The influence of content of Na2WO4 and combination additive in solution on the performance of black ceramic coatings was studied; the anticorrosion performances of black ceramic coatings were evaluated through whole-immersion test and electrochemical method in 3.5% NaCl solution at different pH value; SEM and XRD were used to analyze the surface morphology and phase constitutes of the black ceramic coatings. Experimental results indicated that, without combination additives, with the increasing of Na2WO4 content in the electrolyte, ceramic coating became darker and thicker, but the color was not black; after adding combination additive, the coating turned to be black; the black ceramic coating was multi-hole form in surface. There was a small quantity of tungsten existing in the black ceramic coating beside α-Al2O3 phase and β-Al2O3 phase. And aluminum alloy with black ceramic coating exhibited excellent anti-corrosion property in acid, basic and neutral 3.5% NaCl solution.展开更多

The relationship between curing conversion rate of hybrid polymer and temperature was investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The adhesion strength, coefficient of thermal expansion and flame retardant properties of three anti-corrosion materials were measured and analyzed. A corrosion test in 8% H2SO4 and 5% HCl at temperature cycle of 40°C~ 160°C was applied to study corrosion resistance of several anti-corrosion materials. Gravimetric measurement and morphological observation of three materials before and after corrosion test were comparatively analyzed in the paper. The small weight change and good morphological structure of hybrid composite during corrosion test demonstrate that hybrid composite has better anti-corrosion properties than epoxy modified silicone coating and vinyl ester flake mastic.展开更多

However, anti-corrosion performance of Mg alloy is poor due to the high chemical activity and low equilibrium potential, which limits the development of Mg alloy products.Herein, three-dimensional mesopore hollow polypyrrole spheres(MHPS) were prepared, and the MHPS was inserted into the middle of the stacked hexagon boron nitride(h-BN) lamellae, which allowed the hBN to be separated forming a further composite with abundant pore structure. Subsequently, the MHPS/hBN-OH composite was uniformly sprayed on the Mg alloy surface via simple spraying method to form the superhydrophobic surface(SHS). Finally, the slippery liquid infused porous surface(SLIPS) was successfully fabricated by applying drops of silicone lubricant on the superhydrophobic coating surface. After a series of characterization and testing, the results showed that the stacking of h-BN lamellae was significantly reduced after h-BN was successfully embedded by MHPS. In addition, the fabricated SLIPS have excellent self-cleaning, mechanical stability, anti-icing and anti-corrosion properties. Therefore, the method of embedding polymer microspheres not only offers a new strategy for h-BN exfoliation, but also the successful prepared SLIPS largely retards the corrosion of Mg alloy while providing new ideas for the development of SLIPS.展开更多

文摘In this work,graphene-modified epoxy-based anti-corrosion coatings were prepared and the influence of graphene on the anti-corrosion performance of the epoxy-based coatings was investigated with water contact angle test,chemical solution immersion test,and electrochemical test.The water contact angle and chemical solution resistance of the epoxy-based coatings were improved with an increase in graphene content from 0 to 0.4%.These results prove that addition of graphene can significantly improve the hydrophobicity and impermeability of epoxybased coatings.However,when the graphene content was increased to 0.5%,the performance of the epoxy-based coatings decreased because of graphene aggregation.Tafel polarization results showthat graphene addition can significantly reduce the corrosion current density and corrosion potential of epoxy-based coatings,which enhance their anti-corrosion performance.

文摘As a passive anti-icing strategy,properly designed superhydrophobic coatings can demonstrate outstanding performances.However,common preparation strategies for superhydrophobic coatings often lead to environmental pollution,high energy-consumption,high-cost and other undesirable issues.Besides,the durability of superhydrophobic coating also plagues its commercial application.In this paper,we introduced a facile and environment-friendly technique for fabricating abrasion-resistant superhydrophobic surfaces using thermoplastic polyurethane(TPU)and modified SiO_(2)particles(SH-SiO_(2)).Both materials are non-toxicity,low-cost,and commercial available.Our methodology has the following advantages:use of minimal amounts of formulation,take the most streamlined technical route,and no waste material.These advantages make it attractive for industrial applications,and its usage sustainability can be promised.In this study,the mechanical stability of the superhydrophobic surface was evaluated by linear wear test.It is found that the excellent wear resistance of the superhydrophobic coating benefits from the characteristics of raw materials,the preparation strategy,and the special structure.In anti-icing properties test,the TPU/SH-SiO_(2)coating exhibits the repellency to the cold droplets and the ability to extend the freezing time.The electrochemical corrosion measurement shows that the asprepared superhydrophobic surface has excellent corrosion resistance that can provide effective protection for the bare Q235 substrates.These results indicate that the TPU/SH-SiO_(2)coating possesses good abrasion resistance and has great potential in anti-corrosion and anti-icing applications.

