Abstract
The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of an organic coating based on epoxy resin applied to the surface of galvanized steel that was pre-treated with the hybrid silane film (TEOS + GPTMS) incorporated with garlic peel powder (Allium sativum L.). Corrosion resistance was evaluated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization in NaCl 3.5 wt %. The cross-section SEM images revealed the adhesion of the substrate/coating and silane/epoxy interfaces. Test results indicated that the film modified with the natural inhibitor improved anticorrosive properties compared to the film without silane or natural green inhibitors. It can be concluded in EIS measurements that the complete pretrearment applied to grinded exhibits after 90 days of immersion the highest impedance modulus in the low-frequency region (|Z|0.01Hz = 4.18 × 109 Ω cm2). Similarly, the results after the immersion of pull-off adhesion tests was impaired when complete pretreatment was not used (0.15 MPa), which is a positive result for the future application of coatings with complete pretreatment based on this silane + natural corrosion inhibitor approach (0.60 MPa).
