  • Abstract
    Poly(N-ethyl aniline) coating was electrodeposited onto Al-2024 by using cyclic voltammetry. The coating was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The corrosion resistance of the film was evaluated by dc polarization studies. These coatings were formed in aqueous solution of oxalic acid. The concentration of monomer and oxalic acid were kept constant at 0.1 and 0.3 M, respectively. The formation of the polymer coating was monitored by cyclic voltammetry and infrared spectroscopy. Preliminary dc polarization results show that poly(N-ethyl aniline) has a corrosion rate of about 0.004 mmpy, which is significantly lower (about one order of magnitude) than that for the non-coated Al-2024.
