Poly(N-methylpyrrole) Film on ZnNi Plated Carbon Steel Electrode

摘要

In this study, zinc–nickel (ZnNi) particles were electrochemically deposited on carbon steel (CS) electrode applying constant current of 1 mA with chronopotentiometry technique. Poly(N-methylpyrrole) (PNMP) film on CS/ZnNi electrode was synthesized with cyclic voltammetry technique from 0.10 M N-methylpyrrole containing 0.20 M sodium oxalate solution. The corrosion performances of coated and uncoated electrodes in 3.5 % NaCl solution were evaluated with the help of AC impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and anodic polarisation curves. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) were used to characterization of coatings. It was shown that the ZnNi particles exhibited important barrier effect on CS substrate. The highest 298350 ohm value of polarization resistance showed that PNMP film on the CS/ZnNi electrode exhibited an effective barrier property and electrocatalytic behaviour protection of substrate for longer exposure time.
