Reducing Microbially-Influenced Corrosion on Aluminum by Using Organosiloxane Sol Film with Silver Nanocrystals

Article Preview

Abstract:

Silver nanocrystals were encapsulated in mesoporous silica nanoparticles (Ag-MSN) to increase stability and enhance anti-bacterial potency. The morphology of the nanoparticles was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction analyses proved that the silver nanocrystals were truly embedded in the mesoporous silica nanoparticles. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was carried out to evaluate the effect of organosiloxane film containing Ag-MSN on reducing microbiologically influenced corrosion. The excellent corrosion resistance property showed that the sol film containing Ag-MSN could significantly decrease the V. natriegens adhesion and protect the aluminum against microbiological corrosion in seawater.
