Progress in Anti-corrosive Treatment of Metals by Silanization

A novel protective surface treatment of metals by silanization is reviewed.Studies on preparation and characterization of silane films,the performance of silanized electrodes was presented.Two fundamental problems—hydrolysis and failure of silane solution,which can help us get insight in the properties of silane film on metal substrates and have crucial effect on optimizing the preparation of it,are discussed as well.The more promising electrodeposition of silane films and prospects are also presented.
