Abstract
The review will first discuss shortly the phenomenon of corrosion and enroll some general possibilities to decrease the rate of this deterioration. The stress will be laid upon the presentation of anticorrosive self-assembled molecular (SAM) layers as well as on the preparation technology that is a simple technique, does not need any special device, and can be applied on different solids (metals or non-metals) alone or in combination. The paper groups the chemicals (mainly amphiphiles) that can develop nanolayers on different pure or oxidized metal surfaces. The history of the self-assembled molecular layer will be discussed from the beginning of the first application up to now. Not only the conditions of the nanofilm preparation as well as their characterization will be discussed, but the methods that can evaluate the corrosion-inhibiting efficiency of the SAM layers under a corrosive environment will be demonstrated as well.
