Abstract

[Objective]To address the insufficient mechanical and barrier properties of traditional anticorrosion coating,this study synergistically combined nanosheets with tough cardanol-based vinyl ester(VER) resin to construct a high-performance nanoparticle-reinforced bio-based composite anticorrosion coating.[Methods] Gallic acid-modified graphene oxide(NGA) was prepared by modifying graphene oxide(GO)with gallic acid(GA)via the bridging effect of diethylenetriamine. Subsequently,NGA was incorporated as a functional filler into a tough cardanol-based VER resin. Aseries of NGA/VER composite anticorrosion coatings were then fabricated through a UV curing approach.[Results] The optimized cured film exhibited a gel content exceeding 99%,a tensile strength over 80 MPa,an elongation at break of 17. 59%,and a pencil hardness of 6H. Additionally,it demonstrated excellent thermal stability, chemical resistance, and long-term anticorrosion performance.[Conclusion] This study constructed a high-strength and tough anticorrosion nanocomposite coating by synergistically combining modified GO with cardanol-based VER resin, providing an effective strategy for developing high-performance bio-based anticorrosion coating.
