The BBR@GO was synthesized via a simple, non-covalent functionalization method, leveraging \u03c0-\u03c0 stacking interactions between the planar berberine molecule and the graphene oxide surface. The successful loading of berberine was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The BBR@GO nanocomposite was incorporated into an epoxy resin at 0.1 wt.% loading and applied to a copper substrate. The corrosion protection performance of the BBR@GO\/EP coating was systematically evaluated in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution for 27 days using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization (PDP). The BBR@GO\/EP coating exhibited a total impedance of 5.31 \u00d7 108 \u03a9\u00b7cm2 after 27 days, which was 17 times higher than the pure epoxy (EP) coating. The corrosion current density (icorr) was reduced to 2.59 \u00d7 10\u22128 A\u00b7cm\u22122, a four-fold decrease compared to the EP coating. Post-immersion analysis confirmed the excellent durability of the BBR@GO\/EP coating and the retention of berberine within the matrix. The enhanced performance is attributed to the synergistic effect of the physical barrier provided by the well-dispersed GO nanosheets and the inhibitive action of the retained berberine molecules at the coating\u2013metal interface.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma19061080","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,11]],"date-time":"2026-03-11T15:32:09Z","timestamp":1773243129000},"page":"1080","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Berberine-Functionalized Graphene Oxide Nanocomposite for Enhanced Corrosion Protection of Epoxy-Coated Copper in Marine Environments"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8506-5759","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hassane","family":"Lgaz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Innovative Durable Building and Infrastructure Research Center, Center for Creative Convergence Education, Hanyang University ERICA, 55 Hanyangdaehak-ro, Sangrok-gu, Ansan-si 15588, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Benavides, S.
