In this work,lithium (Li)-aluminum (Al) layered double hydroxide (LDH) films modified by 4-amino-2-((hydrazine methylene) amino)-4-oxobutanoic acid (denoted as AOA acid) and/or 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane were prepared on 6N01 Al alloy by a facile,in-situ growth method with enhanced hydrophobicity,anti-biofouling and anti-corrosion performance.The preparation is low energy consumptive and environment friendly,relying on self-assembly at ambient temperature.The structure,molecular weight and functional groups of the synthesized AOA acid were characterized by NMR spectrometer,ESI-MS spectrometer and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy.And the compositions,structure and morphology of the films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR) spectroscopy,glancing-angle X-ray diffraction (GA-XRD),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS),field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy-dispersive x-ray spectrum (EDS).Water contact angle measurements (CA) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) characterization show that the films possess a micro/nanostructure with an improved hydrophobicity.Immersion test,neutral salt tests (NSS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) conducted in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solutions demonstrate the improved corrosion resistance of the films over bare Al alloy.Meanwhile,the films also possess an excellent anti-bacterial property to Escherichia coli,Bacillus subtilis and sulfate-reducing bacteria.
