the idea of smart corrosion inhibition is basis on either inhibitor consumption where it is needed or reducing harmful matrix interaction with it. in addition, applying corrosion inhibitor in a coating causes many problems such as loss of inhibition capability, coating degradation, or both. a useful technique to overcome this problem is applying of inert host systems of nanometer dimensions as ...

The corrosion protection factor (c.p.f.) and the corrosion condition (cc.) are simple instruments for the study and evaluation of the contribution and efficiency of several methods of corrosion prevention and control. The application of c.p.f. and cc. to corrosion and prevention in agriculture in The Netherlands is considered in detail. Attention is paid to relations between c.p.f. and c.c., th...

to improve the corrosion protection of copper metal, 0.01m concentration of 1h-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (tat) was incorporated into the hybrid sol-gel monolayers containing 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (gptms) and tetraethoxysilane (teos). it was further subjected to hydrolysis and condensation reaction to form a sol-gel matrix. the tat-doped hybrid sol-gel coating was applied over the coppe...

   In this research, mesoporous silica was served as the host of molybdate (corrosion inhibitor). The loaded mesoporous silica was dispersed in a paint matrix. The composite was then coated on the carbon steel surface. Polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests showed that the corrosion resistance of the scratched paint containing molybdate loaded mesoporous silica ...

Currently, the most promising approach in the corrosion protection of smart coatings is the use of nanoreservoirs loaded with corrosion inhibitors. Nanocontainers are filled with anti-corrosive agents and are embedded into a primer coating. Future prospective containers are halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) due to their low price, availability, durability, with high mechanical strength and biocompati...

Smart materials cover a wide and developing range in engineering & medical application. This paper presents the “Stimuli-sensitive/smart” polymeric systems which can overcome dramatic property changes responding to small changes in its surrounding environment. Here there is a corrosion resistant or protective smart polymeric coating and paints have been described. Additional smart-coating princ...

For existing infrastructures, corrosion and stresscorrosion are detrimental for reinforcing steels. The challenge of how efficiently we can protect steels against corrosion has been for a long time critical. However, knowing how advanced are corrosion protecting techniques used nowadays, is it still relevant to concentrate solely on protecting steel structures or should we focus mostly on struc...

subsea structures such as manifolds, line pipes and flow lines are important investments. also because of the sensitivity of environmental issues, corrosion of these structures is of vital importance. subsea corrosion management is different from on-shore and shallow water off-shore corrosion management in mainly three factors: materials, corrosion management practice and cathodic protection. t...

Corrosion of metallic materials is a natural process, and our study shows that even in an alkaline environment severe corrosion may occur on a carbon steel surface. While corrosion cannot be stopped it can be retarded. Many of the traditional anti-corrosion approaches such as the chromate process are effective but hazardous to the environment and human health. Mefp-1, a protein derived from blu...
