They can also provide the scientific basis for forming corrosion mitigation strategies, including protective coatings, inhibitors, surface treatments, and other preventative techniques. The modeling and prediction of material degradation in corrosive environments is equally significant. Accurate predictive tools are crucial for safety assessments, maintenance scheduling, risk management, and the life-cycle optimization of infrastructure and industrial components.