文摘A TiO_(2)@o-vanillin@TEOS-APTES nanocontainer was prepared by an experimental process in which,firstly,2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde(o-vanillin)was loaded in a TiO_(2) container to obtain TiO_(2)@o-vanillin.Then,TiO_(2)@o-vanillin was encapsulated by tetraethyl orthosilicate(TEOS).Finally,3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane(APTES)was used to modify the obtained sample.The morphology,structural phase and thermal stability of the TiO_(2)@o-vanillin@TEOS-APTES nanocontainer were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy(SEM),energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),X-ray diffractometry(XRD)and thermal gravimetric analysis(TG).The release rate of o-vanillin was investigated using an ultraviolet-visible(UV-vis)spectrometer.The anti-corrosion performances of the epoxy,epoxy@o-vanillin and epoxy@TiO_(2)@o-vanillin@TEOS-APTES coatings on steel sheets were evaluated using an electrochemical method and scarification experiments.The results showed that the impedance value of the epoxy@TiO_(2)@o-vanillin@TEOS-APTES coating was two orders of magnitude higher than that of the blank epoxy coating,and one order of magnitude higher than that of the epoxy@o-vanillin coating.The maximum inhibition rate of the epoxy@TiO_(2)@o-vanillin@TEOS-APTES coating on the steel can reach 97.3%.The scarification experiments confirmed that the epoxy@TiO_(2)@o-vanillin@TEOS-APTES coating had the best anti-corrosion performance.

文摘In an era where the concept of green development is deeply rooted, magnesium(Mg) alloy as a light metal has a long-term development prospect in the process of energy saving, emission reduction and environmental improvement. However, anti-corrosion performance of Mg alloy is poor due to the high chemical activity and low equilibrium potential, which limits the development of Mg alloy products.Herein, three-dimensional mesopore hollow polypyrrole spheres(MHPS) were prepared, and the MHPS was inserted into the middle of the stacked hexagon boron nitride(h-BN) lamellae, which allowed the hBN to be separated forming a further composite with abundant pore structure. Subsequently, the MHPS/hBN-OH composite was uniformly sprayed on the Mg alloy surface via simple spraying method to form the superhydrophobic surface(SHS). Finally, the slippery liquid infused porous surface(SLIPS) was successfully fabricated by applying drops of silicone lubricant on the superhydrophobic coating surface. After a series of characterization and testing, the results showed that the stacking of h-BN lamellae was significantly reduced after h-BN was successfully embedded by MHPS. In addition, the fabricated SLIPS have excellent self-cleaning, mechanical stability, anti-icing and anti-corrosion properties. Therefore, the method of embedding polymer microspheres not only offers a new strategy for h-BN exfoliation, but also the successful prepared SLIPS largely retards the corrosion of Mg alloy while providing new ideas for the development of SLIPS.

文摘In order to meet the requirements of the marine environment for microwave absorption(MA)materials,we put forward the strategy of constructing multi-functional composite materials,which integrate microwave absorption,anti-corrosion,and antibacterial properties.Herein,graphene oxide(GO)was used as a template to induce the growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8(ZIF-8),simultaneously as a two-dimensional(2D)nanocontainers to load corrosion inhibitors to achieve pH-responsive and self-healing properties.Finally,quaternary ammonium salt(dimethyl octadecyl(3-trimethoxylsilyl propyl)ammonium chloride(DMAOP))and sodium ascorbate(VCNa)were introduced to achieve synergistic antibacterial activity and the reduction of GO.The 2D strip-like structure of ZIF-8 was due to the confined growth induced by the electrostatic attraction between ZIF-8 and GO sheets.The as-obtained reduced GO(RGO)/ZIF-8/DMAOP5 exhibited excellent microwave absorption(MA)properties,with a minimum reflection loss(RL)value of-47.08 dB at 12.73 GHz when the thickness was 2.8 mm.Moreover,the effective absorption bandwidth reached 6.84 GHz.After soaking in 3.5%NaCl solution for 35 days,the RGO/ZIF-8/DMAOP5-0.7%coating still achieved an impedance value of 4.585×107Ω·cm^(2) and a protective efficiency of 99.994%,providing superior anti-corrosion properties.In addition,fantastic antibacterial activity was obtained,with the antibacterial rates of RGO/ZIF-8/DMAOP_(10) reaching 99.39%and 100%against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.This work could open new avenues towards the development of a new generation of multifunctional MA materials.

