This study investigates the electrochemical characterization of carbon nanotube and zincrich epoxy primers (CNT-ZRPs) on carbon steel in simulated concrete pore (SCP) solutions in the presence of chloride ions. The mechanistic performance of CNT-ZRPs was characterized by adding different zinc content. The electrochemical results indicated a dominant barrier protection effect for the coating with 60 wt% Zn while there was a mixed corrosion protection mechanism for the coating with 70 wt% Zn and a dominant cathodic protection mechanism for coatings with
An integrated zwitterionic conjugated polymer-based biomaterial platform was designed and studied to address some of the key challenges of conjugated polymers in biomedical applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
