Continuing with this initiative that I have called “Corrosion Tourism, a trip to learn about the beauty and importance of corrosion in iconic structures”, this time we are going to Japan, in the city of Kamakura, to learn about the history of a bronze statue of Amida Buddha, known as The Great Buddha of Kamakura, the second largest Buddha in Japan

The protection against corrosion of metallic structures exposed in the offshore or onshore marine environment is decisive, and must be estimated..

Researchers at the University of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) have developed a new polymerization process, generating a 2D two-dimensional polymeric material called 2DPA-1, very light and twice as hard as steel.
