Abstract

The current work demonstrates a study on the improved corrosion protection efficiency of a defect-free sol-gel hybrid coating consisting of cerium oxide nanofibers vis-à-vis sol-gel coating containing commercial nanosize ceria particles as corrosion inhibitors. The less researched organically modified silica-alumina (Si-Al) hybrid sol-gel coating containing cerium oxide nanofibers and commercial ceria are synthesized from 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane and aluminum-tri-sec-butoxide. The sol-gel matrix containing cerium oxide nanofibers exhibiting Ce mainly in +3 oxidation state exhibits improved corrosion resistance as corroborated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The corrosion property of this sol-gel coating commensurates well with the conventional chromate conversion coating (CCC) as evidenced by the neutral salt spray test. The developed coating exhibits good compatibility with the top primer layer and thus ascertains that the developed Si-Al based sol-gel coating containing cerium oxide nanofibers is a potent alternative to conventional CCC.
