- The protective coatings in metals enhances its physical properties against harm. In aeronautical industries, the structure is typically coated with paint at 100 μm, which provides corrosion resistance. However, phenomenon such as lightning does not help the coating or paint against damage. In this work, a polymer i.e., P-pPDA is synthesized by introducing gold dusts in the final stages of preparation. The goal is to replace the use of paint with polymer coating to be more eco-friendly to the environment and also to form the coating in a way that the gold dusts helps dissipate the discharge from the lightning upon contact. Hence, materials characterization of the newly developed metal-matrix composite were performed to understand the interactions of the multilayers within the system.
