Corrosion Studies on Nanocomposite based Thin Films
Abstract
Graphene reinforced polymer films were prepared using solvent casting method. The ability of these films to inhibit corrosion was explored by developing graphene reinforced polymer films and subjecting them to different concentrations of various acid medium for different time durations. The rate of corrosion of these films for varying graphene concentration was tabulated. Corrosion studies were also carried out by pasting graphene reinforced polymer on different metals. Results show that there is a high potential to use it for shielding and corrosion inhibition applications.
