Abstract: Abstract Layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition technique has been employed to design mussel-inspired UV protective organic coating using polyethylenimine-polydopamine (PEI-PDA) and poly (acrylic acid) (PAA) pairs. The photocatalytic decomposition of RhB (Rhodamine B) is studied inside the… read more here.
