Influence of Surface Pretreatments on the Anticorrosion of Polypyrrole Electro-Polymerized Coatings for Copper in Artificial Seawater

Plasma discharging treatment (hydroxylation) was conducted on copper surfaces for the subsequent electro-polymerization procedure of polypyrrole (PPy) coating (d-PPy). The hydroxylated surface could solve the criticized adhesion strength and protection efficiency of electropolymerized coatings for m...
