About this ebook

Corrosion is a great challenge in many industries, especially in the automotive, aerospace, and oil and gas industries, with conservative estimations accounting for losses of around 2.2 trillion US dollars per year in the United States alone. Providing a comprehensive overview of the history and development of nanomaterials, this book discusses various practices for protection against corrosion.

Key Features:

Provides a comprehensive and updated review of major innovations in the field of nanomaterials in industrial, corrosion, and environmental science and engineering

  • Encompasses design, characterization, mechanism, and application of nanomaterials from different strategies on the efficacy and major challenges associated with successful scaleup designing
  • Essential reference for present and future research in nanomaterials
  • Includes relevant aspects of organic and inorganic nanomaterials, hybrid nanomaterials, and nanocoatings in anticorrosion applications

Coalescing a wide range of research on nanomaterials and anticorrosion practices, this book is of particular appeal to students, industry professionals, and academics.
