The present disclosure is generally directed to nanoparticle-containing media exhibiting enhanced optical transparency, related nanoparticles, and associated systems and methods. In certain embodiments, the refractive index (RI) of a nanoparticle comprising thermochromic material (such as VO2) can be made closer to the refractive index of a surrounding medium by tethering a material (such as a gradient copolymer) to the core region of the nanoparticle to modify the refractive index of the nanoparticle. Modifying the refractive index of the nanoparticle to be closer to the refractive index of the medium that contains the nanoparticle can render the nanoparticle-containing medium (also referred, to herein as a composite) more transparent to various wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation while imparting thermochromic properties to the nanoparticle-containing medium.

Treatment compositions include a mixture of a corrosion inhibitor and a functionalized particulate in a solvent. The functionalized particulate includes both epoxy and amine groups. Surfaces coated with the treatment composition have improved corrosion inhibition performance, and/or greater duration of corrosion inhibition performance with respect to corrodents such as CO.sub.2 and H.sub.2S when compared to the corrosion inhibition performance of the same corrosion inhibitor coating in the absence of the functionalized particulate. The coatings including functionalized particulate are usefully applied to one or more interior and/or exterior surfaces of containments, separators, conduits, and other equipment, such well string completion components, that are contacted by fluids containing corrodents.
