Abstract
- Polyester-urea coatings were synthesized from corn oil with the help of a series of reactions in three different compositions by varying the amount of urea. Out of all the synthesized compositions, the best composition was optimized based on various parameters. The optimized composition was used as a matrix and graphene oxide (GO) was incorporated in three ratios, for the formulation of corn oil-based CPEUr@GO nanocomposites. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to confirm all the reactions. The physico-mechanical properties of CPEU[r.sub.2] coating were found to be the best among all the compositions. Therefore, CPEU[r.sub.2] was selected as a matrix for the inclusion of GO nanosheets to prepare CPEU[r.sub.2]@GO nanocomposites. Thermogravimetric analysis results showed that incorporation of GO enhanced the thermal stability of CPEU[r.sub.2] up to 325[degrees] C. The anticorrosive studies revealed the high impedance value of 6.5 * [10.sup.5] [ohm].[cm.sup.2] in case of CPEU[r.sub.2]@G[O.sub.0.5]. Furthermore, it can be concluded that the inclusion of 0.5 wt% GO proved to be the optimized amount to produce sustainable CPEU[r.sub.2] coatings with good performance. These CPEUr@GO nanocomposite coatings can be used for various protective purposes owing to their excellent physico-mechanical thermal as well as anticorrosive performance. Highlights * Corn oil-based polyester-urea, CPEUr, coatings were synthesized in three different compositions. * The best composition was used as a matrix for the formulation of CPEUr@GO nanocomposites. * Graphene oxide of 0.5 wt% was found to be the optimum quantity required to modify CPEUr matrix. * Thermal stability, mechanical durability as well as corrosion resistance performances were enhanced. * The environment friendly approach is suitable for the development of corrosion protective coatings.
