摘要
Two-dimensional Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) flakes have great application potential in various areas due to their optical,electronic,electrochemical and mechanical properties,but their anti-corrosion and wear-resistance performance were not well understood.The difficulties in achieving good dispersity and interface interaction of inorganic additives in organic coatings hinder the incorporation of Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) into the epoxy coating.Here,few-layered Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) sheets with amino-functionalization were prepared,and as reinforced-additives were added into the waterborne epoxy coating.Anti-corrosion and tribological properties of as-prepared composite coatings were investigated in detail.The results reveal that the composite coating with 0.5 wt.%amino-functionalized Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) sheets shows excellent corrosion protection(the lowest frequency impedance was 3.12×10^(9) cm^(2))and wear resistance(wear rate was reduced by 72.74%).The greatly improving performance of composite coatings mainly depends on:(a)good dispersity and compatibility of amino-functionalized Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) in organic matrix,(b)high adhesion strength between coating and metal substrate and(c)the intrinsic properties of Ti3C2Tx sheets.The work provides a good path for applications of MXene as multifunctional additives.
