A self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of hexadecanoate ion C15H31CO2- (C16A−) was prepared on a zinc electrode covered with a layer of hydrated cerium(III) oxide Ce2O3. The protection of zinc against corrosion was examined for the electrode coated with the Ce2O3 layer and the C16A− SAM in an oxygenated 0.5 M NaCl solution. A more positive open-circuit potential of the coated electrode was maintained during immersion in the solution for 4 h than that of the uncoated one and polarization curves showed marked suppression of the anodic process, implying that the layer modified with the SAM acted as a passive film. The protective efficiency of the modified layer was extremely high, more than 99%. The zinc surface coated with the Ce2O3 layer and the C16A− SAM was characterized by X-ray photoelectron and FTIR reflection spectroscopies and contact angle measurement with a drop of water.
