Superhydrophobic zinc oxide/epoxy coating prepared by a one-step approach for corrosion protection of carbon steel

Corrosion in carbon steel (CS) has been an existing issue and it calls attention to the need for improved corrosion protection. At present, superhydrophobic (SHB) coating technology has piqued the interest of researchers as alternative means of mitigating metal corrosion. Herein, a one-step solution...
