In this work, the corrosion protective performance of composites of PANI, doped with phosphoric acid (PANI-PA), in a UV-curable polyester acrylate (PEA) matrix applied on polished carbon steel is investigated.
Phosphoric acid is used as the dopant considering the important role of PANI’s counter-ion in corrosion prevention [8]and the reported effectiveness of this dopant in corrosion inhibition of steel
