Sol‐Gel Coating on CA‐60 Steel Surfaces: A Process for Corrosion Inhibition
Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.30% of the steel produced worldwide is used to replace losses due to corrosion. The application of the sol‐gel process to inhibit and delay deterioration appears as a viable methodology for protection against aggressive environments. ABSTRACT The phenomenon of corrosion causes worldwide damage, which is not only economic but also results in the loss of
