Abstract
Polyaniline epoxy blend coatings on mild steel have been studied in neutral , acidic and alkaline solutions with various electrochemical methods. It ha s been found that coatings containing emeraldine base, provide better corro sion protection in NaCl solution than coatings based on conducting polyanil ine. Good corrosion protection by emeraldine base was observed even when a hole was made to the coating. In HCl solution protonated polyaniline gave b etter performance.
