Steel plates coated by self-healable polymer still can be rusted since it takes time to be healed. In this study, dual self-healing coating material is developed using corrosion inhibitor (DTBEDA) which can form hindered urea (HUB) as reversible cross-linking bond at the same time. Developed dual self-healing polymer is coated on steel plate, and scratch healing property was investigated by surgical blades and nano/micro indentation tester. The anticorrosion effect of DTBEDA was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).

Polycarbonate diol-based waterborne polyurethane (WPU) was prepared by prepolymer mixing process. The prepolymer mixture contained the polycarbonate diol, isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), dimethylol propionic acid, triethylamine, and ethylenediamine (EDA). The NCO/OH ratio in the prepolymer was adjusted by controlling the molar ratio of IPDI, and its effects on the properties of WPU were studied. The structure of WPU was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The average particle size increased and viscosity decreased with increasing NCO/OH ratio and EDA content in WPU. The reduced phase separation between soft and hard segments increased glass transition temperature. The reduction in the thermal decomposition temperature could be attributed to the low bond energy of urethane and urea groups, which constituted the hard segment. Additionally, the polyurethane chain mobility was restricted, elongation decreased, and tensile strength increased. The hydrogen bond between the hard segments formed a dense structure that hindered water absorption.
