Cerium molybdate containers loaded with 2-mercaptobenzothiazole were incorporated into epoxy coatings onto aluminium alloys 2024-T3 and investigated with respect to the corrosion protection of the metallic surfaces. The coatings were deposited via the dip-coating process. The morphology of the coatings was examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy. Their composition and structure were investigated by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis. The corrosion resistance of these coatings was investigated by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and open circuit potential. After exposure to 0.05 M NaCl solution for 28 days, the coatings with the loaded containers exhibit improved corrosion performance.
