The chemistry of rare earth metals, compounds, and corrosion inhibitors -- Testing and analysis techniques in rare earth inhibitor research -- Corrosion inhibition with rare earth metal compounds in aqueous solutions -- Multifunctional rare earth organic corrosion inhibitors -- Anodized anti-corrosion coatings for aluminium using rare earth metals -- Corrosion-resistant polymer coatings containing rare earth compounds -- Coatings for corrosion prevention based on rare earths -- Novel and self-healing anticorrosion coatings using rare earth compounds -- Tunable multifunctional corrosion-resistant metallic coatings containing rare earth elements -- The cost and availability of rare earth-based corrosion inhibitors.
Summary:
"Corrosion inhibitors are an important method for minimizing corrosion; however traditional inhibitors such as chromates pose environmental problems. Rare earth metals provide an important, environmentally-friendly alternative. This book provides a comprehensive review of current research and examines how rare earth metals can be used to prevent corrosion and applied to protect metals in such industries as aerospace and construction"--Back cover.
