| Abstract Scope |
Climate change has been reshaping the global landscape in the field of research on the development of new materials. Researchers are increasingly seeking environmentally friendly alternatives, such as high-performance polymeric coatings and composites with anti-fouling and anti-corrosive properties for metallic structures, particularly in aggressive environments. Agro-industrial residues have emerged as a valuable resource for this vital industrial sector, providing raw materials for the development of these innovative coatings. These residues take advantage of the free hydroxyl groups present in lignocellulosic fiber components and active principles with anti-fouling effects, thereby enabling the creation of multifunctional coatings. Particular emphasis is given to lignin, tannins, and cellulose, due to their inherent chemical characteristics that contribute to the desired functional properties. The results demonstrate that it is possible to develop high-performance coatings at a lower cost compared to those currently available on the market. |
