Article Synopsis
- Developing efficient fluorescent sensors for metal corrosion is important, but sensitive sensors can lose effectiveness when exposed to different coatings.
- Silica nanocontainers are used to encapsulate rhodamine B acylhydrazone, which acts as a pH sensor, and these nanomaterials are applied in low concentrations in water-based epoxy and acrylic coatings to detect early corrosion in steel.
- The encapsulated dye shows 4 times greater fluorescence response to corrosion compared to non-encapsulated, while also enhancing dye dispersion and coating barrier properties without needing solvents.
