Abstract

The limited dispersibility and lack of active anti-corrosion properties of graphene oxide (GO) have hindered its application in corrosion resistance. In this study, we graft the corrosion inhibitor benzotriazole (BTA) on the surface of GO to achieve pH response release, providing active corrosion protection for epoxy modified polyurethane (EP-PU) coating. An environmentally friendly composite material with a sandwich-like structure was synthesized by in-situ polymerization of pyrrole to improve GO dispersion and prevent rapid release of BTA. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) shows that adding 0.15% GBP enhances the coating's anti-corrosion performance. The dual functions of passive and active corrosion enable the GBP/EP-PU coating to provide long-term corrosion protection for metal substrates.
