Anti-corrosive Researchers have presented a graphene oxide modified vinyl ester (VER) coating based on tung oil-with an improved anti-corrosion performance. Usually, the barrier effect of VER-based films against the corrosion medium is seriously reduced due to the inevitable generation of pores and cracks during formation process. In a new work, modified lamellar graphene oxide (GO560) nanoparticles used as functional fillers are introduced into the VER-based film matrix to address the above issue.
