Researchers from the Institute of Chemistry and the Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology have developed an innovative coating that protects iron from rust with an exceptional efficiency of 99.6%. The method, developed by Prof. Elad Gross, Dr. Daniel Sharon, and Linoy Amar, combines a thin molecular layer of the NHC type with a particularly durable polymer. Together, they create a barrier that is especially flexible and strong, and prevents corrosion even in harsh conditions. The findings were published in Angewandte Chemie.
