Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Corrosion poses a significant challenge in various industries, impacting the durability and performance of metallic materials in harsh environments. This research project focuses on investigating the corrosion behavior of novel alloy coatings as a potential solution to enhance the durability of materials exposed to corrosive conditions. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these coatings in mitigating corrosion and improving the overall performance of materials in harsh environments. The research begins with a comprehensive literature review to examine existing studies on corrosion mechanisms, alloy coatings, and their applications in different industries. This review provides a foundation for understanding the current state-of-the-art technologies and identifies gaps in knowledge that the present study seeks to address. The methodology chapter outlines the experimental procedures and techniques employed to assess the corrosion behavior of the novel alloy coatings. This includes sample preparation, surface analysis, electrochemical testing, and accelerated corrosion testing under simulated harsh environmental conditions. The methodology also incorporates data analysis methods to interpret the experimental results accurately. The findings chapter presents the results of the corrosion tests conducted on the novel alloy coatings and compares their performance with traditional coatings and uncoated materials. The discussion section analyzes the implications of the results, highlighting the effectiveness of the novel coatings in improving corrosion resistance and durability in harsh environments. Furthermore, the study explores the underlying mechanisms of corrosion protection offered by these coatings. In conclusion, this research project contributes to the field of materials and metallurgical engineering by providing insights into the corrosion behavior of novel alloy coatings and their potential applications in enhancing material durability in harsh environments. The study underscores the significance of advanced coatings in mitigating corrosion and improving the longevity of materials, thereby offering sustainable solutions for various industries facing corrosion-related challenges.
