The structure of the film and its resistance to corrosion in a warm acidic environment were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction spectrometry (XRD), polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and dipping corrosion tests, respectively. The results demonstrate that Ni?Cu?P coatings consist of two types of nodules, which are 19.98% Cu and 39.17% Cu (mass fraction) respectively. The corrosion resistance of the 316L substrate when subjected to a warm acidic solution is significantly improved by the addition of the new type of the Ni?Cu?P coating. The as-plated coatings demonstrate better corrosion resistance than annealed coatings. As-plated coatings and those annealed at 673 K are found to corrode selectively, while pitting is observed to be the main corrosion mechanism of coatings annealed at 773 and 873 K.展开更多
