New valve-free organosilica nanocontainer for active anticorrosion of polymer coatings

Smart coatings with inhibitor loaded nanocontainers exhibit significant efficiency and durability in prolonging metal life-time and reducing catastrophic failure. However, scaling and further practical intelligent anticorrosion applications of such coatings are still greatly limited by time-consuming installation of various nanovalves. Herein, hybrid hollow mesoporous organosilica was obtained by facile selective etching and served as valve-free...