文摘Bio-inspired superhydrophobic magnesium(Mg)alloy surfaces are of increasing interest in corrosion protection due to superior barrier and shielding effects.However,superhydrophobic(SHB)anti-corrosion surfaces are susceptible to damage,which limit their extensive applications.To this end,a micro/nano structure-functional molecule SHB composite coating with self-healing and active anti-corrosion dual-function properties was designed on Mg alloys substrate.The dual-function SHB composite anti-corrosion coating based on lauric acid(La)intercalated and modified hydrotalcite(La-LDH)consisted of three-layer structure,namely La-LDH powder/polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)/La-LDH film.The anti-corrosion performance of as-prepared coatings was investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).The results indicate that the SHB coating shows excellent active corrosion resistance.Moreover,we also examined the self-healing and anti-corrosion properties of SHB coating upon physical damage and explained the healing mechanism.After heat treatment,the damaged SHB coating regain its surface microstructure and corrosion protection property.This work expands new insights for the wide application of Mg alloys and the research in the field of metal protection.

文摘Microwave absorption materials are prone to degradation in extremely humid and salty environments,and it is still challenging to develop a dense and firm interface to protect microwave absorbers.Herein,a robust FeSiAl@PUA@SiO2(PUA:acrylic polyurethane)gradient hybrid was prepared through plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition(PECVD)to achieve efficient microwave absorption and anti-corrosion properties.The organic/inorganic dual coat of PUA/SiO2 not only facilitated the interface polarization but also effectively reduced the dielectric constant and optimized impedance matching.Owing to the unique hybrid structure,the(PECVD-FeSiAl@PUA)@SiO_(2) exhibited highly efficient microwave absorbing performance in frequency bands covering almost the entire Ku-bands(12-18 GHz)with a minimum reflection loss(RLmin)of−47 dB with a matching thickness of 2.3 mm.The organic/inorganic dual protection effectively shields against the corrosive medium,as the corrosion potential and the polarization resistance increased from−0.167 to−0.047 V and 8,064 to 16,273Ω·cm^(2),respectively.While the corrosion current decreased from 3.04×10^(−6) to 2.16×10^(−6) A/cm^(2).Hence,the plasma-enhanced densification of PUA created a strong bridge to integrate FeSiAl and organic/inorganic components acquiring dual-function of efficient microwave absorption and anticorrosion,which opened a promising platform for potential practical absorbers.

文摘In this study,a novel diethylene triamine penta(methylene phosphonic acid)(DTPMPA)-and graphene oxide(GO)-modified superhydrophobic anodized aluminum(DGSAA)coating was fabricated.The obtained coatings were characterized by scan electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,and Raman analysis.After immersion in the supersaturated CaCO_(3) solution for 240 h,the scaling mass of the DGSAA coating is only 50%of that of the SAA coating.The excellent anti-scaling performance of the DGSAA coating comes from three barriers of the air layer,the DTPMPA:Ca^(2+)chelate,and the lamellar GO,as well as the further active anti-scaling of DTPMPA:Ca^(2+)at the coating–solution interface.DTPMPA and GO at the surface of the DGSAA coating exhibit an insertion structure.In the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurement,the impedance modulus of the DGSAA coating is three orders-of-magnitude higher than that of the anodized aluminum.The synergistic effect of DTPMPA stored in the porous structure of anodized aluminum and the barrier protection of superhydrophobicity and GO contributes to the excellent comprehensive performance of the DGSAA coating.This research provides a new perspective for designing anti-scaling and anti-corrosion superhydrophobic bi-functional coatings.

