Nano-modified composite coatings have illustrated a promising prospect for protecting
cement-based material due to their excellent functional properties. This paper reviews the …

Internal microbiologically influenced corrosion (IMIC) is recognized as one of the primary
reasons causing failures of natural gas pipelines. In this work, a critical review was …

In this work, zinc nano-coatings were fabricated on a carbon steel by electrodeposition and
stearic acid modification, featuring superhydrophobicity and enhanced antifouling …

Two drugs (cefpirome, cefixime) as dual-action inhibitors could self-organize on copper
surface forming bio-functional protective film, which effectively prevents copper corrosion in …

The self-cleaning and antibacterial properties of waterborne polyurethane (WPU) films are
realized by constructing a micronano structure on its surface via the controlled aggregation …

Herein, we reported the photo-catalytic degradation/anti-bacterial property of Ag-doped ZnO
nanoparticles (SDZO Nps) prepared by a facile gel-combustion technique and its self …

Abstract A nanostructured Fe 2 O 3/CdZnS/ZnS composite film was constructed on EH40
steel using anodization, hydrothermal, and successive ionic layer absorption and reaction …

Biofilm formation is an important cause of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), and
inhibition of microbial adhesion is one of the most effective ways to control biofilm formation …

Materials are exposed to the action of environment which often shortens their useful life;
paints are efficient systems designed to protect them because of their cost/benefits ratio …

Biofilms formed by different bacterial species are likely to play key roles in photocatalytic
resistance. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a photocatalytic immobilized nanotube …
