The following study is conducted to improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy. First, ZnAl layered double hydroxide (ZnAl LDH) film was prepared on AZ61 magnesium alloy by using hydrothermal method. Then, as-prepared ZnAl LDH was put into 2-methylimidazole (2-mIm) solution to synthetize ZIF-8 film (ZIF-8/LDH). Finally, ZIF-8/LDH film synthesized ZIF-8-DMBIM film (ZIF-8-DMBIM/LDHs) via a shell-ligand-exchange-reaction in the methanol solution containing 5, 6-dimethylbenzimidazole (DMBIM). The surface morphology, structure, and composition of the composite film were observed and determined by scanning electronic microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The wettability of composite film was measured by using a water contact angle meter, and the corrosion resistance of the composite film was estimated by the polarization curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. Results show that the prepared ZIF-8-DMBIM/LDH composite film has a dense hexagonal plate morphology with a two-layer structure and a thickness of 3.5 μm. Compared with ZnAl LDH and ZIF-8/LDH films, ZIF-8-DMBIM/LDH composite film has a high contact angle (115.7°), low corrosion current density, and high corrosion potential and polarization resistance due to its near-smooth surface, dense two-layer structure, and hydrophobic characters.

When aluminum alloy is present in a Cl−-rich environment, the surface oxide film is easily damaged, resulting in faster dissolution of the substrate. The application of graphene-modified anticorrosion coating can effectively prevent the occurrence of corrosion. In this study, to explore the corrosion resistance of graphene-modified anticorrosion coating on the surface of aluminum alloy, we prepared graphene-modified anticorrosion coating on the surface of aluminum alloy and investigated the corrosion resistance mechanism. Epoxy resin primer and polyurethane top coat were modified by predispersed reduced graphene oxide (rGO). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Raman spectrum were used to investigate the microstructure of graphene-modified anticorrosion coating, and it was found that the addition of rGO could effectively improve the porosity defect of epoxy resin primer. Electrochemical workstation was used to quickly characterize the corrosion resistance of graphene-modified anticorrosion coating, and the change of the electrochemical curve during soaking in 3.5% NaCl was investigated every 5 hours. It was found that the application of rGO to modify the anticorrosion coating could improve the corrosion resistance of the anticorrosion coating, and as the soaking time increased, the corrosion resistance of graphene-modified anticorrosion coating changed regularly. The study results indicated that when the content of rGO was 0.4%, the porosity of epoxy coating decreased from 1.54% to 0.33%, the porosity dropped by an order of magnitude, and the self-corrosion voltage was relatively positive (-0.72434 V). The self-corrosion current density was the lowest (), and at the low frequency, the impedance modulus was the highest (103). After the equivalent circuit fitting, the dispersion index was relatively high, the dispersion effect was relatively weak, and the corrosion resistance of the coating was improved. For graphene-modified anticorrosion coating, in the early stage of corrosion protection, the existence of pores and other defects in the coating might increase the dispersion effect, resulting in greatly decreased corrosion resistance of the coating. In the middle stage of corrosion protection, the pores in the coating would be completely filled by corrosive ions, resulting in a weakened dispersion effect. Therefore, the decrease in the corrosion resistance of the coating was slowed down and became stable.

Improving the dispersibility and compatibility of nanomaterials in water-borne epoxy resins is an important means to improve the protection ability and corrosion resistance of coatings. In this study, glycine-functionalized Ti3C2Tx (GT) was used to prepare an epoxy composite coating. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction showed that glycine was successfully modified. The scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy results showed that the aggregation of Ti3C2Tx was alleviated. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy test results show that, after 60 days of immersion, GT coating still shows the best protection performance, and the composite coating |Z|f = 0.01 Hz is 3 orders of magnitude higher than that of the pure epoxy coating. This is mainly because, after adding glycine, the −COOH group on the surface of glycine binds to the −OH group on the surface of Ti3C2Tx, improving the aggregation of Ti3C2Tx itself. At the same time, the −NH group of glycine can also participate in the curing reaction of epoxy resin to strengthen the bonding strength between the coating and the metal. The good dispersion of GT in epoxy resin makes it fill the pores and holes left by epoxy resin curing and strengthen the corrosion resistance. The easy availability and green properties of glycine provide a simple and environmentally friendly method for the modification of Ti3C2Tx.

