Advanced Functional Nanomaterials and Self-Healing Coating Systems

Research Focus:
Focusing on molecular design and nanostructure engineering of functional polymer coatings, systematically investigating the preparation processes and performance optimization of functional materials including self-healing polyurea coatings, antimicrobial photocatalytic materials, and anti-biofouling coatings. Through strategies such as molecular chain segment design, nanocomposite filler incorporation, and crosslinking density modulation, achieving synergistic enhancement of mechanical properties, durability, and functionality.

Key Technologies:

  • Self-Healing Mechanisms: Utilizing reversible chemical bonds (hydrogen bonds, metal coordination bonds, Diels-Alder reactions) to achieve autonomous repair of coating damage.

  • Antimicrobial Functionality: Incorporating photocatalytic nanomaterials (e.g., TiO₂, AgNPs) to impart highly efficient antimicrobial and anti-biofouling properties to coatings.

  • Flame-Retardant Modification: Enhancing thermal stability and flame-retardant performance of coatings through the incorporation of inorganic nanofillers such as titanates.

Representative Achievements:

  • Developed self-healing polyurea coatings demonstrating significant improvements in flame-retardant performance, antimicrobial properties, and self-healing efficiency, with relevant performance indicators validated through standardized testing.

  • Technology applied in high-end medical devices, marine engineering equipment, and industrial protective applications, demonstrating outstanding results in extending equipment service life and improving biocompatibility.

  • Research outcomes published in journals including NPJ Materials Degradation, Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, Journal of Molecular Structure, and Journal of Polymer Science, with multiple invention patents filed.
