Enhanced corrosion resistance of zinc phosphate coatings on mild steel through incorporation of nanocrystalline CeO 2 and CeO 2 –CuO nanocomposite

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Herein, 5–10 nm-sized crystalline CeO 2 and CeO 2 –CuO were synthesized and used as corrosion inhibitors in phosphate coating. Compared with the unmodified coating, these additives reduced the corrosion rate by 3.5 times and 15 times respectively.
