Technological and scientific developments pave the way for new developments in the field of coating as it affects many areas of life. While coatings are mostly used for physical protection and decorative purposes, a variety of functional smart coatings have emerged with these technological and scientific developments. Smart coatings can be defined as coatings that respond automatically to external mechanical, chemical, or physical stimuli. The variety and usage areas of smart coatings, which provide benefits such as energy saving, longer lifespan, and safer structures, are increasing over time. In this study, smart and functional coatings are defined, the research for the smart coatings market is summarized and the functions and working principles of various smart coatings are examined.
