Soluble corrosion resistant sol-gel

A component, comprising:

• a sol-gel coating disposed on a metal substrate, the sol-gel coating further comprising:
• about 50 wt % or greater of water;
• about 3 wt % to about 10 wt % of a compound that is a thio-lanthanide (III) salt, wherein the thio-lanthanide (III) salt comprises a triazole thiol ligand and a cation selected from cerium, praseodymium, or yttrium;
• and
• a binder comprising:
• an organosilane represented by Formula (II):
• wherein R is selected from the group consisting of alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, arylether, poly(ethylene glycol), and poly(propylene glycol);
• a zirconium (IV) tetraalkoxide;
• and
• acetic acid;
• wherein:
• a molar ratio of the acetic acid to the zirconium (IV) tetraalkoxide is from about 1:1 to about 40:1,
• a weight fraction of the binder in the sol-gel is about 0.3 wt % to about 50 wt %;
• a weight ratio of the thio-lanthanide (III) salt to the binder is from about to about 5:1;
• and
• the thio-lanthanide (III) salt has a solubility in the sol-gel such that at least 1 g of thio-lanthanide (III) salt is soluble in 1 g of sol-sel.
