PROTECTIVE COATINGS: A BARRIER AGAINST CORROSION

Corrosion presents a significant threat to structural assets, leading to degradation and eventual malfunction. To combat this, protective coatings act as a vital barrier against the detrimental effects of the environment. These coatings create a physical interface between the metal and the corrosive agents, thereby inhibiting the corrosion process.

The Threats of Corrosion and the Use of Plant-Based Products as Solutions Corrosion is a natural process that weakens materials, especially metals, due to chemical reactions with their surroundings. This phenomenon poses significant risks across various sectors, including construction, transportation, and manufacturing, leading to substantial econ
