This paper is a review of the most recent and relevant achievements (from 2001 to 2013) on
the development of organic–inorganic hybrid (OIH) coatings produced by sol–gel-derived …

The search for new alternatives to replace chromate-based coatings is a matter of great
importance. Since their official ban due to the raised concerns of hexavalent chromium to the …

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 …

The self‐healing anticorrosion effect of layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembled nanoreservoirs
(polyelectrolyte‐coated nanoparticles) embedded in a hybrid coating deposited onto an Al …

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 …

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 …

Nanostructured hybrid sol–gel coatings doped with cerium ions were investigated in the
present work as pre-treatments for the AA2024-T3 alloy. The sol–gel films have been …

This book chronicles the proceedings of the Fifth International Symposium held on this topic
in Toronto. A total of 26 papers covering many ramifications of silanes and other coupling …

Fabricating adhesive coatings such as organic coatings with adequate corrosion protection
has been a concern due to the presence of oxide-hydroxide-carbonate deposits on the Mg …

The mechanism of corrosion protection of the widely used 2024-T3 aluminum alloy by
cerium and lanthanum inhibitors in chloride media is described in detail in the present work …
