Abstract A high-temperature autoclave was used to grow CO2 corrosion-product films on P110SS steel specimens while the surface of the specimens was continuously subjected to tensile stress in a four-point bending jig; the autoclaving times were 6, 18, 36, and 72 h. A scanning electron microscope was used to observe the surface topography of the corrosion-product films formed on the P110SS steels. An X-ray diffraction was used to analyze the phase compositions of the corrosion products. The electrochemical performance of the films was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization curves. The results showed that tensile stress could hinder the formation of corrosion-product films; the integrity and compactness of the films worsened, but the phase compositions of the films did not change. The applied tensile stress resulted in a smaller grain size of the corrosion-product films, and the grain boundaries increased. In addition, owing to the induced tensile stress, the charge transfer resistances decreased, and the corrosion current densities increased for the P110SS steels with corrosion-product films in a 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution saturated with CO2.

The precursor Ni (OH)2 was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method with hexamethylenetetramine ((CH2)6N4) as precipitant and template, and then NiO was gained after calcination. The phase and morphology of the synthesized product were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the electrochemical capacitive characterization was performed using cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronopotentiometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in a 6mol/L KOH aqueous solution electrolyte. The result shows that spherical NiO without impurity was synthesized, the average diameter of the spheres is 5 um and these spheres were constructed by the interactive arrangement of many nanoflakes in three dimensions. This kind of NiO shows the typical electrochemical characteristics of pseudo capacitance with high specific capacity and excellent rate capability. The specific capacity can reach 515F/g at the current density of 1A/g

This work researches the influence of the nickel content on the structural and anticorrosive properties of ZrSiTiN films deposited by means of reactive co-sputtering on alloys of Ti6Al4V. The morphology and structure were analyzed by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the chemical composition was identified via X-ray scattering spectroscopy (EDS). The corrosion resistance was studied using potentiodynamic polarization (PP) tests employing a 3.5% by weight NaCl solution. In the films, an increase of Ni up to 6.97 at% was observed, while in XRD the FCC phase of (Zr, Ti) N was identified, with a mixed orientation in planes (111) and (200), which tended to diminish with the increase of Ni. Finally, with the addition of Ni, the corrosion current densities were reduced from 5.56 𝑥 10−8 to 2.64 𝑥 10−9 𝐴/𝑐m2. The improvement in the corrosion resistance is due to the effect of the Ni on the microstructure of the system (Zr, Ti) N, which can improve the quality of the passive film and prevent crystalline defects and corrosion zones.

Doped and undoped titanium dioxide films have been deposited on indium tin oxide glass using the sol-gel technique. The percentage of rutile in the prepared TiO2, calcined at 823 K and determined by X-ray diffraction, was 23% compared to 24% of rutile in P25-TiO2. Cerium doped TiO2 showed mainly the anatase phase, as characterised by both X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The electrochemical and photoelectrochemical properties of the films were studied by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The (photo)electrochemical characteristics of the different films are reported and discussed.

In this research, efforts were made to study the modification of microstructure of pure Ni matrices. Modification was attempted using glucose as carburizing medium under a control of heat treatment conditions. Nickel plates were carburized under vacuum conditions at 380°C and 650°C for 3 hours. In order to determine the parameters of the carburizing, thermal properties of glucose along with the thermochemical behavior were examined by Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA). The characterization of the microstructure of the carburized specimens was investigated by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS). For analyzing the effect of temperature treatment on corrosion resistance, electrochemical corrosion tests were conducted. It was observed that the polarization curves for carburized samples at 380°C were shifted to lower corrosion current densities. Consequently, lower corrosion rates were achieved for these samples preventing the formation of extensive corrosion over their surfaces comparing with carburized Nickel substrates at 650°C.

