Abstract
A unique approach for the synthesis of an iron oxide-blended sodium zinc molybdate nanocontainer using an ultrasound-assisted method and its application for 2 K epoxy polyamide nanocomposite coatings has been presented. Sodium zinc molybdate blended with iron oxide was used as the core of the nanocontainer and layer-by-layer assembly of oppositely charged species of polyelectrolyte and inhibitor was made over this core of nanoparticles. The release of imidazole from iron oxide-blended sodium zinc molybdate nanocontainer has been quantitatively evaluated in water at different pH. It has been observed that imidazole plays a major role in the release profile of polyelectrolyte-modified nanocontainer and deciding the corrosion inhibition characteristics. Addition of 4 wt% nanocontainer in coatings results in shifting of corrosion potential (Ecorr) value towards positive direction. The maximum concentration of imidazole released at the end of 1 h was found to be 0.545 mg L−1/g of nanocontainer at pH of 10. The results of corrosion rate analysis, Tafel plots and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies of an iron oxide-blended sodium zinc molybdate nanocontainer-based coatings indicated better inhibition performance compared with neat coating.
