Abstract
There is a large variety of techniques available to protect metals from various types of corrosion. Till date chromate containing metal coatings is one of the most commonly used methods. Layered clays are basically of two types depending on the type of ion exchange capacity. In the recent years different researchers demonstrated the use of such cation/ anionic clays as potential nanocontainers for the inhibitors. These nanocontainers can be used in the coating to induce self-repairing capacity when the coating surface is damaged. Due to the disturbance in the pH and availability of chloride ions clay based nanocontainers can release the inhibitor to protect the surface. In the recent year use of anionic clay like hydrotalcites or layered double hydroxides are much studied in comparison to cationic clay like montmorillonite. This review critically analysed the potential of these clay in the future development of self-healing coating.
