In this work, polypyrrole-based nanocomposites doped with graphene oxide, molybdate, and salicylate (PPy/GO/Mo/Sal) were synthesized via electrochemical polymerization to enhance the anti-corrosion protection performance of polymer coatings. The morphology and structures of the coatings were characterized by SEM, EDX, FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, and XRD. The protection abilities of coatings against corrosion were investigated in 0.

Salicylate-doped PPy films were synthesized in the same way for comparison. The steel surface was rapidly inhibited and the PPy-based films were formed on it easily.

The synthesis and spectroscopic data of ()-2-{4-[3-(thio-phen-3-yl)acrylo-yl]phen-oxy}acetic acid are described. Crystallization from an ethanol-water mixture resulted in the title compound, CHKOS or [K(CHOS)(CHOS)] , containing one mol-ecule of the acid and one mol-ecule of the potassium salt in the asymmetric unit. Both mol-ecules share the H atom between their carboxyl groups and a potassium ion.

Doping with these anions was found to decrease the band gap of the polypyrrole. Theoretical calculations revealed that changing the type of oxidative agent applied does not affect the conversion of polypyrrole into a conducting polymer, but the conductivity of the doped polypyrrole does depend on the ratio of oxidant to polypyrrole.
