The effects of these two additives on electrodeposition behavior, composition, morphology, and corrosion performance of the Zn-Ni alloys were investigated. The electrodeposition behaviors of Zn-Ni alloy revealed by the cyclic voltammetry show that the addition of EDTA to the Zn-Ni electrolyte enhances the Zn incorporation into the alloy film while the addition of NH4C1 produces an opposite effect by suppressing Zn incorporation into the film. With an increase of EDTA concentration in the electrolyte, the Zn content of the Zn-Ni films increases, while the grain size of the deposits and the current efficiency of the plating process decrease. The increase of NH4C1 concentration in the electrolyte would significantly refine the grain size of the electrodeposited Zn-Ni films, reduce the Zn content and increase the cathodic current efficiency. The corrosion testing indicates that the barrier corrosion resistances of Zn-Ni films electrodeposited from NHnC1 containing electrolytes are superior to those electrodeposited from EDTA-containing electrolytes, which in turn are superior to those electrodeposited from additive-free electrolytes.展开更多

The anodic films were characterized by means of the scanning electron microscope （SEM） and energy dispersive spectrometer （EDS）. Results revealed that the addition of sodium hypochlorite leads to the ultrafast growth of oxide films, and results in the significant changes of morphology and thickness. The influence of sodium hypochlorite on formation and crystallization of oxide films as a function of anodizing time was discussed. Meanwhile, potentiodynamic electrochemical tests and dry sliding wear tests were performed to evaluate the corrosion resistance and tribological properties of oxide films. It was found that the oxide film fabricated with the existence of sodium hypochlorite had improved corrosion resistance and tribological properties than the one formed without sodium hypochlorite. Moreover, the effect mechanism of sodium hypochlorite on the growth rate and surface morphologies of oxide films during the anodizing process was discussed. It was found that hypochlorite ions participated in the reaction on anode which causes the rapid growth of oxide films and then affect the whole anodizing process.展开更多
