Mechanically robust hydrophobic bio-based epoxy coatings for anti-corrosion application by Zheng, Shunli, Bellido-Aguilar, Daniel Angel, Huang, Yinjuan, Zeng, Xianting, Zhang, Qichun, Chen, Zhong

“…The coating was fabricated by introducing superhydrophobic SiO 2 nanoparticles, a hydrophobic curing agent, and hexadecyltrimethoxysilane into an isosorbide-based epoxy resin via a one-step spin coating process. The coating exhibits high hydrophobicity with a water contact angle (CA) of 134 ± 3°. …”

Design and Development of an Accelerated Material Synthesis Platform for Automated Materials Research by Aissi, Eunice I.

“…X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and hyperspectral imaging measurements show equivalence between high-throughput synthesis and more traditional spin-coating methods. Results obtained through the high-throughput stability characterization method are aligned with stability trends reported in the literature and have an accuracy of 96.9% when compared to ground-truth degradation as measured by a domain expert.…”
