Several strategies can be employed to mitigate corrosion in catalytic systems:
- Material Selection: Using corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or coated metals can significantly reduce corrosion. - Protective Coatings: Applying coatings like ceramics, polymers, or paints can act as a barrier to corrosive agents. - Inhibitors: Adding chemical inhibitors to the environment can slow down the corrosion process. - Environmental Control: Controlling the temperature, humidity, and chemical composition of the environment can reduce corrosion rates. - Cathodic Protection: Using sacrificial anodes or impressed current systems can protect the primary metal from corrosion.
