Course content
Metallic materials properties, degrading changes caused by corrosion, corrosion theory, corrosive attack development. Major factors affecting electrochemical corrosion of metals, types of corrosive factors affecting corrosion rate. Metal corrosive attack types and special corrosion cases, non-metallic materials corrosion, corrosion resistance of plastics. Procedures of corrosion protection by means of material choice, metallic materials potentials, organic materials properties, inorganic non-metallic materials. Corrosion protection by means of organic coatings, protective coatings function. Special functional coatings design, metallic coatings and sheetings, enamels. Application and properties of protective coatings prepared by means of coating compositions designed for metallic materials, objects and constructions corrosion protection. Coating compositions components, solvents, additives. Bindings for coating compositions, organic and inorganic film-forming agents. Design of protective coatings for non-metallic materials surface treatment. Combined coatings, protective coatings for surface treatment of plastics and mineral bases. Protective coatings formulation guides, methods, equipment and production process. Resistance of protective coatings and coating compositions for metallic materials treatment, methods and evaluation methods of surface protection resistance and efficiency. Ecological trends in surface protections, methods for part of volatiles organic parts and aromatic solvents decreasing.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Monologic (reading, lecture, briefing)
Learning outcomes
The subject acquaints the students with issues regarding surface treatment of metallic and non-metallic materials. Guides for protective coatings design and production are listed. An excursion to the manufacturing plants dealing with coating compositions production or their applications is organized during the semester. There is a focus on ecological solutions of surface treatments. Aim of the subject is to acquaint the students with corroding process mechanisms and possibilities of material corrosion protection. Special attention is dedicated to atmospheric corrosion and metallic materials protection by means of coating.
Graduate is well versed in the branch of corrosion and materials protection after the graduation. He/she is qualified to make decisions about choice of appropriate corrosion protection against atmospheric corrosion.
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of inorganic and organic chemistry.

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination, Written examination

There is an oral examination. Primary form of exam is the debate about selected themes. Level of acquired knowledge, conceptions and application acquirements is examined. Knowledge is examined by test during semester and its result is included into total classification.
