The corrosion protection of mild steel by a newly developed epoxy-based coating system containing inherently conducting nanopolyaniline-clay as a nanoadditive has been studied. Polyaniline-clay anticorrosion nanoadditive (PCNA) was obtained by the direct mixing method of nanopolyaniline (0.03 wt.%) and organo-modified clay (3 wt.%) at atmospheric pressure, and XRD technique was used to study d-...

Polyaniline nanoparticles were prepared using oxidation polymerization in micro-emulsion system. Sodium dodecyl sulphate was used as a surfactant which dissolved in hydrochloric acid giving the micellar solution. Potassium persulphate was used as an oxidant. The produced particles were spherical in shape with an average diameter of 15 nm as detected from the transmittance electron microscope im...
