Abstract
⺠Silica sol-gel films doped with lanthanum ions were synthesized. ⺠Films from lanthanum-acetate and La-alkoxide were prepared for comparison purposes. ⺠La-acetate is an affordable chemical reactive preferred for the industry. ⺠Films properties were explored by scanning electron microscopy and X-Ray absorption spectroscopy. ⺠An alternative to anticorrosive pre-treatments for metallic surfaces is suggested.
