The coating has ease of handling and faster installation that allow for quick pipeline rehabilitation without shutdown. The research work employs nanostructured material engineering approach, laboratory testing and analytical simulations. Major tasks of the research are: 1) development of inorganic coating with nano modification; 2) corrosion testing; 3) durability and adhesion testing; 4) fiber-reinforced coating composite; and 5) analytical study of pipeline strengthening system.119
