The current study investigates the improvement in the corrosion protection performance of C‐steel after being dip‐coated with nano films from both pure TiO 2 and poly ethylene glycol ( PEG ) modified TiO 2 . Characterization of the deposited TiO 2 films was performed by different techniques. Effect of morphology, porosity, and thickness of the deposited TiO 2 layers were also studied. Results revealed an increased corrosion protection of both coated TiO 2 films as compared to uncoated samples, with pure TiO 2 (without PEG ) samples showing higher protection. Moreover, increasing the layer thickness of both types of TiO 2 coated films improved the protective properties.
