Abstract

Self-healing is a natural ability to spontaneously cure injury or illness, and this concept is now being applied in anticorrosion coatings. Recently, the design of a self-healing coating that could provide repetitive protection was proposed. In this chapter, the types, synthesis, properties, and characteristics of smart coatings in transportation industries are described and discussed. Corrosion and protection against it in various metallic materials are briefly explained. A specific discussion in self-healing coating consisting microand nanocapsules, fibers networks are presented. The future trend of self-healing coatings for corrosion protection will be described.
