Abstract  

Mixed solutions of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) with silane coupling agents KH550 and KH560 respectively were used to pre-treat the surface of carbon steel Q235 and then the effect of the two surface treatment agents on the properties of the applied epoxy coatings was studied by means of FT-IR, SEM with EDS, as well as polarization curve measurement, contact angle measurement and dropping corrosion test with CuSO4 solution. Results show that the performance of the steel treated with PFOA/KH550 and PFOA/KH560 has been improved. Firstly, contact angle increased by 17.2% and 11.7% respectively. Then the time for corrosion occurrence during dropping corrosion test was increased by 64.7% and 38.8% respectively. Finally, corrosion current was reduced by 93.5% and 78.7% respectively. The performance of the epoxy coating applied on the rust steel surface treated with PFOA/KH550 was significantly improved, i.e. the adhesion and impact strength were increased by 14.3% and 11% respect tively, and corrosion current decreased by 96.2% compared with those of the coating applied on the as received rust steel surface. Besides, there was no significant change for the above-mentioned coating after 62 d soaking in NaCI solution.
