▎ 摘　　要

In this study, the composite of two-dimensional graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets and button-shaped polyaniline (PANT) was synthesized and further modified by polydopamine (PDA). The obtained PDA-PANI-GO composite was used to enhance the corrosion protection ability of nontoxic water-based alkyd varnish (WAV). The chemical composition, functional groups and surface morphologies of GO, PANI-GO and PDA-PANI-GO composites were characterized by XRD, FT-IR XPS and SEM. The anticorrosion performance was demonstrated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements and polarization tests. Due to the physical barrier effects and surface hydrophobicity of PANI-GO composite, the approaches of the caustic substances to the surface of the metal was inhibited, while the highly adhesive PDA molecules reinforced compatibility between fillers and WAV. As results, PDA-PANI-GO composite introduced WAV enhanced corrosion prevention performance. Under the optimal conditions, where the ratio of PDA to PANI-GO was kept at 2:1, the impedance values increased by over two orders of magnitude compared with bare steel.
