Eletrossíntese de filmes poliméricos condutores em meio alcalino na proteção contra a corrosão

Lauxen, Flávia January 2012 (has links)
A utilização de filmes de polímeros intrinsecamente condutores (PIC) na proteção contra a corrosão tem se mostrado uma alternativa atraente como prérevestimento, pois estes materiais possuem a característica de proporcionar ou induzir o efeito de proteção anódica em metais passiváveis, de modo a desacelerar o processo corrosivo. Neste trabalho foi estudada a possibilidade de obtenção de filmes de PIC sobre aço carbono SAE1006 por eletrossíntese, utilizando os monômeros anilina e 5-amino-1-naftol em meio aquoso KNO3 alcalino. Através da caracterização dos filmes poliméricos, observou-se que os filmes são compactos, homogêneos, uniformes e delgados. Ensaios de eletroatividade mostraram que ambos os filmes possuem pares redox polímero-metal na faixa de potencial em que o substrato metálico é passivável, logo, os filmes são eletroativos. Este comportamento ficou evidente quando as amostras com filmes de PIC foram expostas a soluções ácidas de HCl e H2SO4. O estudo do comportamento eletroquímico via polarização potenciodinâmica mostrou a elevação do potencial de corrosão do aço, confirmando os resultados da eletroatividade. Após caracterização dos filmes de PIC, os corpos de prova foram revestidos com tintas nitrocelulósica, poliuretânica e epoxídica. Os ensaios de aderência mostraram que os filmes de polianilina e poli(5-amino-1-naftol) tem excelente aderência com o substrato metálico e com a tinta. A partir dos ensaios de polarização potenciodinâmica e espectroscopia de impedância eletroquímica em solução de NaCl, observou-se que os filmes PIC apresentaram bom desempenho quando comparados às amostras somente desengraxadas e fosfatizadas. / The use of intrinsically conducting polymers films (ICP) for corrosion protection have proved to be an attractive alternative as pre-coating, because these materials have the characteristic of providing or inducing the effect of anodic protection in passivable metals aimed at slowing down the corrosion process. This scientific research investigated the possibility of achieving ICP films on SAE1006 carbon steel surface through electrochemical synthesis using the aniline and 5-amino-1-naphthol monomers in alkaline medium, KNO3. Through the characterization of the polymeric films it was found were observed that the primers are compact, homogeneous, uniform and somewhat thick. Electroactivity trials have shown that both films have redox polymer-metal pairs in the potential range where the steel substrate is passivable, therefore the films have conductivity. This behavior was evident when samples with ICP films were exposed to HCl and H2SO4 acid solutions. The study of the electrochemical behavior through potentialdynamic polarization has shown an increase in steel potential corrosion, thus corroborating the electroactivity results. After the characterization of ICP films, samples were coated with nitrocellulose, polyurethane and epoxy paints. The adherence trials have shown that the polyaniline and poly(5-amino-1-naphfthol) films have an excellent adherence to paint as well as to steel substrate. From the polarization potentialdynamics testings and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in NaCl solution, it was found that the ICP films have positive results when compared with without films samples and phosphatized samples.

Sensores eletroquímicos de óxodo nítrico baseados em polímeros condutores / Electrochemical nitric oxide sensor based on conducting polymers

Takahashi, Suélen Harumi 06 May 2009 (has links)
Neste trabalho, foram desenvolvidos sensores eletroquímicos para a detecção amperométrica do óxido nítrico (NO) fundamentada na aplicação da ftalocianina tetrasulfonada de níquel (NiTsPc) e do poli(5-amino 1-naftol) (poli(5-NH2 1-NAP)). NiTsPc foi eletrodepositada por voltametria cíclica sobre o eletrodo de platina e caracterizada eletroquimicamente em diferentes pHs. A detecção amperométrica de NO foi bastante sensível, mas o eletrodo não apresenta seletividade suficiente, motivo pelo qual este material foi substituído pelo poli(5-NH2 1-NAP) modificado com citocromo c. A imobilização foi caracterizada por voltametria cíclica e microbalança a cristal de quartzo. As detecções amperométricas do NO foram efetuadas aplicando o potencial em -0,6 V e foi observado que a variação da corrente devido à adição do NO ocorreu somente no segundo dia após a imobilização da proteína, o que pode estar relacionado a mudanças de estrutura do citcocromo c covalentemente ligado. O poli(5-NH2 1-NAP) foi também eletropolimerizado sobre nanotubos de carbono, obtendo assim um eletrodo nanoestruturado e o citocromo c foi imobilizado nessa estrutura. Assim como para os eletrodos maciços, ele não respondeu ao NO logo após a imobilização do citocromo c, respondendo somente no segundo dia e apresentou um melhor desempenho devido a sua maior área superficial. / In this work, electrochemical sensors for nitric oxide (NO) amperometric detection were prepared. For this purpose nickel tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine (NiTsPc) and poly(5-amino 1-naphthol) (poly(5-NH2 1-NAP)) modified with cytochrome c were applied. NiTsPc was electropolymerized by cyclic voltammery at platinum electrode and were electrochemically characterized in differents pHs. NO amperometric detections were very sensitive, but the electrode does not present satisfactory selectivity, and because of this, the material was replaced by poly(5-NH2 1-NAP) modified with cytochrome c. The immobilization was characterized by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical crystal microbalance. NO amperometric detection has been carried out by applying -0.6 V and it was observed that the current due the NO sensing was only observed at the second day after protein immobilization. This can be related with cytochrome c structural change. For nanostructuring the surface of Poly(5-NH2 1-NAP) it was electropolymerized on carbon nanotubes felt electrodes and cytochrome c was immobilized. As well as the bulk electrode, the nanostructured one did not sense NO immediately after the cytochrome c immobilization, being possible to observe current only after the second day displaying a much better performance due to its high superficial area.
