The main objective of this review is to describe some of the important topics related to the
use of marine and protective coatings for anticorrosive purposes. In this context,“protective” …

Sol–gel protective coatings have shown excellent chemical stability, oxidation control and
enhanced corrosion resistance for metal substrates. Further, the sol–gel method is an …

PEO/Silane/Epoxy coating system with inorganic inhibitor (Ce (NO 3) 3) in the plasma
electrolytic oxidation (PEO) layer as well as organic inhibitors in the silane layer was …

Sol–gel derived films exhibit a high potential as substitutes for the environmentally
unfriendly chromate metal-surface pre-treatment methods. Inorganic sol–gel derived films …

Corrosion degradation of materials and metallic structures is one of the major issues that
give rise to depreciation of assets, causing great financial outlays in their recovery and or …

The work aims at investigating the corrosion behavior of AA2024-T3 substrates pretreated
with sol–gel derived hybrid coatings. The hybrid sols were prepared by copolymerization of …

The development of active corrosion protection systems for metallic substrates is an issue of
prime importance for many industrial applications. The present work shows a new …

Corrosion of metallic components represents a major issue in the aeronautical sector, giving
rise to safety concerns and significant financial damages. Conversion coatings (CC) based …

Sol–gel films are actively investigated during the last decade as possible candidates for
environmentally friendly pre-treatments. However, the important drawback in this case is the …

Nanocontainers with a shell possessing controlled release properties can be used to
fabricate a new family of active coatings that can respond quickly to changes in the coating …
