PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to synthesize polypyrrole/SiO2 composite coating on 316 stainless steel (316SS) by cyclic voltammogram and preliminary do research about the valuable effects of SiO2 particle incorporation within the polymer matrix.Design/methodology/approachThis study is based on elaboration of coating by electrochemical process and of SiO2 by a sol-gel process.FindingsElectrochemical impedance studies revealed that compared with polypyrrole (PPy), PPy-SiO2 coating acts as a more protective layer on 316SS against corrosion in 3.5 per cent NaCl. Scanning electron microscopy studies revealed that the PPy-SiO2-coated 316SS showed more uniform and compact morphology.Originality/valueTo fully disperse SiO2, a sol-gel method is used. Hydroxyl group is generated on the surface of inorganic particle by the sol-gel method, which improves the inorganic particle dispersion.
