Abstract
A double-layer structure coating combining the advantages of GO shielding and the conductivity of MWCNTs was proposed. The sol–gel method was used to prepare SiO2-GO and SiO2-MWCNTs hybrid materials and 1wt% zinc silicate (ZS) double-layer structure composite coating was prepared. Mechanical strength and electrochemistry were tested to compare the effects of added phase and structure on the properties of the coating. The results showed that among the single-layer coatings, the zinc silicate coating with SiO2-GO had the best surface properties, the hardness of the coating reached 6H, the impact strength reached 75 300 g·cm, the SiO2-GO/ZS coating had hydrophobic properties, and the contact angle reached 92°. MWCNTs/ZS coating had very high interfacial bonding strength, and the average adhesion was 8.02 MPa, which was about 3 times higher than that of ZS coating. In terms of corrosion resistance, the double-layer structural coating of MWCNTs/ZS undercoat and SiO2-GO/ZS topcoat had the minimum corrosion current density and maximum impedance, which were 1.732 μA/cm2 and 23KΩ/cm2 respectively and could still maintain excellent cathodic protection under long-term immersion.
