Nano-structured sol–gel coatings as protective films against zinc corrosion in 0.5 M HCl solution

The protection abilities of unmodified and modified GPTMS-VTMS sol–gel films with different Ti- and Al-alkoxides concentrations against zinc corrosion in 0.5 M HCl solution are examined. Prepared samples are characterized by FTIR and TGA. It was shown that the presence of the modifiers, either Ti or...
