Mild steel materials have wide applications in marine construction, because they are low cost, available and easy to handle. However, they have to be protected from corrosive media by coating with polymer hybrid materials. This paper focuses on the anticorrosive properties of poly(4-methyl-5-vinylthiazole) PVTZ coatings on mild steel. Further the coating resistance is enhanced by incorporating Titania Nano particles (TiO2NPs). The nanoparticles were evaluated using X-ray diffraction studies (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). PVTZ and its TiO2 nanocomposite were coated on mild steel. Their anticorrosive behavior was analyzed by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 3.5% (w/v) NaCl.
