Abstract

AbstractPlasma polymerized (pp) layers are promising owing to their ease of deposition. Moreover, incorporation of suitable nanoparticles into a polymer matrix can provide improved properties, for instance an increased corrosion resistance, to the final nanocomposite layer. The efficiency of such an incorporation is highly dependent of the layer structure in general, and more particularly of nanoparticles dispersion in the coating. The synthesis of a hybrid coating for anticorrosion purpose is described. Deposition of a plasma polymerized hexamethyldisiloxane (ppHMDSO) coating matrix with aluminum–cerium oxide nanoparticles incorporation is performed by means of an atmospheric pressure plasma reactor in a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) configuration. Admixture of ethanol within hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) is carried out in order to improve homogeneity and properties of the coating.
