Abstract: | Polyaniline film as primer coating was deposited on stainless steel (SS) in aniline containing aqueous oxalic acid solution, and subsequent synthesis of top PPy film with 2-((5-ethylthiophen-2-yl) methylamino)-1-phenylpropan-1-ol (AAN) compound of different concentrations was achieved in acetonitrile-LiClO4 successfully. The corrosion performances of coated and uncoated electrodes in 3·5%NaCl solution were evaluated with the help of AC impedance spectroscopy, anodic polarisation plots and open circuit potential time curves. The protective effect of bilayer coatings with AAN compound on SS electrode grew in parallel with extended exposure time. The regular increase in the charge transfer resistance of SS/PANI/PPy-AAN17 electrode was attributed to allowing the limited ion diffusion of top PPy coating with AAN17 compound. The high 21764 Ω s?1/2 value of the Warburg coefficient showed that PPy-AAN17 film on the SS/PANI coating led to the formation of protective oxide layers due to the catalytic behaviour of PANI film. |
