My research focuses on understanding and mitigating corrosion in complex and innovative simulated environments.
I investigate microbial corrosion and microbial tribocorrosion in marine applications, as well as the degradation of biometals for medical implants. I also study protective surface coatings and their effectiveness against corrosive processes. This research addresses critical challenges in sustainability, healthcare, and marine industries by improving material durability, reducing maintenance costs, and enhancing safety. My methods combine material characterization with electrochemical techniques such as polarization tests, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, open circuit potential, and Mott–Schottky analysis, together with weight-loss, tribocorrosion, and wear–corrosion evaluations.
