Galvanic corrosion behavior of copper/titanium galvanic couple in artificial seawater

The corrosion behaviors of copper and copper/titanium galvanic couple （GC） in seawater were studied by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy （EIS） and electrochemical noise （EN） techniques in conjunction with scanning electron microscopy （SEM） method. The results show that the corrosion process of copper in seawater can be divided into two stages, in which corrosion resistance and SE show the same evolution trend of initial increase and subsequent decrease, while SG changes oppositely. However, the ensemble corrosion process of copper/titanium GC in seawater includes three stages, in which corrosion resistance and SE show the evolution features of initial decrease with a subsequently increase, and the final decrease again;while SG changes oppositely. The potential difference between copper and titanium in their galvanic couple can accelerate the initiation of pitting corrosion of copper, and both the minimum and maximum corrosion potentials of copper/titanium GC are much more positive than those of pure copper.

Corrosion behavior of tinplate in NaCl solution

The corrosion process of tinplate in 0.5 mol/L NaCl solution was investigated using the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS）,and the morphology and structure of the corrosion products were characterized by scanning electron microscope（SEM）,scanning probe microscopy（SPM）,X-ray diffraction（XRD） and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy（XPS）.The results showed that the resistance of tin coating,Rc,was essentially constant but the charge transfer resistance,Rct,decreased by 2 orders of magnitude,which indicated that the tin coating was not seriously corroded while the carbon steel substrate was corroded continuously.The corrosion of tinplate in 0.5 mol/L NaCl solution was mainly the dissolution of carbon steel substrate because of the defects in the tin layer and the corrosion product was mainly γ-FeOOH.

Electrochemical and corrosion behaviors of pure Mg in neutral 1.0% NaCl solution

The corrosion behaviors and corresponding electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS） and polarization curves of pure Mg in neutral 1.0% NaCl solution were investigated.The fractal dimension of EIS at different time was studied.The corrosion process and EIS evolution are divided into three stages.In the initial stage,EIS is composed of two overlapped capacitive arcs,the polarization resistance and charge transfer resistance increase rapidly with immersion time,and the corrosion rate decreases.Then,two well-defined capacitive arcs appear,and the charge transfer resistance and corrosion rate remain stable.After a long immersion time,inductive component appears in a low frequency range,the charge transfer resistance decreases and the corrosion rate increases with the immersion time.The fractal dimension obtained from the time records of EIS seems to be a promising tool for the analysis of corrosion morphology because of its direct relationship with the metal surface.

Corrosion behavior of Hastelloy C22 coating produced by laser cladding in static and cavitation acid solution

The Hastelloy C22 coatings on Q235 steel substrate were produced by high power diode laser cladding technique. Their corrosion behaviors in static and cavitation hydrochloric, sulfuric and nitric acid solutions were investigated. The electrochemical results show that corrosion resistance of coatings in static acid solutions is higher than that in cavitation ones. In each case, coating corrosion resistance in descending order is in nitric, sulfuric and hydrochloric acid solutions. Obvious erosion-corrosion morphology and serious intercrystalline corrosion of coating are noticed in cavitation hydrochloric acid solution. This is mainly ascribed to the aggressive ions in hydrochloric acid solution and mechanical effect from cavitation bubbles collapse. While coating after corrosion test in cavitation nitric acid solution shows nearly unchanged surface morphology. The results indicate that the associated action of cavitation and property of acid solution determines the corrosion development of coating. Hastelloy C22 coating exhibits better corrosion resistance in oxidizing acid solution for the stable formation of dense oxide film on the surface.

Electrochemical corrosion behavior of arc sprayed Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings on mild steel in 3.5% NaCl solution

Al-Zn-Si-RE coating with high Al content was deposited on mild steel by arc spraying. The electrochemical behavior of Al-Zn-Si-RE coating in 3.5%NaCl solution was systematically studied by potentiodynamic polarization, corrosion potential (φcor ) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques (EIS). The impedance data were fitted to appropriate equivalent circuits to explain the different electrochemical processes occurring at the electrode-electrolyte interface. The results indicate that Al-Zn-Si-RE coating reveals the similar polarization behavior as Zn-15Al coating. The coating has no passive region in the anodic polarization, but far lower corrosion current and much higher corrosion potential. Al-Zn-Si-RE coating provides effective sacrificial protection for steel substrate and the sacrificial anodic protection plays dominant role during the immersion process. In addition, theφcor evolution and EIS plots indicate that the corrosion process can be divided into five stages: pitting-dissolution-redeposition, activation corrosion, cathodic protection, physical barriers and the coating failure.

