▎ 摘  要

Sugarcane bagasse agricultural waste has been one of the most common solid pollutants worldwide. Thus, introducing a simple method to convert sugarcane bagasse into value-added materials has been highly significant. Herein, we develop a simple and green strategy to reprocess sugarcane bagasse as a starting material for the preparation of graphene oxide nanosheets toward the preparation of novel photoluminescent, hydrophobic, and anticorrosive epoxy nanocomposite coatings integrated with lanthanide-doped aluminate nanoparticles. Environmentally friendly graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures were provided by a single-step preparation procedure from sugarcane bagasse (SCB) agricultural waste using ferrocene-based oxidation under muffled conditions. The oxidized SCB nanostructures were applied as a drier, anticorrosion, and crosslinking agent for epoxy coatings. Different concentrations of pigment phosphor were applied onto the epoxy coating. The generated epoxy-graphene-aluminate (EGA) paints were then coated onto mild steel. The hydrophobic properties and hardness as well as resistance to scratch of the EGA paints were examined. The transparency and colorimetric screening of the EGA nanocomposite paints were determined by the absorption spectral analysis and CIE Lab parameters. The luminescent translucent paints demonstrated a bright green emission at 520 nm when excited at 372 nm. The anticorrosion properties of the painted steel submerged in NaCl(aq) were inspected by the electrochemical impedance spectral (EIS) method. The EGA paints with phosphor (11% w/w) exhibited the most distinct anti-corrosion properties and long-persistent luminescence. The produced paints displayed high durability and photostability.
