Abstract:The creation of anticorrosion hybrid zinc-based coatings containing chitosan particles with low (LMC) or high (HMC) molecular weight is an effective method for safe and durable exploitation of different steel infrastructures. In this work, hybrid coatings consisting of zinc and two types of chitosan particles (LMC or HMC) were obtained to protect low-carbon steel from corrosion attack in a chloride environment. Chitosans with different molecular weights (CS50 Mw 50–190 kDa and CS190 Mw 190–310 kDa) have been a… Show more
