•Polyaniline in the form of base and salt was prepared chemically and electrochemically.•Corrosion of mild steel with different composite coatings were investigated.•Chemically prepared emeraldine ...salt posses good anticorrosion properties.•Anticorrosion properties were connected with the content of oligomers in the samples.•It was proposed that polyaniline acts as active barriers.
The protective abilities of composite coatings based on electrochemically and chemically formed polyaniline powder against the corrosion of mild steel were investigated. A polyaniline powder has been prepared in the form of an emeraldine base and benzoate salt through chemical dedoping and doping. The composite coatings using polyaniline powders, which were obtained through different routes, and base coatings, which were not corrosion-resistant, with different formulations were prepared and applied on mild steel samples. The corrosion was investigated using an electrochemical impedance technique in 3% NaCl, and the atmospheric corrosion was assessed in a humidity chamber. Emeraldine–benzoate salts, which are a chemically synthesized polyaniline, offer the best protection with an optimal polyaniline concentration of approximately 5wt%. The different corrosion behaviors were assessed relative to the presence of aniline oligomers in the samples after characterization using UV–vis spectrophotometry. Upon comparison between the corrosion behavior in 3% NaCl with commercial primer paint for iron and that with a paint containing 5wt% PANI, the composite coating has superior anticorrosion characteristics. The mechanism for the protection of mild steel from corrosion through composite polyaniline coatings was also considered.

An environmentally friendly cell using polypyrrole-air regenerative cathode and zinc as anode, is investigated in the 3.5% sodium chloride solution for the possible applications as the sea water ...cell. It is shown that cell can deliver constant current in the range of tens of milliamps per gram of polypyrrole, and in the range of hundreds of milliamps under impulse discharge mod, with the cell voltage above 0.8 V, over significant period of time. It is suggested that cell could be considered, at least as a secondary power in a remote sensor buoy system for the monitoring shallow marine environments.

−1, respectively. In cycling regime specific capacity and columbic efficiency were affected with anodic potential limits. For anodic potential limits of 0.32
V (SCE) citrate/chloride electrolyte shows better characteristic than chloride electrolyte, due to the influence of citrate ions on negative shift of doping reaction. Increasing anodic potential limit to 0.5
V (SCE), leads to faster decrease of specific capacity in citrate/chloride than in chloride electrolyte, which was. explained by higher hydrophilic effect of citrate anions.
