What is it about?

Surface Analyses by some instruments are the key to clarify surface phenomena of materials for corrosion and surface finishing. In this chapter paper, XRF, XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, AES, SIMS, RBS, SERS and FTIR are explained fundamentally.

Why is it important?

Seeing is believing. Basically, corrosion phenomena should be analyzed electrochemically, but this field could show its performance strongly with the instrumental analyses. This chapter paper will show it concretely. But at the same time, this chapter could be used as fundamental guidebook for those instrumental analyses.

Perspectives

A New or renewed instrumental surface analyses will appear in the future. Also to incorporate the latest methods to your research activities, this chapter will work well.
