Abstract
ABSTRACTThe poly(carbazole-co-pyrrole) copolymer was synthesized on TiO2 sol–gel precoated 304 stainless steel (TiO2) by cyclic voltammetry in tetrabutylammonium perchlorate containing acetonitrile solution. The synthesized coating was characterized by attenuated total reflectance–Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and solid-state conductivity measurements. Corrosion protection behavior of the TiO2/poly(carbazole-co-pyrrole)-coated steel was evaluated by open circuit potential–time curves, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods. Corrosion test results showed that TiO2/poly(carbazole-co-pyrrole) composite film enhanced corrosion resistance of stainless steel up to 50 days of immersion in 0.1M HCl corrosive medium.
