Abstract

Epoxy resin coating often exhibits good anticorrosive properties. The present study evaluates the corrosion of aluminum coupons using bacterial and fungal isolates and the synthesis of aluminum nanoparticles using sol–gel method for anticorrosion assay of coupons. Isolates were collected from the sewage area, VIT, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, India. Surface or topological analyses were performed using SEM and AFM analytical methods. The weight loss results revealed that a higher corrosion rate was observed in bacterial treated (0.032 ± 0.1 mm/y) compared with that of fungal-treated (0.026 ± 0.01 mm/y) at the end of the exposure period of 336 h. This is because microbial colonies boost corrosion rates locally by establishing a corrosive environment. Corrosion rate of bacterial treated aluminum coupon was found to be 0.051 mm/year, and fungal-treated metal was found to be 0.041 mm/year. Nanoparticles synthesized showed good anticorrosion property due to their larger surface area and growth inhibition property. Scanning electron microscopic images of epoxy nanoparticle coated workpiece exhibited no pitting showing good anticorrosive nature.
