Herein, we demonstrated a facile non-covalent functionalization route to exploit the GO sheets as an efficient carrier for high loading of Zn(II) corrosion inhibitor with the controllable slow release. The Zn(II) intercalated GO exhibited good compatibility with epoxy matrix stemming from the chemical and structural alterations as confirmed by Raman analysis along with XPS, FE-SEM and HRTEM. The kinetics of Zn(II) release from the GO carrier revealed the consistency of experimental data with the Higuchi model. EIS combined with cathodic disbondment tests results proved the dual-function active/passive corrosion mitigation of Zn(II) intercalated GO-Epoxy system.
