Corrosion is still considered as a major problem in various industries causing industrial breakdowns and loss of tens of billion dollars.
Corrosion-resistant paints protect metals from damages caused by moisture, salt mist, oxidation or exposure to industrial chemicals. Anti-corrosion coating protects metal surfaces and acts as a barrier for preventing contacts of chemical compounds and corrosive agents with substrates.
Graphene oxide nanosheet is used as an additive in the anti-corrosion epoxy paints produced by Nano Arisa Pooshesh company. The presence of this nanosheet procrastinates the direct contacts of moisture and oxygen with the painted surface. Graphene oxide nanosheets, on the other hand, significantly increase the adhesion of the paint to the substrate due to its hydroxyl functional groups. Capabilities such as increased corrosion resistance, fire resistance, scratch resistance, antibacterial property, and increased UV resistance can be enhanced in a variety of coatings.
