Abstract

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown great potential in gas storage and separation, energy storage and conversion, vapor sensing, and catalysis. Nevertheless, rare attention has been paid to their anticorrosion performances. At present, substantial hydrophobic and water stable MOFs (like ZIF-8), which are potentially favorable for their applications in anticorrosion industry, have been successfully designed and prepared. In this study, a facile ligand-assisted conversion strategy was employed to fully convert ZnAl-CO3 layered double hydroxide (LDH) precursor buffer layers to well intergrown ZIF-8 coatings. DC Polarization tests indicated that prepared ZIF-8 coatings showed the corrosive current 4 orders of magnitude lower than that of bare Al substrates, demonstrating that MOF materials were superb candidates for high-performance anticorrosion coatings.
