Abstract:A double-layer aluminum consisting of an aluminum core and a shell of SiO 2 and polyacrylic acid was synthesized. This modified aluminum was used to improve the corrosion resistance and dispersive property of aluminum in waterborne media. TEM, FTIR, XPS, and EDX determination showed that PAA and SiO 2 were coated on the surface of aluminum. Evolved hydrogen detection showed that the corrosion resistance of composite particle had been markedly improved. Maximum corrosion inhibition efficiency of SiO 2 coated al… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
