Key Points

The aim is to evaluate the synergistic effect of WO3 on the properties of nanocomposite coatings for environmental sustainability.
Development of WO3-enhanced poly-(melamine-co-formaldehyde)-cured coatings.
Characterization of physico-chemical and physico-mechanical properties.
Assessment of hydrophobic and anticorrosive performance.
The incorporation of WO3 significantly improved the hydrophobicity of the coatings as observed with a contact angle increase of 30 degrees.
Physico-mechanical tests showed a 25% increase in tensile strength compared to control samples, p<0.05.
Anticorrosive performance revealed a 40% reduction in corrosion rates over a 6-month exposure period.
