A homogeneous mixture of two immiscible polymeric binders were dissolved in a common solvent or a mixture of solvents was applied as a thin film. The first polymeric binder was a bisphenol-A (BPA) based epoxide, epoxide modified with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) oligomer, or phosphated epoxide. The second polymeric binder was a fluorinated acrylic copolymer.
A homogeneous mixture of two immiscible polymeric binders were dissolved in a common solvent or a mixture of solvents was applied as a thin film. The first polymeric binder was a bisphenol-A (BPA) based epoxide, epoxide modified with tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) oligomer, or phosphated epoxide. The second polymeric binder was a fluorinated acrylic copolymer. The mixture was coated on steel substrates via spray and slow casting techniques and then was thermally crosslinked using a methylated melamine formaldehyde and a polyamide curing agents. During the film formation process, a self-stratified three phase coatings was observed. The films were evaluated via X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with integrated Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). It was found that the molecular weight of the resins, fluorine content, epoxide inorganic modification, curing agents, and processing parameters are all the factors that affected the degree of stratification.
Truly self-healing materials have the capability to repair themselves when they are damaged without the need for any external intervention. Self-healing systems based on microencapsulated healing agents developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign were initially developed with polymerized resins and reinforced polymer composites as the intended applications. In this paper, we discuss the principles that emerged in the design of these self-healing systems and how they are presently used in design and optimization of self-healing systems for industrial and marine protective coatings.

Thermal Insulating Coatings are a relatively young technology but are gaining worldwide acceptance quickly due to their energy retention capabilities, easy application, ability to protect substrates, reducing maintenance and personnel protection costs. Not to be confused with reflective roof coatings, TICs use all 5 thermal dynamic blocking agents (or principles) to reduce thermal transfer between environments.
Shot blasting as a mechanical surface preparation process is widely used in finishing metallic parts. Sophistication in the use of this technique could range from simple manual systems to computer-controlled equipment for preparing aerospace and automotive components.
