Abstract

Protection of aluminum metal and its alloys from corrosion is a key requirement for many engineering applications. Nowadays, sol–gel coating technology is recognized as the ideal replacement for chromate conversion coatings. The present work makes use of 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) as a precursor for sol–gel coating. GPTMS was subjected to hydrolysis and subsequent condensation reaction to get a three-dimensional network and methylthiourea (MTU) was incorporated into the sol–gel matrix. MTU-doped GPTMS-based sol–gel coatings were applied over aluminum metal by dip coating method. The resultant coating was studied by FTIR, XRD and SEM. MTU-doped GPTMS-based sol–gel coatings increased the hydrophobic nature of the coating and were stable up to a temperature of 450°C. The protective nature of the coatings was evaluated in a 1% NaCl environment using electrochemical impedance and polarization studies. The study has revealed that doping of MTU enhanced the protection ability of doped GPTMS-based sol–gel coating to a significant extent.
