Abstract

The emerging use of nanoparticles in the engineering, science, and technology has been now extended to the coating applications. It is well known that the polymer nanocoatings are more efficient with enhanced physical and chemical properties compared to the conventional coatings to prevent the substrates from corrosion. However, nanocoating materials could be exposed to different environmental conditions such as water, acid, moisture, oxygen, temperature, etc. Hence, the durability study of polymer-based nanocoatings under various aggressive conditions is vital. In this chapter, we mainly emphasized the different polymers used for nanocoatings, aging studies of nanocoatings in various conditions, and several characterization techniques to analyze the aged nanocoatings are also highlighted.
