Abstract
Abstract The use of chicken feather short fiber (CFF) as filler for polymer offers an ecofriendly method for the development of composites and coatings. In the present study, CFF filled epoxy coating has been developed to protect carbon steel from corrosion. The morphology of the coating surfaces was investigated using optical microscopy (OM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The surface properties such as wettability and surface roughness were determined. The corrosion studies on the coatings were evaluated using an accelerated salt immersion test. This green approach for the development of epoxy/CFF coating offers protection of metal parts used in many modern industries from the corrosive environment, improve the performance and ensure safety.
