- This paper describes the mode of action of an environmentally friendly corrosion inhibitor for paints, designed to replace those based on heavy metals. ToF-SIMS in conjunction with MVA (developed at Surrey and now widely used across the materials and biomedical sciences) has been used to show that corrosion inhibition relies on the formation of specific mineralogical phases, during the degradation of aluminium, in the environs of a lithium containing organic coating. This forms the basis of commercial product lines from Akzo Nobel and has been patent protected by them. The work has been extended with a Horizon 2020 award.
