Research and Publications

The long-term goal of our research is to predict corrosion and surface reactions of relevance for health, environmental, and societal safety. No material is completely inert. When in contact with different environments, interfacial reactions can result in different adverse effects, such as allergic reactions, neurodegenerative diseases, environmental pollution, or material failure.
