Abstract
CORROSION inhibitors are vital for protecting metallic substrates, either as standalone treatments present in surrounding electrolytes, or as leaching components in active protective coatings. While organic molecules offer tremendous versatility due to their nearly infinite structural tunability, their electrochemical performance still falls short of traditional chromate-based systems, especially under dynamic environments present in service conditions. This dissertation aims to analyse the potential of organic molecules as corrosion inhibitors for aerospace alloys by applying a systematic and multidisciplinary approach to evaluate, understand, and ultimately improve the electrochemical performance, stability, and long-termefficacy....
