Abstract

A coating with excellent tribological behavior and corrosion durability was synthesized by chemical/electrochemical method from the composition of polyaniline (PANI), polyaminophenol (PAP), polyvinylalcohol (PVA), and reinforced with PANI/PAP/Gabapentin-functionalized Graphene nanoplates. Acrylic (AC) covered the composite coating as a top layer. According to the evaluations, G@PANI/PAP/GP-reinforced coating has 5 times more corrosion resistance than unreinforced one (on the 1st and 30th days). Not only has the corrosion resistance of PANI/PVA/PAP contained G@PANI/PAP/GP not decreased over time, but it has increased by ∼20 %. The defect density of passive film under (PANI/PVA/PAP)/Acrylic coating containing G@PANI/PAP/GP is 10 times less than that of the (PANI/PVA/PAP)/Acrylic coating. G@PANI/PAP/GP decreased the friction coefficient and wear rate of PANI composite coating over time by ∼47 % and 84 %. Furthermore, the simultaneous presence of graphene and gabapentin has increased the lubrication (Rsk = -0.24 µm) and adhesion (13 %) of the coating. It is how a polyaniline-based composite coating with three mechanisms of passivation, corrosion barrier, and inhibition protects the 304 SS over time.
