Abstract

Self-healing coatings that autonomically repair and prevent corrosion of the underlying substrate are created through dispersion of microencapsulated healing agents in a polymer film. Following a damage event, these healing agents are released into the damaged region, passivating the substrate. This approach to self-healing coatings is quite general, and is effective for both model and industrially important coating systems.
