Abstract
Many sectors struggle with corrosion, which causes economic losses and safety risks. Efficiency, environmental effect, and sustainability are limited by traditional corrosion inhibitors. Nanomaterials enable the development of very efficient corrosion inhibitors. Recent nanomaterial-based corrosion inhibitor technologies and their future possibilities are discussed in this chapter. Recent research has improved nanomaterial-based corrosion inhibitors' efficacy, stability, and sustainability. New concepts include surface functionalization to make it more compatible with the metal substrate, encapsulation to regulate inhibitor release, and multifunctional nanocomposites that can cure and kill bacteria. Nanomaterial-based corrosion inhibitors have several potential prospects. Nanotechnology innovations including customized nanomaterials, better characterization methods, and computer modelling will promote corrosion inhibition innovation. Nanomaterials in smart coatings and self-healing materials might provide real-time corrosion prevention system monitoring and maintenance.
