Abstract
Nanohybrid films containing multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were successfully coated on 304-stainless steel (304ss) for anti-corrosion use. The nanocompositewas made by a self-assembly of poly (dopamine), wrapped with MWCNTs (CNT@PDA) through a mussel inspired method. In order to enhance the corrosion protection, an inner layer of L-cysteine, an adhesive amino acid to 304ss surface through thiol (-SH) functional group were constructed through a dip-coating process. Potentiodynamic polarization measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy revealed that the double nano-layer could act as a noble anticorrosive coating in 3.5% NaCl, which was assigned to the hydrophobicity, robustness, and dense double layer coating.
