Advanced environmentally friendly anticorrosive materials prepared from water-based polyacrylate/Na+-MMT clay nanocomposite latexes

Effects of organo‐clay modifier on physical–mechanical properties of butyl‐based rubber nano‐composites

“…The dispersion of such layered silicates at the level of a few nanometers induces a significant improvement in mechanical properties, flame resistance and barrier properties, compared with virgin polymer or conventional micro and macro‐composites 1–4. Other improved properties make some potential applications of polymer‐clay nano‐composites in anticorrosion coating,5, 6 electrorheologically sensitive fluids,7, 8 and biodegradable materials 2. In addition, these improvements may be obtained with low clay loading (typically 3–5%) which makes the final part lighter in weight.…”

Polymer/layered silicate nanocomposite anticorrosive coatings

“…Effect of MMT clay in the PLS nanocomposite coatings on the corrosion protection was usually performed at room temperature based on the reports of previous published literatures [139][140][141][142][143][145][146][147][148][150][151][152][153][154][155][156][157][158]. However, the corrosion protection studies of PLS nanocomposite coatings on CRS electrodes at higher operational temperature have never been mentioned.…”

“…For example, conjugated polymers (e.g., polyaniline [139][140][141][142][143][144], polypyrrole [145] and poly(3-hexylthiophene) [146]), thermoplastic polymers (e.g., poly(methyl methacrylate) [147][148][149], polystyrene [150], poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) [151], polysulfone [152] and polyacrylate [153]) and thermosetting polymers (e.g., polyimide [154][155][156][157] and epoxy [158]) all had been blending with organo-modified clay or raw Na + -MMT clay through different preparative routes such as in situ polymerization or solution dispersion approach for making a series of novel advanced anticorrosion coatings based on a series of electrochemical corrosion parameter measurements of corrosion potential, polarization resistance and corrosion current at room temperature.…”

“…Yeh et al recently described the anticorrosive properties of water-based polyacrylate/layered silicate nanocomposites [153]. Raw Na + -MMT clay and organo-MMT clay were used for the preparation of nanocomposites.…”

Advanced Anticorrosive Coatings Prepared from Polymer-Clay Nanocomposite Materials

“…Li et al, 1997, investigated the corrosion-resistance properties of polyaniline-coated mild steel in saline and acid by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Recently, PLS nanocomposites used as enhanced anticorrosion coatings have been reported by Yeh group [Yeh et al, 2001[Yeh et al, , 2005Chang et al, 2006Chang et al, , 2007Chang et al, , 2008Lai et al, 2007;. For example, conjugated polymers (e.g., polyaniline, polypyrrole, and poly(3-hexylthiophene)), thermoplastic polymers (e.g., poly(methyl methacrylate), polystyrene, poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile), polysulfone, and polyacrylate), and thermosetting polymers (e.g., polyimide and epoxy) all had been blended with organo-modified clay or raw Na + −MMT clay through different preparative routes such as in-situ polymerization or solution dispersion, to make a series of novel advanced anticorrosion coatings based on a series of electrochemical corrosion parameter measurements of corrosion potential, polarization resistance and corrosion current at room temperature.…”
