Abstract:

The epoxy coatings containing ZrO2 nanoparticles modified with bis-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide(KH-69 silane) were prepared by coating method on the surface of Mg-Li alloy. The effect of concentration of KH-69 silane-modified ZrO2 nanoparticles on the corrosion resistance of epoxy coatings was evaluated. The addition of KH-69 silane-modified ZrO2 nanoparticles can considerably improve the corrosion resistance of the epoxy coating on the surface of Mg-Li alloys. Among them, the epoxy coating containing 1.0% KH-69 silane-modified ZrO2 nanoparticles exhibits the highest corrosion resistance. After 528 h of immersion in 3.5% NaCl solution, its low frequency impendence valve is about 1.6×109 Ω·cm2, which exhibits an increase of about five order of magnitude as compared with the blank epoxy coating.
