Corrosion is a major issue in many processes, and one that has significant implications in terms of cost, efficiency and environmental consequences. As a result, efforts are continually being made to understand and protect against corrosion. This book brings the reader the latest scientific and practical advances on the topic. It draws from expert research conducted around the world in laboratory and industrial contexts for a thorough and practical picture. In the first part of the book, the authors review some new developments in corrosion protection. The contributors present research on topics including anti-corrosion coatings, the principles and applications of corrosion inhibitors, environmentally friendly approaches, the application of hybrid conducting nanocomposite coatings, and a study of the corrosion of biomaterials used in dentistry. In part two, the practical and theoretical aspects of environmental and industrial corrosion are explored. Topics examined include laser material processing for better corrosion performance and the galvanic corrosion behaviour of dental alloys. This is a very wide-ranging book, strongly focused on real-world applications, which will be a useful resource for students and researchers in this crucial area of materials science.
