Abstract
The proposed work aims to develop and study sol–gel derived anticorrosion films for aluminium. To further improve performance of these films, organic corrosion inhibitors were incorporated into the films. The organic–inorganic hybrid films with and without corrosion inhibitors were deposited on an aluminium substrate by dip coating. The films were characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), DC polarisation techniques, and neutral salt spray test to evaluate their anticorrosion properties. This study shows that very low and very high MBT concentrations deteriorate the corrosion performance of coatings, and consequently, there is an optimum concentration of MBT. EIS results revealed a higher corrosion inhibitive activity of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) compared to that of 2-amino-5-methylthiazole and 1,2,3 benzotriazole.
