Abstract

Polythiophene (PTP) was functionalized on rGO nanosheets by in situ polymerization process, and SMA was decorated on another rGO by simple ultrasonic method. Then, chemical bonding between anhydride of PSMA and amidogen of PTP fabricated the novel rGO/PSMA-PTP/rGO (GSPG) composite. The rare earth ions (Re3+ = La3+, Ce3+ and Pr3+) were doped into the GSPG composite by physical mixing to prepare the aimed Re-GSPG composite. The structure of the composite was analyzed using a combination of infrared spectroscopy, UV–visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermos gravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron morphology. The corrosion protection of the functional composite was investigated by electrochemical tests. A significant long-term corrosion protection of GSPG and Re-GSPG composite coating on carbon steel was observed. GSPG and Re-GSPG composites presented the homogeneous dispersion of the polymer coatings and the enhanced interfacial compatibility between the nanosheets and resin matrix, which formed longer corrosion diffusion pathways on organic coating to improve anti-corrosion performance.
