Sol-gel coatings of TiO2 have been prepared from TiO2 sol and deposited by a dip-coating technique on 316L stainless steel sheets to study their electrochemical behavior in corrosive solutions. The influence of the coatings on the chemical corrosion of the substrate was evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization curves in different aqueous NaCl solution at 25°C. Comparative tests were performed on uncoated one. The thickness of the TiO2 coatings varied from 0.5~0.8 µm. The values of the electrochemical parameters allow for an explanation of the role of the TiO2 films in the increased resistance of stainless steel against corrosion in moderately aggressive environments.

Chapter 12 describes material aspects of everyday products. For example, the role of nanoparticles in sunscreens. It also covers surfactants and their role in micelles in washing-up liquids. The role of nanotechnology in cosmetics is stressed. The surprising use of hydrogels in disposable nappies (diapers) and the role of microstructure in sweets such as hard candy (boiled sweets) are described. Other everyday products include breathable garments, stainless steel and acrylic textiles.
