It was further subjected to hydrolysis and condensation reaction to form a sol-gel matrix. The TAT-doped hybrid sol-gel coating was applied over the copper surface by Self-Assembled Monolayer (SAM) method. The resultant coating was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), X- RayDiffraction (XRD) analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy-Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy. The corrosion protection ability of these coatings was evaluated by Electrochemical Impedance Studies (EIS) and Potentiodynamic Polarization (PP) measurements in 3.5% NaCl medium. The EIS and PP results showed that TAT doped hybrid sol-gel coating exhibit better corrosion protection than the undoped hybrid coating alone. Thus these studies revealed the enhancement of corrosion protection of TAT doped hybrid sol-gel coating on the copper metal surface.}, keywords = {Sol-gel,Hybrid,copper,Corrosion}, url = {https://ijcce.ac.ir/article_23557.html}, eprint = {https://ijcce.ac.ir/article_23557_fd6dd44635c02be62f0bca1e86572e78.pdf} }
