Encapsulated Corrosion Inhibitors for Eco-Benign Smart Coatings

This book covers all the recent advancements and technologies developed for encapsulated corrosion inhibitors-based coatings by using eco-benign and sustainable encapsulated smart coatings based on self-healing functionality. It includes overview of properties and applicability of encapsulated inhibitors, methodologies to detect corrosion, and recent developments made in the field of corrosion science to study the inhibition potential of encapsulated corrosion inhibitors for eco-benign smart coatings in several corrosive systems.

Features:

• Covers encapsulation of the corrosion inhibitor which explores the self-healing mechanism of the smart coatings.
• Includes encapsulated corrosion inhibitor fabrication, synthesis, modeling, functionalization, classification, characteristics, and so forth.
• Reviews effectiveness and significant constraints of scale-up engineering.
• Discusses the fundamental characteristics of industrial-scale application research for encapsulated corrosion inhibitors.
• Explores entire aspects of encapsulated corrosion inhibitors-based sustainable smart coatings in one place.

This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students of corrosion engineering, surface engineering, and chemistry engineering.