MgAl 2 O 4 MgAlON materials as potential candidate sidewalls were prepared by using AlN , MgO , Al 2 O 3 , and nanosized MgAl 2 O 4 powder as starting materials. The reaction sintering of the MgAl 2 O 4 MgAlON materials was investigated by means of X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. All the specimens were corroded in a Na 3 AlF 6 AlF 3 CaF 2 Al 2 O 3 bath to assess the electrolyte corrosion resistance . The results show that reaction sintering occurs in the MgAl 2 O 4 MgO Al 2 O 3 AlN system at 1830 °C and 5 MPa in flowing nitrogen for 5 h. The MgAl 2 O 4 MgAlON specimens are obtained and have high bulk density. The flexural strength increases from 202 ± 6 MPa to 248 ± 8 MPa and the Vickers hardness increases from 9.5 ± 0.2 GPa to 12.6 ± 0.4 GPa with increasing MgAlON content from 10 wt% to 40 wt%. The MgAl 2 O 4 MgAlON materials exhibit a good corrosion resistance to the Na 3 AlF 6 AlF 3 CaF 2 Al 2 O 3 bath owing to their high-density and the formation of the composite spinel in the specimens. The corrosion mechanisms of MgAl 2 O 4 MgAlON composites in molten electrolyte are mainly proposed by the dissolution of MgAl 2 O 4 and the diffusion of fluoride. Corrosion kinetic obeys a nearly parabolic law and the corrosion rate decreases with increasing MgAlON content.

Modification of MXene is usually necessary for their application in corrosion resistant coatings. Nevertheless, the influence of the grafting degree of modifier is not concerned in the past. In this work, modified Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets (G-Ti 3 C 2 ) with different grafting degree of (3-glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (GPS) were obtained by changing GPS dosage, and further incorporated into waterborne epoxy resin coatings (WEP). GPS modification led to deteriorated dispersion in water but improved dispersion stability of Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets in waterborne epoxy resin at appropriate GPS-grafting degree presumably due to the interaction between the liquid epoxy resin droplet and G-Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets. The GPS grafting degree was also critical to get the corrosion resistant nanocomposite coatings . The best corrosion resistance, i.e., with impedance modulus four orders of magnitude higher than that of pure WEP after 30 days' immersion in salt solution as well as the lightest corrosion in salt spray test, was achieved using the Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets modified at the GPS-to-Ti 3 C 2 mass ratio of 30:1. Better dispersion of G-Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets and stronger interaction between epoxy resin matrix and G-Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets should be responsible for the excellent corrosion resistance of the coatings at optimum GPS grafting degree.

Coarse intermetallic compounds present in aluminum (Al) alloys significantly increase their susceptibility to localized corrosion, creating a trade-off between strength and corrosion resistance. In this study, Al−Ni alloys with a homogeneous microstructure were obtained through electrodeposition using imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs). Theoretical calculations and spectral analyses revealed that Ni(II) existed as an octahedral coordination complex, [Ni(Al 2 Cl 7 ) 4 ] 2 − , in Lewis-acidic ILs. This complex interacted with the Al 2 Cl 7 − species, facilitating the co-deposition of Al and Ni into supersaturated solid solutions Al(Ni). These deposits exhibited superior hardness compared to as-cast counterparts, reaching 3.9 GPa for Al(Ni) with 4.1 at% Ni, while also demonstrating enhanced corrosion resistance over pure Al. This simultaneous improvement in hardness and corrosion resistance is attributed to the homogeneous structure and extended Ni solubility. Consequently, the electrodeposition of Al(Ni) supersaturated solid solutions presents a promising approach to optimizing strength and corrosion resistance.

To improve the tribological performance and corrosion resistance of engine bearings exposed to contaminated lubricating oil , polymer coatings containing NdCl 3 at concentrations of 3.45 wt%, 5.17 wt%, and 6.89 wt% were developed, respectively. These coatings were applied to the surfaces of copper and aluminum alloys using a liquid spraying technique, aiming to assess their corrosion and wear resistance. Electrochemical experiments showed that the coating with a 3.45 wt% NdCl 3 concentration exhibited superior corrosion resistance , as evidenced by the highest self-corrosion potential and polarization resistance. Furthermore, friction tests on the corroded samples revealed that the 3.45 wt% NdCl 3 coating also demonstrated the lowest coefficients of friction and wear rates. This is due to the addition of an appropriate amount of NdCl 3 , which densifies the internal structure of the coating and improves the mechanical properties of the coating, thereby significantly improving its corrosion and wear resistance.

