An epoxy-modified polyurethane composite coating with repetitive self-healing function for anti-cavitation, anticorrosion, and antifouling applications
Erosion and fouling are important factors that affect the performance of power components of large cargo ships. Inspired by animal cartilage tissue, an epoxy modified polyurethane composite coating (FD-EPU) with reproducible self-healing properties was successfully prepared. FD-EPU was endowed with excellent resistance to cavitation, corrosion, and fouling due to the presence of functional reduced graphene oxide (FrGO) and 2-octyl-4,5-dichloroisothiazolinone (DCOIT). The introduction of FrGO with multiple hydrogen bonds into coatings increased the tensile strength of FD-EPU by 3.56 MPa and exhibited excellent cavitation resistance (with a mass loss of 4.7 mg under continuous cavitation for 60 h). In addition, the barrier effect of FrGO enabled FD-EPU to possess outstanding anticorrosion ability. After being immersed in 3.5 wt% NaCl for a duration of 15 days, the |Z |0.01Hz value of FD-EPU was found to remain at 9.18 × 10 9 Ω·cm 2 . The modification of epoxy resulted in FD-EPU coatings with improved adhesion by 53.5 % compared to non-modified coatings, with a bond strength of 23.8 MPa on stainless steel. The incorporation of DCOIT and FrGO endowed FD-EPU with good antifouling properties (removal of more than 97.5 % of bacteria and removal rate of microalgae up to 96.2 %). Furthermore, FD-EPU exhibited outstanding opto-thermal self-healing capability, with a self-healing efficiency of 61 % after 30 s of near-infrared light irradiation. This work provides a new inspiration for the protection of large cargo ship power components.
