The purpose of present study is in the direction of development of an
anticorrosive coating formulation of high durability for carbon steel corrosion
in 3 wt% NaCl medium. The formulation comprises of a macromolecular epoxy
coating (DGEDDS-MDA) based bisphenol S diglycidyl ether (DGEDDS) cured
with a methylene dianiline (MDA). The formulation was characterized by FTIR
spectroscopy method. Performance of the epoxy coating was represented
using PDP and EIS approaches. The formulation acts as effective anticorrosive
coating for long durability (180 days). Surfaces of the specimens before and
after 180 days exposure to UV radiation were examined using SEM. PDP, SEM,
and EIS studies showed that DGEDDS-MDA acted as highly durable and effective
anticorrosive formulation. Results also showed that the formulation acts as
