Sumario:In this work, biopolymer based sol-gel was synthesized by doping 3-mercaptopropanoic acid (MPA) with chitosan and a hybrid of 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). Prepared MPA/hybrid-doped chitosan was applied toa copper (Cu) metal surface by the self-assembly technique to protect the Cu metal from corrosion in a 3.5% NaCl solution. The structure, mechanism and morphology of the modified electrodes were examined using Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The decrease in surface roughness for Hy/chitosan/MPA-coated Cu indicates the formation of a dense layer on Cu metal confirmed by AFM. The corrosion protection evaluation of sol-gel coated electrodes was analyzed using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization studies (PDS) in a 3.5% NaCl medium. The MPA/hybrid-doped chitosan sol-gel coated Cu metal showed the greatest resistance to corrosionthanother sol-gel modified electrodes. The MPA-doped-chitosan/Hy sol-gel coating protected the Cu metal by an anodic dissolution process and improved its corrosion protection to 99.9%.
