Due to the high concentrations of ions such as Cl-, SO42-, and Mg2+ in seawater, as well as the influence of factors like sunlight, sea breeze, and marine organisms, the marine atmospheric environment is characterized by high humidity, high salinity, strong ultraviolet radiation, and strong winds, making it an extremely harsh corrosive environment. Although traditional organic coatings provide a certain level of protection, their protective lifespan is short, and they cannot meet the requirements for use in marine environments. Therefore, developing corrosion-resistant coatings suitable for marine environments is an urgent issue that needs to be addressed. As an anti-corrosion coating for marine use, it must possess the following characteristics: 1. It should have excellent corrosion resistance, enabling it to withstand corrosive agents such as acids, alkalis, salts, water, oils, various chemicals, waste liquids, wastewater, and exhaust gases. It should be able to resist dissolution by these corrosive agents, prevent structural damage, and stop harmful chemical reactions from causing erosion. 2. It should have good resistance to the penetration of corrosive agents; when in contact with such agents, it should be able to prevent their intrusion and inhibit any reactions that may occur. At the same time, it should have good adhesion to the substrate and mechanical strength. The level of adhesion is a key factor determining its ability to provide corrosion protection, as greater adhesion helps enhance its anti-corrosive capabilities. 3. In practical applications, the coating is inevitably subjected to dynamic and static loads in contact with mechanical equipment; therefore, it needs to possess certain mechanical strength and physical properties.
