Abstract | Inorganic, organic, and metallic coatings have received much attention due to their great protection applications in oil and gas industries and their development through finding eco-friendly materials for the coatings. Their unique structure, low cost, and facile synthesis are some of the few properties of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) materials that make them useful in a number of applications. Moreover, g-C3N4 offers exceptional chemical and thermal stability and a high specific surface area, and it is well known for its outstanding biocompatibility and biological activity. Numerous investigations have reported various types of C3N4-incorporated coatings that have enhanced corrosion, wear, and mechanical resistance properties. This review highlights the new applications of g-C3N4 (standalone, in an alloy, or composite) as a coating in the wear and corrosion protection fields. Furthermore, a strong focus on the structure, unique properties, and preparation technique of g-C3N4 are summarized, especially in metallic coatings, which is a highly novel trend. Lastly, various important issues based on current research are proposed for future prospective work that should be further studied in this attractive research topic. |
