摘要
Owing to the carcinogenic nature of chromate coatings, alternate coatings with intrinsically conducting polymers such as polyaniline (PANI) and polypyrrole (Ppy) have been developed. Hence a study has been made on the effect of electropolymerised PANI films on corrosion protection performance of epoxy coating on AA 2024 and M 7075 aluminium alloys. Polyaniline was electropolymerised on both the alloys by galvanostatic method. A post treatment of cecrium was given to seal the pinholes of PANI film. Epoxy coating was applied over these films and their corrosion protection performance was found out by EIS studies in 3% NaCl and salt spray test. EIS studies have shown that the coating resistance (R-c) of PANI with the epoxy coated aluminium alloys has remained above 10(6) Omega cm(2) whereas the alloys coated with epoxy alone have shown the R-c values less than 10(4) Omega cm(2). Besides, the salt spray tests showed a better corrosion protection of PANI with epoxy coated aluminium alloys. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
