Surfactants for Corrosion Protection, Gebunden

Klappentext

Corrosion costs industry billions of dollars each year. Surfactants are an emerging technology in corrosion protection, offering effective and environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional solutions. Beginning with the principles of surfactants and their chemistry, this book describes their mechanisms for inhibiting corrosion. The second part of the book examines the diverse types of surfactants available, demonstrating which applications suit their unique properties. Further chapters dedicated to different industries combine this knowledge with a real-world perspective, making this an essential resource for researchers and professionals. Consideration is given to the environmental and health impacts of surfactants as the book concludes with several chapters reviewing future directions in this technology, such as nano-, and bio-based surfactants.
