UV-curable resins usually consist of a mixture of a photoinitiator, a functionalized oligomer and a low vapour pressure monomer serving as a reactive diluent. Three different case studies of UV-cured coatings for corrosion protection on mild steel are reported (UV-curable waterborne urethane acrylic coatings, modified montmorillonite nanoparticles in UV-cured epoxy coatings, and a combination of the sol-gel route with UV curable moieties in urethane acrylic coatings). Through the analysis of the case studies it is possible to appreciate that the presence of nanoparticles has a dramatic effect on the corrosion protection properties of the UV-cured coatings.
