The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in various places throughout this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it refer to a separate or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments.

[0034] Polyvinylpyrrolidone in the examples of the present invention was purchased from Shanghai MacLean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., batch number C15207561;

[0035] Polyethyleneimine was purchased from Shanghai MacLean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., batch number C14839026;

[0036] Pyrogallol was purchased from Shanghai MacLean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., batch number C14194392;

[0038] Vanadium pentoxide was purchased from Shanghai MacLean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., batch number C14726416.

[0039] The spray-on double cross-linked hydrogel coating of the present invention is prepared by Figure 1 The process shown in the figure is to use 304 stainless steel as the research substrate. The surface of the stainless steel substrate is cleaned, and then the prepolymer is evenly sprayed on the substrate surface. Finally, the pyrogallol solution is sprayed to obtain the coating.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present invention, the size of the stainless steel substrate is 10×10×1 mm, and the particle size of vanadium pentoxide is 1-5 μm. Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio natrix, Chlorella vulgaris, and Phaeodactylum tricornutum are selected as common Gram-positive / negative bacteria in the ocean, coccal algae, and diatoms, respectively, to evaluate the antifouling performance of the hydrogel coating.

[0041] (1) Antifouling performance test of the present invention:

[0042] Staphylococcus aureus and Vibrio natriureticus were selected as representative of common Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in the ocean, respectively, as target bacteria for antibacterial testing. Samples were immersed in culture medium containing the above bacteria and removed after 24 hours. The samples were fixed with glutaraldehyde and the surface bacteria were stained with propidium iodide. Bacterial adhesion was observed using a laser confocal microscope (Leica TCS SP8 STED).

[0043] Chlorella vulgaris and Phaeochromis tricornutum were selected as representatives of common green algae and diatoms in the ocean, respectively, as target algae for testing their anti-algae adhesion properties. The samples were immersed in a culture medium containing the above algae and cultured with a 12:12h day and night alternation for 7 days. After the algae adsorbed on the surface were fixed with glutaraldehyde, the above-mentioned laser confocal microscope was used to observe the algae adhesion on the sample surface.

[0044] (2) Swelling rate test:

[0045] The prepared hydrogel was freeze-dried for 24 h and then placed in a vacuum drying oven for further drying until the weight was constant. The weight was recorded as M o ;

[0046] Place the completely dried hydrogel in artificial seawater, take it out every 2 hours, wipe the surface moisture with filter paper, and weigh it until the weight does not change. Record the weight at this time as M t , using the formula SR%=(M t -M o ) / M o ×100% to calculate the swelling ratio of the hydrogel.

[0047] (3) Mechanical properties test:

[0048] The coating's hydrogel material was subjected to tensile testing using an INSTRON 68TM-30 universal testing machine equipped with a high-precision transducer. After absorbing water to swelling equilibrium, the hydrogel was cut into dumbbell-shaped tensile specimens with a thickness of 1 mm and a cross-section of 4 mm. Protective paper was wrapped around each end of the specimen during clamping to prevent damage to the hydrogel. During the experiment, the loading accuracy was set to 0.5%, and the tensile speed was 30 mm / min.

[0049] (4) Adhesion test:

[0050] The adhesion of the hydrogel coatings was tested by a microscratch test using an Anton Paar scratch tester (CSM RST) equipped with a spherical indenter (ROCKWELL AT-271).

[0051] (5) Lubrication performance test:

[0052] The lubrication performance of the coating was tested using a friction and wear tester (Tribostudio, Yangzhou University). The average friction coefficient of the original sample and each hydrogel coating was recorded at a friction frequency of 2 Hz using a constant positive pressure of 2 N.

[0053] (6) Corrosion protection performance test:

[0054] An electrochemical workstation (Gamry Interface 1010E) was used to measure the polarization curve of the hydrogel-modified stainless steel electrode in artificial seawater at 25°C using a three-electrode system constructed with a saturated calomel electrode, a platinum electrode, and a hydrogel electrode. The corrosion current density obtained was used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of the coating. The evaluation criterion was the degree of reduction in the corrosion current density after coating compared to before coating.
