The review compares nanofillers, POSS molecular hybrids, antimicrobial materials, and structural color as ways to improve wear resistance, limit biofouling, and produce pigment-free color. It distinguishes diamond-wear coatings already in commercial service from self-polishing antifouling paints and structural-color finishes that require independent validation, while identifying production consistency, durability, safety, and cost as barriers to wider adoption. 09/24/2026
