pH-Responsive nanovalves based on encapsulated halloysite for the controlled release of a corrosion inhibitor in epoxy coating
Keyword(s):
Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were applied as corrosion inhibitor (benzotriazole, BTA) hosts, which were encapsulated by using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and modified by (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES).
