Abstract: | Calcium carbonate nanoparticles (nano‐CaCO3) anchored graphene oxide (GO) sheet nanohybrids (GO‐CaCO3) are fabricated, and their structure can be measured by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction and Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy analysis. Afterwards, composite epoxy coatings, filled with GO and GO‐CaCO3 nanohybrids, are prepared via a curing process. The dispersion and anticorrosive properties of composite epoxy coatings are investigated. The results reveal that GO‐CaCO3 nanohybrids achieve a homogeneous dispersion as well as reinforce corrosion resistance of epoxy coatings. Furthermore, the anticorrosive mechanisms are tentatively proposed for the GO‐CaCO3/epoxy coatings. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
