An epoxy paint containing PEDOT/PSS was described herein. The corrosion behavior of steel samples coated with the paint was investigated in seawater. For this purpose, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was utilized and surface morphology of coatings after corrosion was observed using scanning electron microscope. It was found that the addition of small PEDOT/PSS to the epoxy resin increased its corrosion protection efficiency. Meanwhile, the possible mechanism was discussed.

Pada percobaan ini, telah dipelajari pengaruh laju putar terhadap laju korosi baja karbon API 5LX65 yang direndam selama 24 jam dalam larutan NaCl 3,5% + 500 mg/L H2S menggunakan metode EIS (Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) pada suhu 50oC dan pH 4 dengan variasi laju putar 50 rpm, 150 rpm, dan 250 rpm. Hasil percobaan memperlihatkan pergeseran dan penyempitan kurva setengah lingkaran impedansi imaginer terhadap impedansi real, dengan meningkatnya laju putar dari 50 rpm sampai dengan 250 rpm. Hal ini mengindikasikan bahwa aktifitas pelarutan baja meningkat dengan percepatan laju putar. Nilai Cdl meningkat dengan meningkatnya laju putar. Nilai tahanan polarisasi (Rp) semakin menurun dengan meningkatnya laju putar, sementara nilai tahanan larutan (Rs) relatif tidak berubah. Potensial korosi pada laju putar 50 rpm, 150 rpm dan 250 rpm stabil  pada -517 mV hingga -508 mV terhadap Ag/AgCl. Gabungan pengamatan Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) dan X-Ray Diffractomer (XRD) menunjukkan terbentuknya lapisan produk korosi. Hasil analisis XRD spesimen uji yang dikorosikan pada suhu 50oC selama 24 jam menunjukkan bahwa lapisan produk korosi mengandung besi sulfida (FeS). Morfologi permukaan spesimen ini memperlihatkan adanya korosi sumuran.Kata kunci: laju putar, korosi, baja karbon, EIS, H2S

In this work, microporous chitosan-succinonitrile membranes were prepared by phase separation method. The membranes were characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscope. It was found that the addition of succinonitrile increased the pore size, which in turn increased the ionic conductivity of the chitosan-succinonitrile membrane.

The protection of mild steel by modified epoxy coating containing colophony microencapsulated corrosion inhibitors was investigated in this study. The corrosion behavior of these epoxy coatings containing colophony microcapsules was studied by electrochemical analysis using cyclic potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The microcapsule coating showed decreased corrosion current densities of 2.75 × 10−8 and 3.21 × 10−8 A/cm2 along with corrosion potential values of 0.349 and 0.392 VSCE for simulated concrete pore solution and deionized water with 3.5 wt.% NaCl, respectively, indicating improved corrosion protection in both alkaline and neutral pH. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis also showed charge transfer resistance values over one order of magnitude higher than the control sample, corroborating the electrochemical corrosion potential and current density testing results. Overall, the use of colophony microcapsules showed improved corrosion protection in simulated concrete pore solution and DI water solutions containing chloride ions.

In this work the assessment of the corrosion performances in saliva solution of NdFeB magnets coated with silane layers was studied for its application in orthodontic brackets. The silane film, deposited by dip coating technique, has been prepared with varying dipping steps, with the purpose to identify the number of layers able to achieve an optimal protective action. Corrosion protection performance, during immersion in Fusayama synthetic saliva solution, was evaluated by means electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The silane coatings evidenced good barrier properties resulting in an improvement of the anti-corrosion performances of the magnets. Better results were observed for samples with at least 15 layers of silane, that evidenced still acceptable protective action after three days of immersion in a Fusayama synthetic saliva solution.

AbstractMethylcarbazole (MCz) and its nanocomposites with Montmorillonite nanoclay and Zn nanoparticles were chemically synthesized on a stainless steel (SS304) electrode. The modified electrode was characterized by optical microscope, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated transmission reflectance (FTIR-ATR), four-point probe, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) analysis. The synthesized stainless steel/poly(methylcarbazole) (SS/P(MCz)), stainless steel/poly(methylcarbazole)/nanoclay (SS/P(MCz)/nanoclay), and stainless steel/poly(methylcarbazole)/nanoZn (SS/P(MCz)/nanoZn) were studied by potentiodynamic polarization curves. The protective behavior of these coatings in 3.5% NaCl as the corrosion medium was investigated using Tafel polarization curves, as well as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The corrosion protection parameters were also supported by EIS and an equivalent circuit model of Rs(Qc(Rc(QpRct))). The corrosion current of the SS/P(MCz)/nanoclay samples was found to be much lower (icorr=0.010 μA×cm-2) than that of SS/P(MCz)/nanoZn (icorr=0.031 μA×cm-2) and pure SS/P(MCz) samples. These results reveal that chemically synthesized SS/P(MCz), SS/P(MCz)/nanoclay, and SS/P(MCz)/nanoZn nanocomposite film coating have high corrosion protection efficiency (PE=99.56%, 99.89%, and 99.67%, respectively). Thus, based on the study findings, we posit that nanoclay and Zn nanoparticles possess favorable barrier properties, which can be employed in order to achieve improvements in chemical corrosion protection through P(MCz) coating.
