Formation and appearance of CLP networks cross-linked by GDE. (a) AFM images of a layer of only CLPs and coatings with increasing GDE/CLP ratios from 0.39 to 0.78 g/g on metal substrates. (b) Proposed coating formation mechanism. The formation of CLP networks begins when GDE is adsorbed onto the CLPs, which enable them to attach to each other and create networks of linked particles as more particles are attached. (c) SEM image of a coating with a GDE/CLP ratio of 0.65 g/g. All samples were cured before the measurements.
