Abstract
In order to inhibit the metallic corrosion in the oil pipelines,the protection method with composite coating of unsaturated polyester and reinforced by Caolin at weight percentage (20%) was studied. Where, the work samples were classified into two groups according to internal composite coatings layers for all groups of these samples. The first group is nitrocellulose coating reinforced by nano and micro powder of Mgo, the second group is sodium silicate coating reinforced by nano powder of Mgo. The following weight percentages (0%, 1%, 3% and 5%) were adopted as reinforcement ratios for nano powders, as well as the weight percentages (0%, 3%, 5% and 7%) as reinforcement ratios for micro powders Tribology properties and Electrochemical Corrosion Resistance by Polarization method (Tafel) and Adhesion Strength were studied. The results showed an improvement in the corrosion resistance of protected steel by coatings compare with uncoated steel, as well as improvement in mechanical properties and adhesion strength of composite coatings.
