Abstract

Abstract A method for inhibiting corrosion of a substrate by applying to a substrate a corrosion resistant coating comprising a diamond-like solid state material having interpenetrating atomic scale networks of class of diamond-like solid state materials formed from interpenetrating networks comprising a first network of carbon in a diamond-like carbon network stabilized by hydrogen, a silicon network stabilized by oxygen, and optionally at least one network made from dopant elements or dopant compounds containing elements from groups 1-7b and 8 of the periodic table.