The corrosion behavior of Zr53.5Cu26.5Ni5Al12Ag3 bulk amorphous alloy in 3.5% NaCl solution was investigated by using potentiodynamic polarization experiments and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results show that Zr53.5Cu26.5Ni5Al12Ag3 bulk amorphous alloy has the better corrosion resistance than its corresponding crystal alloy. During the bath in the 3.5% NaCl solution at 25°C, Zr53.5Cu26.5Ni5Al12Ag3 alloy has the lower corrosion current density than the corresponding crystal alloy. After 100h, the corrosion current densities of Zr53.5Cu26.5Ni5Al12Ag3 and the corresponding crystal alloy are 3.8415×10-8A/cm2 and 5.2827×10-7A/cm2, respectively. The results of EIS test indicate that Zr53.5Cu26.5Ni5Al12Ag3 bulk amorphous alloy has the excellent corrosion resistance because passive film with stable structure formed on the surface in 3.5% NaCl solution. With an increase in the immersion time, the passive film becomes thicker. It leads to impedance resistance and corrosion resistance decrease. The surface of Zr53.5Cu26.5Ni5Al12Ag3 bulk amorphous alloy in 3.5% NaCl solution for 100h was analyzed by SEM and EDS. The results show that the corrosive pitting can be found at both the amorphous alloy and the corresponding crystal alloy. However, the amorphous alloy has the better corrosive pitting resistance than the crystal one because the corrosion products formed by selective dissolving of Zr and Al elements. Moreover, the addition of Ag element helps to improve the corrosion resistance of the amorphous alloy greatly.

The effect of nanomaterials in platinum-decorated, multiwalled, carbon nanotube-based electrodes for amperometric glucose sensing was investigated by a comparative study with other carbon material-based electrodes such as graphite, glassy carbon, and multiwalled carbon nanotubes. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction were used to investigate their morphologies and crystallinities. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was conducted to compare the electrochemical characteristics of these electrodes. The glucose-sensing results from the chronoamperometric measurements indicated that carbon nanotubes improve the linearity of the current response to glucose concentrations over a wide range, and that platinum decoration of the carbon nanotubes produces improved electrochemical performance with a higher sensitivity.

This work evaluate the protective characteristic of the CO2 corrosion product layers formed on the surface of two types of steels, API 5L X80 used for transportation of oil and gas, and API 5CT P110 used for case tubing and pipe for oil drilling.Electrochemistry evaluations and morphological characterization of the obtained layer were performed. These steels were exposed to a brine solution containing 3% wt of NaCl, in a pressurized autoclave with 55 bar of CO2 and total pressure of 75 bar at different temperatures (25, 50 and 75°C) and immersion times (7, 15, 21 and 30 days). The corrosion rate was determined by mass loss tests and electrochemical techniques, such as Linear Polarization Resistance and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy. Characteristics of the corrosion product layer such as thickness, morphology, and chemical composition were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS) and X-Ray diffraction (XRD). The corrosion rate decreases with the increase of the immersion time and temperature, and the lower rate of corrosion was obtained for 75°C after 30 days of immersion, for both steels

The initial stages of corrosion of AZ31B magnesium alloy, immersed in Ringer′s solution at 37 °C body temperature for four days, have been evaluated by independent gravimetric and chemical methods and through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The corrosion current densities estimated by hydrogen evolution are in good agreement with the time-integrated reciprocal charge transfer resistance values estimated by EIS. The change in the inductive behavior has been correlated with difference in the chemical composition of corrosion layers. At the shorter immersion of 2 days, EDS analysis of cross section of the uniform corrosion layer detected Cl and Al elements, perhaps as formed aluminum oxychlorides salts.

The effects of homogenization treatment on the electrochemical corrosion behavior of Mg-0.8wt%Ga-0.8wt%In anode materials were investigated by the polarization and galvanostatic curves tests. The scanning electron micrographs of the secondary phase after heat treatment and the corroded surface of the specimens were observed. The corrosion product of the Mg-0.8wt%Ga-0.8wt%In alloy was determined by X-ray diffraction. The results show that the intergranular compound dissolved in the Mg matrix in the Mg-0.8wt%Ga-0.8wt%In after homogenizing at 673K for 24h. The least corrosion current density, 0.029mA/cm2, appeared in this specimen due to the least corrosion driving force. The corrosion of the Mg-0.8wt%Ga-0.8wt%In alloy in a 3.5% NaCl solution was generous corrosion and pitting attack. The corrosion product has been found to be mainly Mg (OH)2.
