Corrosion never sleeps, therefore, industries rather than governments do their best to resist the different types of corrosion by all possible methods and techniques particularly in high-risk areas. Nevertheless, organic coatings are considered the most widely applied route for protection of metallic surfaces from corrosion and they are of a special importance in transportation and infrastructure. Consequently, the main goal of this study is focused on providing a detailed overview of protective ecofriendly systems (binder/pigment/inhibitor) based on epoxy resin with zinc titanate/polyaniline (PAN) and other type based on epoxy resin with boron phosphate/poly(p.phenylenediamine (PpPDA) as new types of corrosion inhibitive coatings that works holistically to obtain long-term performance for steel protection. However, characterization and investigation of zinc titanate/in-situ polymerized polyaniline and boron phosphate/in-situ polymerized poly(p.phenylenediamine) were achieved via XRD, XRF, FT-IR, SEM and thermal analysis. Besides, different concentrations of the studied systems of zinc titanate/polyaniline and boron phosphate/ poly(p.phenylenediamine) were applied within controlled paint formulations based on epoxy resin, subsequently, the physical and electrochemical measurements showed good physico-mechanical properties and high protection level against corrosion. Moreover, the self-healing influence of the selected coated films was examined and detected by simplified and effective considered methods giving good degree of self-healing response
