Abstract

Quantum chemical methods are particularly significant in the study of electrochemistry and provide researchers with a relatively quick way of studying the structure and behaviour of corrosion inhibitors. The originality of this review article is based on the fact that it is the first and unique general reference for all those interested in the use of quantum chemical methods in corrosion inhibitor studies. It begins with a concise summary of the most used quantum chemical parameters and methods and then summarizes the results of research articles in corrosion science over the past 20 years.
