Abstract
In recent years, the advancement of nanomaterials has demonstrated immense promise in enhancing the corrosion resistance of protective coatings. We have developed a nanomaterial that exhibits exceptional performance in corrosion inhibition encapsulation and controllable release. A novel zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) material was synthesized on graphene oxide (GO) substrate via in-situ growth approach, serving as an efficient carrier for the corrosion inhibitor benzotriazole (BTA). Building upon this, polyethyleneimine (PEI) was introduced to encapsulate ZIF-67/GO, thereby modulating the release of corrosion inhibitors. Subsequently, the composite filler (ZIF-67/GO@BTA/PEI) was incorporated into the WEP coating at mass ratios of 0.1 %, 0.2 %, and 0.3 %, respectively. In a 3.5 wt% NaCl solution, a 240 h immersion period revealed that the composite coating specimen with ZIF-67/GO@BTA/PEI exhibited consistently superior corrosion resistance, retaining a high modulus of low-frequency impedance. At an addition level of 0.2 wt%, the value of the low-frequency impedance modulus (|Z|0.01 Hz) hit 5.81 × 109 Ω·cm2. By harnessing the synergistic effects of active sustained release and a passive lamellar barrier mechanism, the waterborne epoxy resin (WEP) coating was endowed with superior resistance and highly effective corrosion protection. The composite coating sample exhibits significant potential for practical application.
