Performance of Sprayed PVDF-Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> Composite Coating for Industrial and Civil Applications
Because of their great water repellency, Superhydrophobic coatings have a major impact on a variety of industrial applications. The current study’s key originality is the development of low-cost, stable, superhydrophobic, and corrosion-resistant composite coatings. In the present work, polyvinyliden...

Because of their great water repellency, Superhydrophobic coatings have a major impact on a variety of industrial applications. The current study’s key originality is the development of low-cost, stable, superhydrophobic, and corrosion-resistant composite coatings. In the present work, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> composite coatings were produced using the spray technique to investigate the wettability and corrosion behavior of the coated materials for industrial and civil applications. PVDF was mixed with various concentrations of Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> nanoparticles, and the mixture was sprayed onto steel, aluminum, and glass substrates. The wettability and morphology of the coated surfaces were investigated using the sessile droplet method and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The corrosion resistance of bare substrates was compared to that of those coated with PVDF alone and those coated with PVDF/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> nanoparticles using Tafel polarization techniques.
