Epoxy polymer coating to prevent the corrosion of aluminum nanoparticles

Aluminum nanoparticles were coated by epoxy polymer in order to prevent the corrosion reaction. The coverage of the epoxy polymer film was controlled from 0% to 100%, which changed the corrosion rate of nanoparticles quantitatively. The surface of the polymer coating was investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), and the corrosion resistance of these nanoparticles was estimated by the wet/dry corrosion test on platinum (Pt) plate with a NaCl solution. From a TEM analysis, 10 mass% polymer‐coated Al particles in the synthesis were almost 100% covered on the surface by a polymer film of 10 nm thick. On the other hand, 3 mass% polymer‐coated Al was partially covered by a film. In the AFM–Kelvin force microscopy, the potential around the Al particles had a relatively low value by the polymer coating, which indicated that the conductivity of the Al was isolated from Pt plate by the polymer. Both the corrosion and H₂ evolution reaction rates were quantitatively reduced by the mass% of polymer coating. In the case of 10 mass% coated sample, there was very little corrosion of Al nanoparticles. This fact suggested that the electrochemical reaction was suppressed by the polymer coating. Thus, it was found that the corrosion reaction rate of Al nanoparticles could be quantitatively suppressed by the mass% of epoxy coating. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Development of multifunctional polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)‐epoxy‐zinc oxide nanocomposite coatings for marine applications

Multifunctional epoxy‐polydimethylsiloxane nanocomposite coatings with antifouling and anticorrosion characteristics have been developed via in situ polymerization method at different loading (1, 3, and 6.5 wt.%) of ZnO nanoparticles to cater marine applications. A detailed comparative analysis has been carried out between epoxy‐polydimethylsiloxane control (EPC) and ZnO‐reinforced coatings to determine the influence of ZnO loading on various properties. The incorporation of ZnO in EPC led to increase in root mean square (RMS) roughness to 126.75 nm and improved hydrophobicity showing maximum contact angle of 123.5° with low surface energy of 19.75 mN/m of nanocomposite coating as compared with control coating. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) result indicated improved glass transition temperature of nanocomposite coatings with highest T_g obtained at 83.69°C in case of 1 wt.% loading of ZnO. The increase in hydrophobicity of the system was accompanied by upgraded anticorrosion performance exhibiting 98.8% corrosion inhibition efficiency (CIE) as compared with control coating and lower corrosion rate of 0.12 × 10^?3 mm/year. The Taber abrasion resistance and pull‐off adhesion strength results indicated an increment of 34.7% and 150.7%, respectively, in case of nanocomposite coating as compared with the control coating. The hardness of nanocomposite coatings was also improved, and maximum hardness was found to be 65.75 MPa for nanocomposite coating with 1 wt.% of ZnO. Our study showed that the nanocomposite coating was efficient in inhibiting accumulation of marine bacteria and preventing biofouling for more than 8 months. The developed environment‐friendly and efficient nanocomposite material has a promising future as a high‐performance anticorrosive and antifouling coating for marine applications.     

Electrochemical behavior of polypyrrole-coated AZ31 alloy modified by fluoride anions

The electrochemical polymerization of polypyrrole (Ppy) films on AZ31Mg alloys was carried out using cyclic voltammetery in 0.5 M sodium salicylate solution containing 0.25 M pyrrole and different concentration of sodium fluoride (NaF). Corrosion performance of the Ppy film was assessed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization tests in 3.5 % NaCl solution. It was observed that Ppy coatings doped in the presence of 100 ppm NaF provide the best corrosion protection for magnesium and the corrosion potential shifted about 290 mV toward nobler potentials and decrease the corrosion current density about one order of magnitude. The surface analysis of the coatings showed that the addition of F^? dopant anions led to an improvement in the smoothness, thickness, and adhesion quality of the synthesized Ppy coating on the Mg surface. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies of the fluoride-doped Ppy films revealed that the synthesized coating has a closely packed globular structure which was composed of nanoparticles of Ppy.

