Superior and durable graphene-based composite coatings by bioinspired interfaces and alignment

Graphene (G) has spectacular impermeability and chemical stability, holding promise as an excellent anticorrosion filler, and previous studies supports this hope. However, G only shows limited corrosion inhibition and even corrosion enhancement due to its inherent conductivity and uncontrolled distribution. Natural nacre provides an inspiration for constructing highly aligned structure coatings, in which G sheets are spatially isolated and keep...
