  4. Abstract:
  5. In this research study, interfacial assembled nanoporous zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) multiwalled oxidized carbon nanotubes (MW-OCNTs) were developed and introduced into a silane coating. To analyze the destructive behavior of the nanoparticles exposed to salty solutions with three distinctive pHs of 2, 7.5, and 12, various types of tests such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) were accomplished. The XRD test revealed that the main characteristic peaks of ZIF-8 were eliminated and/or their intensity decreased. In accordance with the obtained data from the XRD test, nanoparticles at pH = 2 had been destructed more than those in the other two pHs. This result has been strongly confirmed by FESEM and ICP tests. The polarization test was employed to consider the active property of the synthesized nanoparticles. By utilizing the Tafel extrapolation method, corrosion parameters were obtained, and regarding the acquired data, the current density (icorr) of the salty solution including MW-OCNT@ZIF-8-Phosphate extract (1.45 μA/cm2) was comparatively much lower than that of the blank sample (8.02 μA/cm2). Meanwhile, the total resistance of bare steel immersed in the saline solution consisting of nanoparticle extract is 10,261.58 ω cm2while this magnitude for the blank sample is just 942.2 ω cm2after 120 h of immersion time. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy inspection was applied to the reinforced intact coatings to scrutinize their passive/active inhibition efficiency. Surprisingly, the obtained results from Nyquist diagrams indicated that the total resistance for the coating reinforced by silanized MW-OCNT@ZIF-8-Phosphate reached 128,630 ω cm2after 48 h, which is noticeably greater than the magnitudes for the blank sample (57,784 ω cm2) and the coating including silanized MW-OCNT-ZIF-8 (97,320 ω cm2). © 2022 American Chemical Society.
