Organic and Inorganic Coatings for Corrosion Prevention - Research and Experiences is a collection of Papers from EUROCORR ''96 and published for the European Federation of Corrosion by The Institute of Materials. In the session on Coatings the following topics were discussed: • Life-time prediction of organic coatings; • Environmentally friendly coatings; • Testing; and • Surface preparation techniques. This book contains a selection of the scientific work presented in the Conference with the aim of focusing on the research developments in the frame of corrosion protection coatings for industrial use. The book is in four sections describing, respectively, organic coatings, zinc coatings, other metallic coatings and ceramic coatings.