Synergistic effect of rare earth salts conversion coating with phytic acid conversion coating was studied. Rare-earth salts were used as post-treatment to modify the phytic acid coated steel. The corrosion resistance properties of different coatings was investigated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. The corrosion resistance of phytic acid coated steel on steel was further enhanced with cerium nitrate post-treatment. The corrosion rate of phytic acid coated steel was seriously impaired by cerium nitrate post-treatment. But scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images indicated that there are also some micro-cracks on the coating surface when phytic acid coated steel was post-treated with cerium nitrate conversion bath. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results demonstrated that the phytic acid could bind to the steel surface through the formation of -P-O-Fe and the cerium salts on the steel surface existed in the forms of both Ce 3+ and Ce 4+ .

Trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) was added into a titanium (Ti)-based solution in this study to prepare Ti/Cr(III) conversion coatings on the aluminium (Al) foil for lithium-ion battery package. Their surface morphology and chemical composition were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The corrosion resistance and the adhesive strength between Al foil and hot melt adhesive (modified polypropylene film) were determined. The results reveal that the Ti/Cr(III) conversion coating is mainly composed of Al2O3, TiO2, Cr(OH)3 and Cr2O3, and possesses the best anticorrosive performance with a corrosion current density of 1.05 µA cm−2, which is one order of magnitude lower than pure Al foil. The adhesive strength between Ti/Cr(III)-treated Al foil and the adhesive is 14.3 N/15 mm with an increase of 250% compared with the pure Al foil, which meets the industry standard (12 N/15 mm).

A hydrophobic composite coating was obtained on the carbon steel surface through electrochemical deposition of a copper coating in a sulfate solution and chemical vapor deposition of a carbon fiber film. It alleviated the serious corrosion problem of carbon steel on the evaporator of hot film coupled seawater desalination system in harsh marine environment. The morphologies and compositions of the coatings were analyzed, revealing the influence of electrodeposition time on their performance. The micro-nano copper structure formed by electrodeposition significantly improved the deposition effect of carbon layer. Additionally, experiments with seawater solution contact angle tests indicated that electrodeposition transformed the surface properties from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, effectively inhibiting the diffusion of corrosive medium into the interior of the substrate. Through polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and other analyses, it was demonstrated that the hydrophobic coating significantly improves the corrosion resistance of carbon steel substrates in seawater environments, surpassing the performance of traditional duplex steel.

To enhance the anticorrosion properties of molybdenum metal in liquid zinc, this study successfully fabricated TiB2coatings on molybdenum substrates via the molten salt electrophoretic deposition technique and investigated their corrosion resistance in molten zinc. Initially, TiB2nanoparticles with a size ranging from 50 to 150 nm were synthesized using the borothermal reduction method in a molten NaF-AlF3bath at 1238 K. Subsequently, the electrophoretic deposition experiment was conducted under a cell voltage of 1.2 V (i.e., 0.6 V/cm) for a duration of 1 h in the melt containing TiB2nanoparticles, resulting in a uniform, continuous, and compact TiB2coating (35 μm thick) on the molybdenum substrate. Moreover, the corrosion resistance of the TiB2-coated molybdenum metal to molten zinc was tested through continuous immersion. After 120 h of immersion, the TiB2coating showed no signs of cracking or peeling off, successfully protecting the molybdenum metal substrate from corrosion by molten zinc. The results confirm that the molten salt electrophoretic deposition technique can be used to prepare TiB2coatings with good resistance to molten zinc corrosion on molybdenum metal.

The novel pyridine oxime-based complexing agents 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde oxime, 2-acetylpyridine ketoxime and 2-pyridine amidoxime were synthesized for alkaline Zn-Ni alloy electrodeposition, outperforming conventional citrate/TEPA systems in corrosion resistance and microstructural control. The N,O-bidentate chelation mechanism governs metal ion reduction kinetics via diffusion-limited pathways, enabling γ-phase Ni5Zn21intermetallic formation and nanocrystalline refinement. Electrochemical and microstructural analyses demonstrate suppressed random nucleation and hydrogen evolution side reactions, leading to enhanced charge transfer resistance and reduced corrosion current density. Notably, 2-pyridine amidoxime achieves ultrasmooth surfaces through defect-free nanocluster growth, while 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde oxime maximizes γ-phase crystallinity. The synergy between grain boundary density and surface integrity establishes a dual protection mechanism combining barrier layer formation and active dissolution suppression. This work advances microstructure engineering via coordination chemistry, offering a breakthrough over traditional zincate electroplating for high-performance anti-corrosion coatings.
