| Summary: | Corrosion is a major problem which contribute to failure and give impact to
the integrity of equipment and pipeline especially in oil and gas industries. Therefore,
several methods such as protective coating need to be applied to prevent the corrosion.
However, protective coating still have possibilities of being harmed to cracks during
its service life. Several methods have been introduced to improve the coating such as
addition of nanocomposite materials or nanofillers. Zinc Oxide (ZnO) is an example
of nanofillers that widely used in many applications. However, it is not effective to
add nanofillers directly into the protective coating. This problem can be overcome by
the uses of carrier to encapsulate the nanofillers. |
