Abstract
En 中文
In this study, dopamine (DA) was covalently grafted onto graphene oxide (GO) to form a functionalized nano-filler, onto which calcium ions were subsequently coordinated, yielding GO-PDA-Ca nanocomposites for epoxy coating applications. This work was motivated by the need to mitigate corrosion and performance loss of conventional epoxy coatings after microdamage in aggressive environments. The experimental results demonstrated that the impedance value of the GO-PDA-Ca/EP composite coating reached its peak at 4.92 & times; 107 Omega cm2 after 2 h of immersion. Even after 42 days of immersion, it still retained a relatively high impedance value of 3.54 & times; 107 Omega cm2, which was three orders of magnitude higher in comparison to that of the pure EP coating. The self-healing properties of the coating were examined. Upon damage, the structure was effectively repaired via dynamic coordination between catechol groups in PDA and Ca2+. SEM images confirmed that the artificial defect was successfully repaired. This coating was promising for extending service life and improving the safety of metal components in corrosive environments, such as in the oil and gas industry.
