The use of self-healing coatings to protect metal substrates, such as aluminum alloys, stainless steel, carbon steel, and Mg alloys from corrosion is an important aspect for protecting metals and for the economy. During the past decade, extensive transformations on self-healing strategies were introduced in protective coatings, including the use of green components. Scientists used extracts of henna leaves, aloe vera, tobacco, etc. as corrosion inhibitors, and cellulose nanofibers, hallyosite nanotubes, etc. as healing agent containers. This review gives a concise description on the need for self-healing protective coatings for metal parts, the latest extrinsic self-healing strategies, and the techniques used to follow-up the self-healing process to control the corrosion of metal substrates. Common techniques, such as accelerated salt immersion test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), for evaluating the self-healing process in protective coatings are explained. We also show recent advancements procedures, such as scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET) and scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM), as successful techniques in evaluating the self-healing process in protective coatings.

Crack formation in concrete is one of the main reasons for concrete degradation. Calcium alginate capsules containing biological self-healing agents for cementitious materials were studied for the self-healing of cement paste and mortars through in vitro characterizations such as healing agent survivability and retention, material stability, and biomineralization, followed by in situ self-healing observation in pre-cracked cement paste and mortar specimens. Our results showed that bacterial spores fully survived the encapsulation process and would not leach out during cement mixing. Encapsulated bacteria precipitated CaCO3 when exposed to water, oxygen, and calcium under alkaline conditions by releasing CO32− ions into the cement environment. Capsule rupture is not required for the initiation of the healing process, but exposure to the right conditions are. After 56 days of wet–dry cycles, the capsules resulted in flexural strength regain as high as 39.6% for the cement mortar and 32.5% for the cement paste specimens. Full crack closure was observed at 28 days for cement mortars with the healing agents. The self-healing system acted as a biological CO32− pump that can keep the bio-agents retained, protected, and active for up to 56 days of wet-dry incubation. This promising self-healing strategy requires further research and optimization.

Crack deformation in concrete start with hairline crack or micro-crack which can lead to major crack if not prevented. Crack can cause a major deterioration to the structure as liquid can penetrate inside and cause damage as a result; the durability of concrete will decrease. Self-healing concrete was introduced to automatically repair hairline crack or micro-crack without external intervention. Previous study had shown that by introducing bacteria into the concrete, the crack will heal itself. This paper presents the study on self-healing mortar by using epoxy resin without hardener as a self-healing agent. The self-healing process was evaluated using Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity measurements up to 180 days. Mortar specimens were prepared with mass ratio of 1:3 (cement: fine aggregate), water-cement ratio of 0.48 and 10% epoxy resin of cement content. All tested specimens were subjected to wet-dry curing; where compressive strength, flexural strength, and tensile splitting strength and self-healing mechanism were measured. The results obtained shows that, all strength properties of the self-healing epoxy mortar were significantly higher than the control sample and became constant at 10 % of epoxy resin content. Based on the pulse velocity measurements, after 60 days the cracks of the mortar healed automatically as a result of the reaction between the unhardened epoxy resin and hydroxyl ion from cement hydrate. This shows the ability of the epoxy to be used as self-healing agent.

Abstract A methodology to enrich epoxy coatings of an effective self-healing feature on wet surfaces was developed as a further step on for practical corrosion protection issues. To this aim, a polyetheramine was chemically engineered by grafting catechol units and then successfully encapsulated in microcapsules (MCs) to be finally embedded into an epoxy resin deposited on steel panels. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thin-layer chromatography, and 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy confirmed the successful polyetheramine modification by dopamine units. Different dosages of catechol-modified polyetheramine were encapsulated within poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) shell via electrospray method to study the influence of dopamine grafting on the healing performance. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed the formation of the spherical MCs, while FTIR and TGA analyses confirmed the successful encapsulation. The highly responsive self-healing coatings were then prepared by embedding amine- and isocyanate-containing MCs (1:1 weight ratio; 3 wt% overall) as a dual-capsule system exploiting the polyurea formation as a fast healing reaction. In operando electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests were employed to study the underwater self-healing performance. According to the EIS results, monotonically increasing variation with time of the charge transfer resistance was correlated with a fast and effective underwater self-healing performance for the sample using 40 wt% of a catechol-modified healing agent. Such results, combined with others including SEM investigation on the underwater healed samples, point to an improved adhesion of the growing dopamine-bearing polymer to both underlying metal and epoxy edges of the scratch.

