The Corrosion Science and Surface Engineering Group (CSSE) has been dedicated to R&D in the areas of Electrochemistry, Corrosion Science and Engineering, and Functionalization of surfaces and interfaces. The main targets are to increase the knowledge on the mechanisms and kinetics of corrosion processes and to develop materials with advanced properties and higher performance, for industrial applications, namely in Aeronautics, Automotive, Construction, Medicine and Energy storage.
