Abstract

The present work is aimed at developing superhydrophobic coatings on AA 7075 using two different fatty acids namely Stearic acid and Myristic acid. The coating was developed by initially etching the substrate in 1 M NaOH solution at a temperature of 70 °C for 10 hours, followed by passivating in 0.01 M ethanolic stearic acid and 0.01 M ethanolic myristic acid for different durations of passivation time. The coated samples were further investigated for their surface morphology, wettability and corrosion resistance. The contact angle and surface morphology of the developed coatings were assessed by contact angle goniometer and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) respectively. The corrosion behavior of the coatings was studied in 3.5 Wt. % aqueous NaCl solution by potentiodynamic polarization test (PDP). Passivation using fatty acids resulted in alteration of the surface morphology, which resulted in the increase of the contact angle exhibiting superhydrophobic nature, which also enhanced the corrosion resistance of the alloy.
