Advancing Applications of Polymer Coating Technology

Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2024 in the subject Engineering - Mechanical Engineering, , course: B.Tech Mechanical, language: English, abstract: Research conducted over the past few decades has brought us closer to the development of functional polymer coatings that are easy to use, self-cleaning, antibacterial, and antifouling. The use of polymer coatings has little or no impact on other properties, and they do not compromise the safety or mechanical strength of the materials being coated. Coatings are highly durable, resistant, and are primarily used for protection against environmental factors such as water, corrosion, and other elements. These coatings must meet stringent performance requirements to ensure maximum effectiveness. In this work, we try to bring forward the recent research and advancements that are taking place in the field of Polymer Coating Technology, and have a better understanding of this technology getting implemented in our day-to-day life.