hytic Acid Conversion Coatings of Magnesium

A chrome‐free conversion coating treatment for magnesium by phytic acid solution was developed. The immersion experiments were used for evaluating the effects of the processing parameters (such as conversion temperature and time, concentration and pH value of phytic acid solution) on the corrosion resistance of the phytic acid conversion coating. The morphologies and compositions of the coatings were determined by SEM and EDS respectively. The experimental results indicated that the corrosion resistance of the conversion coating formed in the solution containing 0.5% phytic acid at 25°C and pH=4 for 30 min was higher than that of natural oxide, and the conversion coating formed on the surface of magnesium was of multilayer mainly consisting of Mg, C, O and P. The thicknesses of the conversion coatings were approximately 1.0–15 µm and the conversion coatings presented obvious network‐like cracks. The electrochemical potentiodynamic polarization experiment indicated that the free corrosion potential of the magnesium with phytic acid conversion coating was increased, and its corrosion current and corrosion rate declined in 3.5% NaCl solution. Phytic acid conversion coating could improve the electrochemical property of magnesium and provide effective protection, which can improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium.

Electrochemical study of the corrosion inhibition ability of “smart” coatings applied on AA2024

Smart epoxy coatings modified with different additives were applied on AA2024. The following three different systems were studied: a reference consisting of an epoxy coating containing chromate active pigments and two “smart” coatings modified with containers loaded with corrosion inhibitor—layered double hydroxides filled with mercaptobenzothiazole and tubular halloysites (HS) filled with 8-hydroxyquinoline. The thickness of the coatings was determined by scanning electron microscopy. The barrier properties and the average corrosion resistance were assessed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The long-term corrosion repair ability of the various coatings was confirmed by EIS measurements carried for a period of 3 weeks in scratched samples. The ability of the smart additives to inhibit corrosion over defects with different sizes and geometry was studied at the microscale by using localized impedance spectroscopy (LEIS) and the scanning vibrating electrode technique. The results demonstrate that the additives provide effective corrosion inhibition on defects of various sizes. Moreover, the LEIS measurements give some important highlights concerning the mechanisms and kinetics of inhibition of each system.     

Electrodeposition of Al-Ti alloy on mild steel from AlCl<Subscript>3</Subscript>-BMIC ionic liquid

The electrodeposition of Al-Ti alloy on a mild steel substrate is examined in a Lewis acidic 66.7–33.3 mol% AlCl₃-1-buthyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquid containing TiCl₄. Dense and compact Al-Ti alloy coatings with Ti content ranging from 5.3 to 11.4 at.% can be obtained under optimized conditions. The applied current densities and TiCl₄ concentration are found to play central roles in controlling the alloy compositions and surface morphologies of the resultant Al-Ti alloy coatings. Ti content in Al-Ti alloys increases with initial increase in the current density and decreases when the current density is beyond 5 mA cm^?2. In addition, the enhanced corrosion resistance of the mild steel substrate by the deposited Al-Ti alloy layers is evaluated via electrochemical techniques. The Al-Ti alloy coatings show much higher corrosion resistance than single Al coating, and this performance is improved with the increase of the Ti content.     

Corrosion resistance and cytotoxicity of a MgF2 coating on biomedical Mg–1Ca alloy via vacuum evaporation deposition method

To reduce the biocorrosion rate and enhance the biocompatibility by surface modification, MgF₂ coatings were prepared on Mg–1Ca alloy using vacuum evaporation deposition method. The average thickness of the coating was about 0.95 µm. The results of immersion test and electrochemical test indicated that the corrosion rate of Mg–1Ca alloy was effectively decreased after coating with MgF₂. The MgF₂ coating induced calcium phosphate deposition on Mg–1Ca alloy. After 72 h culture, MG63 cells and MC3T3‐E1 cells were well spread on the surface of the MgF₂‐coated Mg–1Ca alloy, while few cells were observed on uncoated Mg–1Ca alloy samples. In summary, MgF₂ coating showed beneficial effects on the corrosion resistance and thus improved cell response of the Mg–1Ca alloy effectively and should be a good surface modification method for other biomedical magnesium alloys.
