Green Corrosion Chemistry and Engineering: Opportunities and Challenges

Description

Wiley, 2012. — 420 p.With its unique focus on specifically addressing the problems for societies and economies associated with corrosion and their solution, this book provides an up-to-date overview of the progress in corrosion chemistry and engineering. International experts actively involved in research and development place particular emphasis on how to counter the economic and environmental consequences of corrosion with the help of science and technology, making this a valuable resource for researchers as well as decision makers in industry and politics. Further major parts of the book are devoted to corrosion prevention in the naval and energy sector as well as to corrosion monitoring and waste management.Contents Basics of Corrosion Chemistry Corrosion and Electrochemistry Application of Microelectrochemical Techniques in Corrosion Research Protective Coatings: An Overview New Era of Eco-Friendly Corrosion Inhibitors Green Corrosion Inhibitors: Status in Developing Countries Innovative Silanes-Based Pretreatment to Improve the Adhesion of Organic Coatings Corrosion of Austenitic Stainless Steels and Nickel-Base Alloys in Supercritical Water and Novel Control Methods Etal-Phosphonate Anticorrosion Coatings Metal-Matrix Nanocomposite Coatings Produced by Electrodeposition Adsorption Studies, Modeling, and Use of Green Inhibitors in Corrosion Inhibition: An Overview of Recent Research Indian Initiatives for Corrosion Protection Protective Coatings: Novel Nanohybrid Coatings for Corrosion and Fouling Prevention
