Abstract: A tire has a coating with a quadlayer or multiple quadlayers, and a method produces the same. In an embodiment, the method for coating a rubber substrate includes exposing the rubber substrate to a first cationic solution to produce a first cationic layer on the rubber substrate. The method also includes exposing the first cationic layer to a first anionic solution to produce a first anionic layer on the first cationic layer. In addition, the method includes exposing the first anionic layer to a second cationic solution to produce a second cationic layer on the first anionic layer. The method further includes exposing the second cationic layer to a second anionic solution to produce a second anionic layer on the second cationic layer. A quadlayer includes the first cationic layer, the first anionic layer, the second cationic layer, and the second anionic layer. The coating includes the quadlayer.

Abstract: A coated substrate and method for producing the coated substrate provide a material diffusion barrier. In an embodiment, a method for producing a material diffusion barrier comprising a coating on an elastomeric substrate includes exposing the elastomeric substrate to a cationic solution to produce a cationic layer on the elastomeric substrate. The cationic solution comprises a polymer, a colloidal particle, a nanoparticle, a salt, or any combinations thereof. The method further includes exposing the cationic layer to an anionic solution to produce an anionic layer on the cationic layer. The anionic solution comprises an anionic polymer, a second colloidal particle, a second salt, or any combinations thereof. The coating comprises a bilayer comprising the cationic layer and the anionic layer.
