This work introduces a new self-healing superhydrophobic coating based on dual actions by
the corrosion inhibitor benzotriazole (BTA) and an epoxy-based shape memory polymer …

This investigation parallels the others hoping to address the environmental predicaments.
Dealing with the corrosion progression of steel, being in battle with a harsh condition (HCl) …

This study introduces a novel surface treatment approach of steel substrate by covalent
modification of graphene oxide (fGO) nanosheets with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane to …

In this work, for the first time, we have used Primula vulgaris flower extract (PVFE) as a green
corrosion inhibitor for mild steel (MS) exposed to 1 M HCl environment. The surface and …

The current research focus is to design a robust micro/nano-structured superhydrophobic
epoxy coating to improve the wetting and anti-corrosion behavior of Q355 mild steel in harsh …

In this study, mesoporous silica served as the host for an eco-friendly corrosion inhibitor.
This material could adsorb and release corrosion inhibitor in different aqueous media. A …

The influences of steel surface treatment by a novel cerium–lanthanum (Ce-La) nanofilm on
the adhesion mechanism of an epoxy adhesive were studied through experimental and …

In this study, a Ti/Zr/V conversion coating (TZVCC) was deposited on the surface of
aluminum alloy 6063 (AA6063) as an alternative of the chromate conversion coating (CCC) …
