Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely used as “smart” containers in the field of metal corrosion protection, and have broad industrial prospects. It is environmentally friendly and feasible to use aliphatic carboxylates and corresponding acids as substitutes for harmful corrosion inhibitors. However, previous studies rarely involved comparing the anti-corrosion mechanisms of different aliphatic acids modified on the LDH surface, and the durability of the prepared coatings also needs to be improved. In this work, MgAl-LDH laminates were grown in situ on AZ31 substrates by a hydrothermal method, and then modified by sodium laurate (SL) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS). Due to the physical barrier effect of the LDH layers, the spatial repulsion effect of the air film and the ion exchange reactions in the interlayer galleries, the functional coatings prepared exhibit smart and superior anti-corrosion performance on the magnesium substrates in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. Compared with LDH-SDBS-8 coating, the obtained superhydrophobic LDH-SL-8 coating shows more excellent long-term corrosion protection owing to the stronger intercalation capacity.
