, with Pb toxicity primarily affecting the brain, reproductive, kidneys, and cardiovascular systems.

The Ti6Al4V alloy is widely recognized for its extensive industrial applications, particularly in the aeronautics sector, due to its exceptional strength to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. In this context, many industrial processes depend critically on surface area, topology, and roughness. A promising approach involves combining Ti6Al4V alloy with polymer composites, which offers significant potential for engineers to design parts that are not only high-performing but also environmentally friendly.

With increasing awareness of environmental protection, additional attention has been given to environmentally friendly metal anticorrosion research. In this paper, the green organic corrosion inhibitor sodium lignosulfonate (SLS) was extracted from bagasse waste, and a Ce-MOF@SLS smart anticorrosive film containing the inhibitor was prepared on the surface of an aluminum alloy by in situ electrodeposition. The material was characterized by SEM, EDS, FT-IR, XRD and XPS, and its corrosion resistance was tested with EIS and neutral salt spray tests.

One of the most effective ways to solve the problems caused by the presence of steel implants in the body is to apply a coating to them. This study aims to develop and optimize composite coatings of magnesium oxide (MgO), 58S bioactive glass (BG), and N-carboxymethyl chitosan (N-CMC) on stainless steel (SS316L) substrates using the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method. The synthesized materials were characterized using FTIR, XRD, and SEM to confirm their structure and morphology prior to coating.
