▎ 摘 要
Graphene exhibits great potential for the corrosion protection of metals, because of its low permeability and high chemical stability. To enhance the anticorrosion ability of Cu, we use plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) to prepare a vertically oriented few-layer graphene (VFG) coating on the surface of Cu. The Cu coated with VFG shows superhydrophobic surface with a contact angle of similar to 150 degrees. The VFG coating is used to significantly increase the anticorrosion ability, enhanced by the chemical stability and the unique geometric structure of vertically oriented graphene. The corrosion rate of VFG-Cu was about two orders of magnitude lower than that of bare Cu. This work highlights the special synthesized way of PECVD and superhydrophobic surface of vertical structures of graphene as coatings for various applications.
