Silica/Polypyrrole nanocomposites (SiO2/PPy) incorporating oxalate as counter anion (SiO2/PPyOx) were chemically polymerized in the solution with the presence of pyrrole, silica, and sodium oxalate. Nanocomposites SiO2/PPyOx at different concentrations of oxalate anion were characterized with FTIR, XRD, EDX, TGA, and TEM. The corrosion protective properties for carbon steel of nanocomposites in epoxy coating were studied by electrochemical techniques including electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and open circuit potential (OCP). FTIR results of nanocomposites show a slightly red-shift in terms of wavelength compared with the case of PPy and SiO2 spectra. It may be due to a better conjugation and interactions between PPy and SiO2 in nanocomposite structure. TEM image indicated that nanocomposites have spherical morphologies with diameters between 100 and 150 nm. The EIS results showed that |Z| modulus values of epoxy coatings containing SiO2/PPyOx composites reached about 109.7 Ω.cm2, always higher than that of epoxy coating. These results are also confirmed by OCP results. It proves that the presence of oxalate anion can enhance the resistance against corrosion and it has been shown that the content of counter anion strongly affects the anticorrosion ability.

In this study, the effect of the addition of Nd3+ ions as a corrosion inhibitor of the API X70 steel in a medium rich in chlorides was evaluated. The performance of the Nd3+ ions was evaluated by means of electrochemical techniques such as potentiodynamic polarization curves, open circuit potential measurements, linear polarization resistance, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, as well as by means of scanning electron microscopy and EDS measurements. The results showed that Nd3+ ions reduce the corrosion rate of steel at concentrations as low as 0.001 M Nd3+. At higher concentrations, the inhibition efficiency was only slightly affected although the concentration of chloride ions was increased by the addition of the inhibitor. The adsorption of the Nd3+ ions promotes the formation of a protective layer of oxides/hydroxides on the metal surface, thereby reducing the exchange rate of electrons. Nd3+ ions act as a mixed inhibitor with a strong predominant cathodic effect.

Development of biocompatible dental implants has become significant impact in dental industry. In the present work, we report for the development of biocompatible nano Yttria stabilised Zirconia (YSZ) coatings on 316L stainless steel (316L SS) obtained by EPD process. The optimized sample (nano YSZ coating on 316 obtained at applied potential of 70 V for 5 minutes) were sintered in air at 600, 800 and 900°C. The surface morphology and composition of the coatings were characterized by XRD and FE-SEM with EDAX. The electrochemical performance of the uncoated metal and nano YSZ coated 316L SS samples were evaluated in artificial saliva (AS) medium using electrochemical techniques such as Open Circuit Potential – time measurement (OCP), Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) and Cyclic Potentiodynamic Polarization (CPP).

In this study, carbon steel sheets were coated with a modified epoxy coating. The urea-modified montmorillonite clay nanoparticles were added to a DGEBA epoxy resin in different contents and then applied to the surfaces. The corrosion resistance of the coated samples was determined by electrochemical techniques (open circuit potential and linear polarization) in 3.5 wt% NaCl solutions at room temperature and 80°C. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) evaluated the properties of polymer-coated metals and their changes during the exposure to corrosive environments. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the coatings. An improvement of protective properties of epoxy coatings with an optimal percentage of the modified clay in comparison with pure epoxy was achieved.

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of different process parameters as chemical composition, the pH value and immersion time on the corrosion of the some TiMoNb alloys, using different electrochemical techniques such as: cyclic voltammetry, open circuit potential (OCP) measurement, polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The alloys were analyzed in the natural pH of the Ringer solution, but also with an acidic modification of the solution (ph = 4) and a basic modification (ph = 8). The more acidic values of pH, the more evident are differences between corrosion behavior of titanium-based alloys depending on their chemical compositions and immersion times.

The inhibitory effect of glycerol on copper corrosion in aerated NaCl (0.5 M) solutions at three pH values (4, 7, and 10) was evaluated. Inhibition efficiency was assessed with conventional electrochemical techniques: open circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance analysis. Glycerol reduced the corrosion rate of copper in NaCl solutions. The best inhibition effect (η≈83%) was produced in alkaline (pH 10) chloride media. This effect can be ascribed to increased viscosity and the presence of copper-glycerol complexes.

The corrosion behavior of GW63 (Mg-6wt.%Gd-3wt.%Y-0.4wt.%Zr) alloys in 5% NaCl aqueous solution has been investigated by PARSTAT 2273 instrument. The Open Circuit Potential (ECORR) vs. time curve, cyclic polarization (Pitting Scans) curve and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) was measured for the GW63 alloys in as-cast and T6 heat treatment conditions. The EIS results indicated that the tendency of impedance variation for as-cast condition was monotonic decreasing, however, the tendency of variation for T6 condition was not completely monotonic but the total tendency was decreasing. The values of impedance of GW63 alloy at 0.1 Hz are about 103 ohm-cm2 for as-cast and T6 condition.

In this study, a waste of biorefinery—lignin—is investigated as an anticorrosion coating on stainless steel. Corrosion behavior of two lignin types (hardwood beech and softwood spruce) was studied by electrochemical measurements (linear sweep voltammetry, open circuit potential, potentiostatic polarization, cyclic potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance measurements) during exposure to simulated body fluid (SBF) or phosphate buffer (PBS). Results from linear sweep voltammetry of lignin-coated samples, in particular, demonstrated a reduction in corrosion current density between 1 and 3 orders of magnitude cf. blank stainless steel. Furthermore, results from cross cut adhesion tests on lignin-coated samples demonstrated that the best possible adhesion (grade 0) of ISO 2409 standard was achieved for the investigated novel coatings. Such findings suggest that lignin materials could transform the field of organic coatings towards more sustainable alternatives by replacing non-renewable polymer coatings.

The high electrochemical activity of the aircraft 1579 aluminium alloy with a welded joint and the necessity of the coating formation to protect this material against corrosion as well as to increase the stability of the weld interface in the corrosive medium has been previously established. In this work, two suggested methods of protective coating formation based on plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) in tartrate-fluoride electrolyte significantly increased the protective properties of the welded joint area of the 1579 Al alloy. The electrochemical properties of the formed surface layers have been investigated using SVET (scanning vibrating electrode technique) and SIET (scanning ion-selective electrode technique), EIS (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy), OCP (open circuit potential), and PDP (potentiodynamic polarization) in 0.5 M NaCl. The less expressed character of the local electrochemical processes on the welded 1579 Al alloy with the composite coating in comparison with the base PEO-layer has been established. Polymer-containing coatings obtained using superdispersed polytetrafluoroethylene (SPTFE) treatment are characterized by the best possible protective properties and prevent the material from corrosion destruction. Single SPTFE treatment enables one to increase PEO-layer protection by 5.5 times. The results of this study indicate that SVET and SIET are promising to characterize and to compare corrosion behaviour of coated and uncoated samples with a welded joint in chloride-containing media.

When exposed to concentrated sulfuric acid, stainless steel exhibits unique electrochemical behavior. This behavior can be observed as an oscillation in open-circuit potential between the active and passive states. The transient nature of the corrosion behavior under these conditions results in a distinct challenge for measuring and predicting corrosion rates. Using a series of commercial alloys with various nickel contents, this paper outlines the utilization of electrochemical experimentation to refine the prediction of corrosion rates. The paper also discusses some of the difficulties associated with many traditional electrochemical techniques such as potentiodynamic scans when used for characterizing systems that undergo oscillations in open-circuit potential.
