RESUMO

Organic-inorganic hybrids materials can be prepared by the sol-gel process and have applications in biomaterials, catalysis, optics, membranes, chromatography, electrochemistry and coatings. Vegetable oils can be used as organic component for the preparation of these materials and, as they are biodegradable and obtained from natural and renewable sources, they are very interesting from the environmental point of view. The objective of this work was to obtain organic-inorganic hybrid films that could be used in corrosion protection coatings for metallic surfaces in substitution of those processes that use chromium. Epoxidized soybean oil (OSE) and hydroxylated soybean oil prepared by the reaction of OSE with formic acid (OSH), ethylene glycol (OSHG) or meso-erythritol (OSHmeso) were used as organic components. Hybrid films were prepared by in situ hydrolysis reaction using these organic precursors and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) or a mixture of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)/TEOS. In this work the reactions conditions were optimized, changing the constituent proportions (inorganic, functionalized soybean oil, water and solvent), the sol-gel precursor, the pre-curing time, and the conditions of the cure process. The macroscopically homogeneous films obtained were characterized by 29Si NMR, Attenuated Total Reflectance/Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) including Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDX), swelling in hexane and extraction in toluene, adhesion on aluminum plate and hardness. The hybrid films that showed the best characteristics considering the results of swelling in hexane and extraction in toluene, adhesion on aluminum plate and hardness tests were those prepared with systems hydroxylated soybean oil with OH values of 198 and TEOS and the modified soybean oil with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and TEOS.