Corrosion and electrochemical behaviors of 7A09 Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy in chloride aqueous solution

The corrosion and electrochemical behaviors of 7A09 Al？Zn？Mg？Cu alloy were investigated in 3.5% NaCl （mass fraction） solution using complementary techniques such as scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, metallographic microscopy and electrochemical measurements. The results show that both pitting corrosion from or around the intermetallic particles and intergranular corrosion are observed after the immersion test due to the inhomogeneous nature of the microstructure of the 7A09 alloy. The preferential dissolution of the anodic Cu-depleted zone along grain boundaries is believed to be the possible cause of intergranular corrosion. The passivation and depassivation of this alloy show significant dependence of immersion time, owing to the formation and dissolution of various passive films on the sample surfaces. Furthermore, the corrosion process and corrosion mechanism were also analyzed.

Effect of purification treatment on corrosion resistance of Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy

Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloys were purified by filtering purification with and without vacuum. The type, morphology, size distribution and volume fraction of inclusion were analyzed with OM and SEM. The effect of inclusion in Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloys on anticorrosion ability was investigated with salt spray test and electrochemical test. The results show that the inclusions in the alloy can be removed effectively by filtering purification. The average size of inclusions in the alloys is decreased from 12.7 μm to 2.0 μm and the volume fraction of inclusions is reduced from 0.30% to 0.04%. With the decrease of the size of inclusions in the alloys, the corrosion rate of the alloys decreases dramatically from 38.8 g/（m 2 ·d） to 2.4 g/（m 2 ·d） in the salt spray test. The corrosion potential increases while the corrosion current decreases and the polarization resistance increases in the electrochemical tests, which indicates that the anticorrosion ability is improved.

Effects of additives on corrosion and wear resistance of micro-arc oxidation coatings on TiAl alloy

Ceramic coating was deposited on TiAl alloy substrate by micro-arc oxidation(MAO)in a silicate-aluminate electrolyte solution with additives including sodium citrate,graphite and sodium tungstate.The microstructures and compositions were analyzed by SEM,EDX and XRD.The corrosion and wear properties of the coatings were investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and ball-on-disc wear test,respectively.The results show that the MAO coatings consist of WO3,Ti2O3,graphite and Al2O3 besides Al2TiO5 and Al2SiO5.With additives in the electrolyte,the working voltage at the micro-arc discharge stage decreases,and the ceramic coating gets smoother and more compact.The corrosion current density of MAO coating is much lower than that of TiAl substrate.It can be reduced from 9.81×10-8A/cm 2to 3.02×10-10A/cm 2 .The MAO coatings composed of hard Al2O3,WO3 and Ti2O3 obviously improve the wear resistance of TiAl alloy.The wear rate is-3.27×10-7g/(N·m).

Comparative investigation on copper atmospheric corrosion by electrochemical impedance and electrical resistance sensors

Electrochemical impedance(EIS)and thin electrical resistance(ER)sensors were invented for atmospheric corrosion measurement of copper(Cu)during cyclic wetting−drying/high−low temperature tests and field exposure tests.Three-month field exposure results showed that average corrosion rate of Cu measured by ER sensor was well in accordance with that by weight loss method.During cyclic wetting−drying test,EIS was proven to reflect sensitively time of wetting and drying on the surface of sensor.Although corrosion rate obtained from EIS had a similar tendency to that obtained from ER sensors,the former was more dependent on environmental humidity than the latter.When relative humidity was low than 60%,corrosion rate of Cu measured by EIS was much lower than that by weight loss method,mainly attributing to the fact that impedance sensor failed to detect corrosion current of interlaced Cu electrodes due to the breakdown of conductive passage composed of absorbed thin liquid film under low humidity condition.Promisingly,ER sensor was proven to be more suitable for atmospheric corrosion monitoring than electrochemical techniques because it could sensitively monitor thickness loss of Cu foil according to the Ohmic law,no matter how dry or wet the sensor surface is.

Initial corrosion behavior of pure zinc in simulated tropical marine atmosphereInitial corrosion behavior of pure zinc in simulated tropical marine atmosphere

The initial corrosion behavior of pure zinc in a simulated tropical marine atmosphere was investigated using gravimetric method,scanning electron microscope combined with energy dispersive spectroscopy(SEM-EDS),X-ray diffractometry(XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectrometry(FTIR)and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).The kinetics of corrosion process is a decelerating process following the empirical equation D=At^n(n<1).The protectiveness of the corrosion product layer could be attributed to the formation of simonkolleite,Zn5(OH)8Cl2·H2O,which could inhibit the rate determining step,namely charge transfer step,of the electrochemical corrosion process.A model of the evolution process of the product layers formed on zinc was proposed.In addition,the regularity of the corrosion rate of zinc as a function of the NaCl deposition rate can be described by a power function.

