Improved Antifouling and Anticorrosion Performance of CeO2 Nanocoating Prepared by Mussel-Inspired Chemistry
Biofouling, the accumulation of organisms on submerged surfaces, significantly impairs vessel performance and hinders maritime industry development. The development of effective coatings has become an efficient solution to this problem. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2NPs) were synthesized on dopamine-modified 5083 aluminum alloy (Al) surfaces by mussel-inspired chemistry. The CeO2NPs can be fully exposed to the coating surface using this method, and CeO2 nanocoating exhibited haloperoxidase-like activity. CeO2 nanocoatings have an excellent ability to inhibit the attachment of P. tricornutum, E. coli, and Bacillussp., and their numbers were reduced by 96.03%, 94.41%, and 88.44%, respectively. The outstanding antiadhesion capability of the coating was attributed to its potent antibacterial properties and quorum quenching effect. Furthermore, the CeO2 nanocoating demonstrated outstanding corrosion resistance, with an impedance modulus 46.9 times higher than that of the Al sample. This approach presents a sustainable and environmentally friendly surface modification model for enhancing the performance of antifouling and anticorrosion in aluminum materials.
