“…13,14,16 Besides, the PANI coating layer is the most suitable substrate layer due to the electron conductivity and the density structure; the density structure can suppress the electrons migrated from substrate on surface layers and the electron conductivity can transfer the electron (generated from photocatalytic coating layers) from surface layer to substrate to suppress the corrosion of metals. [17][18][19][20] Furthermore, the protonation of PANI electronically conductive is widely employed in the corrosion protection fields and promotes the passivation layer formation on the metal surface, maintaining the redox potential of substrate to further protect the substrate metals. 21,22 Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) has been extensively used in various fields including solar cell, fuel cell, piezoelectricity, photoelectrochemical devices, energy storage and transfer, light-emitting diodes, environmental pollution purification, and anticorrosion coatings because of the low cost, excellent biocompatibility, stable chemical property, corrosion resistance, tunable, and outstanding electronic performances.…”