Study of the Corrosion Resistance of Electroless Ni-P Deposits in a Sodium Chloride Medium

The corrosion resistance of electroless Ni-P deposits with phosphorous contents from 12% to 14% in sodium chloride solutions was studied. The deposits were immersed in 3.5% NaCl solutions for 29 d to obtain the electrochemical parameters and were examined in a standard salt spray test for 15 d respectively. The corrosion resistance of the deposits was studied by poten- tio-dynamic scan, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and cold-field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray detector (EDX). The patterns of XRD and the results of FE-SEM showed that the prepared deposits were amorphous. But after a 15 d standard salt spray test, a few pinholes appeared on the surface of the deposit and the weight content of phosphorus on the surface of the deposit was higher (which was beneficial to the formation of the passivation films) than that before the standard salt spray test when the nickel content was lower because the dissolved weight of nickel was greater than that of phosphorus. The results from potentio-dynamic scan and EIS showed that passivation films formed on the Ni-P deposit after immersion in the NaCl solutions, which decreased the corrosion rate of Ni-P samples. The results of this work show their potential applications in marine corrosion.

Corrosion influence on surface appearance and microstructure of compo cast ZA27/SiC_p composites in sodium chloride solution

The influence of corrosion on the surface appearance and microstructure of particulate ZA27/SiCp composites was examined after 30 d immersion in a sodium chloride solution with the access of atmospheric oxygen. The composites with different contents of SiC micro-particles were synthesized via compo casting. Microstructural studies by means of optical microscopy （OM） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM） showed that corrosion occurred in the composite matrices, preferentially in regions of the η phase, rich in zinc. The corrosion processes did not affect the silicon carbide particles incorporated in the matrix alloy. According to the results of electrochemical polarization measurements, an increase in the content of SiC particles in the composite matrice has led to the lower corrosion resistance in the composites.

Corrosion resistance of Ti and Ti-Pd alloy in phosphate buffered saline solutions with and without H_2O_2 addition

Corrosion resistance of pure titanium（Grade 2） and Ti-Pd alloy（Grade 7） was studied using the electrochemical techniques of potentiodynamic measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS）.Measurements were performed at the temperature of 36.6 ℃ in two solutions：PBS solution with pH of 7.4 simulating conditions of healthy human body,and PBS solution with pH of 5.2 and with the addition of hydrogen peroxide（0.015 mol/L） simulating the inflammatory state.It is found that,Ti Grade 7 can be a good candidate as a material for orthopedic implant application,because its corrosion resistance in the PBS solution containing H2O2 is better（lower corrosion current densities） than that of pure titanium.

Corrosion performance of high pressure die-cast Al-6Si-3Ni and Al-6Si-3Ni-2Cu alloys in aqueous NaCl solution

The corrosion performance of high pressure die-cast Al？6Si？3Ni （SN63） and Al-6Si-3Ni-2Cu （SNC632） alloys in 3.5%（mass fraction） NaCl solution was investigated. X-ray diffraction （XRD） and microstructural studies revealed the presence of singlephase Si and binary Al3Ni/Al3Ni2 phases along the grain boundary. Besides, the single Cu phase was also identified at the grainboundaries of the SNC632 alloy. Electrochemical corrosion results revealed that, the SNC632 alloy exhibited nobler shift incorrosion potential （φcorr）, lower corrosion current density （Jcorr） and higher corrosion resistance compared to the SN63 alloy.Equivalent circuit curve fitting analysis of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy （EIS） results revealed the existence of twointerfaces between the electrolyte and substrate. The surface layer and charge transfer resistance （Rct） of the SNC632 alloy was higherthan that of the SN63 alloy. Immersion corrosion test results also confirmed the lower corrosion rate of the SNC632 alloy andsubstantiated the electrochemical corrosion results. Cu addition improved the corrosion resistance, which was mainly attributed to theabsence of secondary Cu containing intermetallic phases in the SNC632 alloy and Cu presented as single phase.

Surface nanostructure modification of Al substrates by N^+ ion implantation and their corrosion inhibition

The influence of implantation of N+ions of different energies on the nanostructure of7049Al substrates and the corrosioninhibition of produced Al samples in a3.5%NaCl solution was studied.The X-ray diffraction(XRD)results confirmed the formationof AlN as a result of N+ion implantation.The atomic force microscope(AFM)results showed that grains of larger scale are formedby increasing N+energy which can be due to heat accumulation in the sample during implantation causing higher rate of diffusion inthe sample,hence decreasing the number of defects.Corrosion resistance of the samples was studied by the electrochemicalimpedance spectroscopy(EIS)measurements.Results showed that corrosion resistance of implanted Al increases with increasing N+ion energy.The equivalent circuits for the N+implanted Al samples with different energies were obtained,using the EIS data whichshowed strong dependence of the equivalent circuit elements on the surface morphology of the samples.Finally,the relationshipbetween corrosion inhibition and equivalent circuit elements was investigated.