Recently, self-healing coating is classified as one of the smart coatings which has the ability to heal or repair damage of the coating to prevent further corrosion. The aim of this study is to synthesize the self-healing coatings from polymeric material and evaluate the performance and their corrosion behavior when coated on steel substrates. The corrosion tests were performed using immersion test and salt spray test method at room temperature. The immersion test shows that self-healing coating gives lower corrosion rate compared to pure epoxy paint, with a value of 0.02 and 0.05 mm/year respectively. Also, salt spray test shows similar trend as the immersion test, which is 0.11 and 0.19 mm/year for self-healing coating and pure epoxy paint respectively. While uncoated samples without any protection corroded at 0.89 mm/year. It was also found that the damage on self-healing coating was covered with zeolite from the microcapsules indicating that the self-healing agent was successfully synthesized and could function well. In other words, self-healing coating shows better corrosion resistance compared to the pure epoxy coating on steel substrate.

An organic coating is commonly used to protect metal from corrosion, but it is prone to failure due to microcracks generated by internal stress and external mechanical action. The self-healing and self-lubricating achieved in the coating is novel, which allows an extension of life by providing resistance to damage and repair after damage. In this study, a new approach to microencapsulating bifunctional linseed oil with polyurethane shell by interfacial polymerization. Moreover, the self-healing and self-lubricating coatings with different concentrations of microcapsules were developed. The well-dispersed microcapsules showed a regular spherical morphology with an average diameter of ~64.9 μm and a core content of 74.0 wt.%. The results of the salt spray test demonstrated that coatings containing microcapsules still possess anticorrosion, which is improved with the increase of microcapsules content, after being scratched. The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed a |Z|f=0.01Hz value of 104 Ω·cm2 for pure epoxy coating after being immersed for 3 days, whereas the coating with 20 wt.% microcapsules was the highest, 1010 Ω·cm2. The results of friction wear showed that the tribological performance of the coating was enhanced greatly as microcapsule concentration reached 10 wt.% or more, which showed a 86.8% or more reduction in the friction coefficient compared to the pure epoxy coating. These results indicated that the coatings containing microcapsules exhibited excellent self-healing and self-lubricating properties, which are positively correlated with microcapsules content.

Cracks are caused by many factors. Shrinkage and external loading are the most common reason. It becomes a problem when the ingression of aggressive and harmful substance penetrates to the concrete gap. This problem reduces the durability of the structures. It is well known that self – healing of cracks significantly improves the durability of the concrete structure. This paper presents self-healing cracks of cement paste containing bentonite associated with ground granulated blast furnace slag. The self-healing properties were evaluated with four parameters: crack width on the surface, crack depth, tensile strength recovery, and flexural recovery. In combination with microscopic observation, a healing process over time is also performed. The results show that bentonite improves the healing properties, in terms of surface crack width and crack depth. On the other hand, GGBFS could also improve the healing process, in terms of crack depth, direst tensile recovery, and flexural stiffness recovery. Carbonation reaction is believed as the main mechanism, which contributes the self-healing process as well as the continuous hydration progress.

The availability of TiC healing agent has been evaluated in low temperature self-healing behavior of Al2O3 based self-healing ceramics. For this purpose, some technical issues to actualize the advanced fiber-reinforced self-healing ceramics containing TiC based interlayer as healing agent were discussed. Especially, the mechanical matching between the matrix and the interlayer was focused. Moreover, the self-healing behavior of the advanced shFRC containing the optimized TiC based healing agent was investigated. As a result, 30 vol% TiC-70 vol% Al2O3 interlayer was confirmed to be the optimized healing agent in the self-healing ceramics, and the self-healing ceramics was found to enable to attain the perfect healing at 600°C within 10 min. And we succeeded in prototype production of fiber-reinforced self-healing ceramics for low pressure turbine blade.
