Grafted Biopolymers as Aqueous Corrosion Inhibitors: Safety, Sustainability, and Efficiency

Corrosion is a major concern in many industries, causing significant economic losses and safety hazards. Traditional corrosion inhibitors are toxic and non-biodegradable, posing environmental and health problems. Biopolymers, on the other hand, represent a viable alternative because they are sourced from renewable resources, biodegradable, and generally non-toxic. This chapter investigates the potential of grafted biopolymers as efficient and durable corrosion inhibitors for aqueous systems. This chapter covers several grafting procedures and the many sorts of functional groups that can be added to boost the inhibitor’s efficacy. It also discusses the synthesis, characterization, and corrosion prevention effectiveness of several grafted biopolymers in aquatic environments. The chapter delves deeper into these materials’ safety and sustainability, with a focus on biocompatibility and environmental friendliness. Finally, the chapter reviews the current state of research and development for grafted biopolymers as corrosion inhibitors. It also addresses research difficulties and future prospects, with a focus on enhancing the materials’ efficiency, durability, and applicability in a variety of industrial settings.
