Abstract

With the progress of nanoscience and nanotechnology, carbonaceous quantum dots or simply quantum dots (CDs) have opened new frontiers in materials science with their diverse application prospects. The CDs as well as the functionalized CDs-based thin film coatings have also emerged as ecological, environment-friendly, and efficient corrosion inhibitors in the domain of metal protection from the adverse environments. Chemically functionalized CDs possessing conjugated π-bonds extended in their molecular skeleton along with the existence of heteroatoms facilitate them to adsorb and impart barrier property to metallic surfaces owing to their aqueous solubility, bio-compatibility, chemical stability, and high thermal stability as well as their non-flammability. Researches pertaining to chemical functionalization of CDs as well as heteroatoms-doped CDs - new materials for highly efficient corrosion inhibitors for several metallic materials and used in various aggressive electrolytic solutions such as saline water - have been overviewed and discussed comprehensively. Additionally, the various adsorption mechanisms as well as the corrosion inhibition mechanism of CDs on metallic surface have been explored. Finally, the future scope for the targeted functionalization of CDs to be used as efficient anti-corrosive additives for adverse environmental conditions have been discussed.
