This study aims to provide clarity on the potential of graphene in real-life coatings applications and can be viewed as guidelines for graphene end users. To illustrate this, examples of different industrial applications are presented, where graphene-based additives designed by Gerdau Graphene demonstrate a significant impact on corrosion resistance. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms behind these new products are elucidated.
