Conservation Science – Corrosion and protection of materials

Damage estimation, conservation and restoration of historic monuments and cultural heritage objects

• Conservation of historic monuments and cultural heritage objects by diagnostic methods
• Non Destructive Techniques of study.
• Synthesis and application of advanced coatings, nanocomposite coatings / coatings with semiconductive properties / coatings with hydrophobic – superhydrophobic properties, for the protection of the building materials.
• Influence of environmental conditions in corrosion and deterioration of materials.

Corrosion, Stress Corrosion Cracking and Protection of metals

• Protection of metals (aluminium, steels) from corrosion by advanced nanocomposite materials.
• Application of electrochemical methods for the study of corrosion of metals and the protective properties of coatings.
