Abstract
Research and development in advanced corrosion prevention strategies for potential industrial applications are of paramount importance. This chapter aims to provide recent advancements in two prospective corrosion prevention strategies falling under surface coating and cathodic protection. Primarily, the impending technologies such as smart coating and photoelectrochemical cathodic protection are described. On-demand release smart nano/microcontainers are discussed with reference to supramolecular interactions under four subheads, namely, polymer-based, host-guest chemistry-based, inorganic clay-based, and polyelectrolyte-based. The basics of photoelectrochemical cathodic protection that uses solar energy to generate electricity using a semiconductor photoelectrode are described along with the mostly used titania photoanodes. Different approaches to augment the photoactivity and electron storage ability of the photoanodes are briefed.
