Hydrophobic and Corrosion Behavior of Sol-Gel Hybrid Coatings Based on the Combination of TiO<sub>2</sub> NPs and Fluorinated Chains for Aluminum Alloys Protection

In this work, layers of a sol-gel hybrid matrix doped with metal oxide nanoparticles (TiO<sub>2</sub> NPs) have been deposited on flat samples of AA6061-T6 aluminum alloy using the dip-coating technique, with the aim of obtaining coatings with better anti-corrosive and hydrophobic proper...
