Chromium pre-treatments of metal have been replaced by silane pre-treatments as more environmental friendly option. Nanoparticles can be added in the silane sol-gel network have been reported to improve corrosion resistance. In this work, the electrochemical corrosion resistance of low carbon steel coated with hybrid organic-inorganic sol-gel film filled with nanoparticles was evaluated. The sol-gel films have been synthesized from 3-glycidoxy-propyl-trimethoxy-silane (3-GPTMS) and tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate (TEOS) precursors. These films have been impregnated with 300 ppm of silica or alumina nanoparticles. The electrochemical behavior of the coated steel was evaluated by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Equivalent circuit modeling, used for quantifying the EIS measurements showed that sol-gel films containing silica nanoparticles improved the barrier properties of the silane coating. The silica nanoparticle-containing films showed highest initial pore resistance over the five days of immersion in 0.05M NaCl.

This article, the preparation and corrosion protection studies of a series of electroactive epoxy titanium dioxide (EET) hybrid materials containing conjugated segments of electroactive amino-capped aniline trimer (ACAT) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles of ~100 nm in diameter was first presented. It should be noted that EET at higher concentration of TiO2 was found to reveal better corrosion protection effect as compared to neat electroactive epoxy coating on cold-rolled steel (CRS) electrode based on electrochemical corrosion measurements in 3.5 wt% NaCl electrolyte. Effective enhancement of corrosion protection of EET coatings could be interpreted by electroactive epoxy as a densely physical barrier coating and the redox catalytic capabilities of ACAT units existed in EET may induce the formation of passive metal oxide layers on CRS electrode. Further the well-dispersed TiO2 nanoparticles in EET matrix could act as effective hinder to enhance the oxygen barrier property of EET.