文摘Marine resources and industry have become one of the most important pillars in economic development all over the world.However,corrosion of materials is always the most serious problem to the infrastructure and equipment served in marine environment.Researchers have found that microbiologically influenced corrosion(MIC)and marine bio-fouling are two main mechanisms of marine corrosions due to the complicated marine environment and marine organisms.This article summarized the latest research progress about these two mechanisms and indicated that both MIC and marine bio-fouling are closely related to the biofilms on material surfaces formed by the marine microorganisms and their metabolites.As a result,to prevent the occurrence of MIC and bio-fouling,it is important to control the microorganisms in biofilms or prevent the adhesion and formation of biofilms.The traditional method of using chemical bactericide or antifoulant faces the problems of pollution and microorganism resistance.This article introduced four research approaches about the new tendency of applying new materials and technologies to cooperate with traditional chemicals to achieve better and longer effects with lower environment pollution through synergistic actions.Finally,some future research tendencies were proposed for whole marine anti-corrosion and anti-fouling areas.

文摘A series of high solid content(30 wt%)epoxy resin(EP)composite coatings reinforced with differently sized cubic boron nitride(CBN)particles were fabricated successfully on 304 L stainless steel.Polydopamine(PDA)was used to improve the dispersibility of CBN particles in EP.The structural and morphological features of the CBN particles and the composite coatings were characterized by Raman spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Moreover,a UMT-3 tribometer and surface profiler were used to investigate the tribological behaviors of the as-prepared composite coatings.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)and Tafel analysis were used to investigate the coatings'anti-corrosion performance.The results demonstrated that the CBN fillers could effectively enhance the tribological and anti-corrosion properties of the EP composite coatings.In addition,when the additive proportion of the microsized(5μm)and nanosized(550 nm)CBN particles was 1:1,the tribological property of the EP composite coatings was optimal for dry sliding,which was attributed to the load carrying capability of the microsized CBN particles and the toughening effect of the nanosized CBN particles.However,when the additive proportion of the microsized and nanosized CBN particles was 2:1,the tribology and corrosion resistance performance were optimal in seawater conditions.We ascribed this to the load-carrying capacity of the microparticles,which played a more important role under the seawater lubrication condition,and the more compact structure,which improved the electrolyte barrier ability for the composite coatings.

文摘In this article,graphene oxide(GO)and benzotriazole-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles(BTA/MSNs)are combined on micro scale through the in situ polymerization of polydopamine(PDA),preparing a selfhealing bi-functional GO(fGO)used as nano-fillers for anti-corrosion enhancement of waterborne epoxy(WEP)coatings.Scanning electronic microscopy(SEM)images show that the BTA/MSNs are uniformly distributed on the surface of high aspect ratio GO nanosheets to endow GO nanocontainer characteristics.UV-vis profiles demonstrate that fGO has p H-controlled release function.Modulus at lowest frequency is generally used for comparing the corrosion resistance of organic coatings.Modulus at lowest frequency(1.42×10^(5)Ωcm^(2))after 30 days immersion in 3.5 wt.%Na Cl solution revealed 2 orders of magnitude higher that of blank WEP(1.17×10^(7)Ωcm^(2)).With artificial cracks on its coatings,fGO/WEP had no obvious rust compared with blank WEP after 240 h of immersion.We anticipate that self-healing and physical barrier bi-functional nanocontainers improve the traditional anticorrosion coating efficiency with better,longer-lasting performance for shipping,oil drilling or bridge maintenance.

文摘In this work,lithium(Li)-aluminum(Al)layered double hydroxide(LDH)films modified by 4-amino-2-((hydrazine methylene)amino)-4-oxobutanoic acid(denoted as AOA acid)and/or 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane were prepared on 6N01 Al alloy by a facile,in-situ growth method with enhanced hydrophobicity,anti-biofouling and anti-corrosion performance.The preparation is low energy consumptive and environment friendly,relying on self-assembly at ambient temperature.The structure,molecular weight and functional groups of the synthesized AOA acid were characterized by NMR spectrometer,ESI-MS spectrometer and Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR)spectroscopy.And the compositions,structure and morphology of the films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR)spectroscopy,glancing-angle X-ray diffraction(GA-XRD),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM)and energy-dispersive x-ray spectrum(EDS).Water contact angle measurements(CA)and atomic force microscopy(AFM)characterization show that the films possess a micro/nanostructure with an improved hydrophobicity.Immersion test,neutral salt tests(NSS)and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)conducted in 3.5 wt.%NaCl solutions demonstrate the improved corrosion resistance of the films over bare Al alloy.Meanwhile,the films also possess an excellent anti-bacterial property toEscherichia coli,Bacillus subtilis and sulfate-reducing bacteria.
