Abstract
Corrosion inhibitors are used not only as separate protective agents, but also to enhance the anticorrosive properties of paint and conversion coatings on aluminum alloys. The use of superhydrophobic (SHP) coatings is a fairly promising and effective method of protecting metals and alloys, however, the low stability of SHP layers in aqueous media significantly limits their practical application. This article discusses a combined corrosion protection method for aluminum alloy D16 in chloride solutions. The method is based on increasing the stability and preserving the SHP properties of coatings made from stearic and octadecylphosphonic acids by adding small additives of inhibitors (salts of rare-earth metals cerium and yttrium).
