The present work intended to develop linseed oil-based anti-corrosion nanocomposite coating material. In this context, the epoxy resin was prepared by the epoxidation of linseed oil (ELO). Curing agents (H1 and H2) were also prepared by the malenization of linseed oil, and condensation of malenized linseed oil with diethylenetriamine. A simple eco-friendly method was employed for the reduction of graphene oxide using 10% sodium hydroxide solution. The composite coating material was prepared by direct incorporation of the reduced graphene oxide (rGO) into the linseed oil without using any organic solvent. The stability, surface morphology, and anti-corrosion properties of the coated materials were examined by Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Atomic force microscopy (AFM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), water contact angle measurements, and electrochemical studies. Electrochemical data indicated that the corrosion rate of mild steel is reduced to around 5000 times for the rGO-ELO-H2 system with protection efficiency of 99.98% and the exhibited stability up to 10 days in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution.
