Carbon steel was treated by immersion in silane doped hexafluorozirconic acid solution. Treated surface was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and electrochemical methods. The effect of ZrO2/silane pretreatment on the protective properties of powder coating was studied by adhesion measurement and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The obtained results showed that the morphology and electrochemical characteristics of ZrO2/silane film depend on solution pH. Surface morphology was uniform and compact at solution pH = 4. The best corrosion performance obtained with the film formed in solution with pH and immersion time of 4 and 4 mins, respectively. The ZrO2/silane pretreatment significantly improved adhesion and corrosion resistance of powder coating on carbon steel.

Organosilicon films were deposited on carbon steel samples using remote microwave nitrogen plasma-assisted chemical vapour deposition. The deposits were obtained using TetraMethyDisoloxane monomer mixed with oxygen. The formed films were characterised using electron microprobe analysis, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, contact angle measurements, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The electrochemical properties of the organosilicon coatings were evaluated using gravimetric experiments next to electrochemical tests. A significant increase in the corrosion resistance behaviour of the organosilicon coated carbon steel specimen was found when the samples were immersed in 3% aqueous sodium chloride solutions. Also, the surface pre-treatment process of carbon steel had an important influence on the morphological and electrochemical behaviour. Argon pre-treatment improves significantly the corrosion resistance or organosilicon coated steel samples. Gravimetric tests in particular showed that samples pre-treated with argon result in lower weight loss and decreased corrosion rates compared to interfaces pre-treated with nitrogen plasma. Keywords: PACVD, carbon steel, organ silicon, corrosion, pre-treatment, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.

Surface pretreatment plays important role in improvement of corrosion resistance and adhesion of organic coatings. A new generation of metal pretreatments based on nanosize zirconium oxide or ogranosilane film has been investigated recently as an alternative method to phosphatation. In this paper, ZrO2/silane composite film on carbon steel was prepared and characterised by field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrum and electrochemical measurements. The effect of ZrO2/silane surface treatment on the protection properties of powder coating was studied by salt spray test and adhesion measurement. The results obtained showed that ZrO2 was rapidly precipitated on the steel surface after first 1 minute immersion and ZrO2/silane film formed after 4 minutes immersion give best protective properties. Powder coating on carbon steel with ZrO2/silane pretreatement has equivalent protection performance like powder coating with  phosphate pretreatment.

Chromium pre-treatments of metal have been replaced by silane pre-treatments as more environmental friendly option. Nanoparticles can be added in the silane sol-gel network have been reported to improve corrosion resistance. In this work, the electrochemical corrosion resistance of low carbon steel coated with hybrid organic-inorganic sol-gel film filled with nanoparticles was evaluated. The sol-gel films have been synthesized from 3-glycidoxy-propyl-trimethoxy-silane (3-GPTMS) and tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate (TEOS) precursors. These films have been impregnated with 300 ppm of silica or alumina nanoparticles. The electrochemical behavior of the coated steel was evaluated by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Equivalent circuit modeling, used for quantifying the EIS measurements showed that sol-gel films containing silica nanoparticles improved the barrier properties of the silane coating. The silica nanoparticle-containing films showed highest initial pore resistance over the five days of immersion in 0.05M NaCl.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the performance of a fastener composite coating system, sherardized (SD) coating/zinc-aluminum (ZA) coating whether it has good performance in marine environment. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, SD coating was fabricated on fastener surface by solid-diffusion method. ZA coating was fabricated by thermal sintering method. Corrosion behaviours of the composite coating were investigated with potentiodynamic polarization curves, open circuit potential and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods. Findings Neutral salt spray (NSS) and deep sea exposure tests revealed that the composite coating had excellent corrosion resistance. Polarization curve tests showed that corrosion current density of the sample with composite coating was significantly decreased, indicating an effective corrosion protection of the composite coating. OCP measurement of the sample in NaCl solution demonstrated that the composite coating had the best cathodic protection effect. The good corrosion resistance of the composite coating was obtained by the synergy of SD and ZA coating. Practical implications SD/ZA coating can be used in marine environment to prolong the life of carbon steel fastener. Social implications SD/ZA composite coating can reduce the risk and accident caused by failed fastener, avoid huge economic losses. Originality/value A new kind of composite coating was explored to protect the carbon steel fastener in marine environment. And the composite coating has the long-term anti-corrosion performance both in simulated and marine environment test.

This study aims to evaluate the corrosion resistance of carbon steel, used for carabiners manufacturing, coated with three different types of phosphate layer. The phosphate layers have been obtained by phosphate conversion coating with three different types of phosphate solutions: zinc-based solution, zinc-iron-based phosphate solution, and manganese-based phosphate solution. Additionally, the test was performed on zinc phosphate samples impregnated with molybdenum bisulfate-based oil and zinc phosphate samples further coated with a layer of elastomer-based paint. Considering the areas where the carabiners are used (civil engineering, navigation, oil industry, rescue operations, etc.), the corrosive environments studied are rainwater, Black Sea water, and fire extinguishing solution. The structure of the deposited layers was studied by scanning electron microscopy, while the interface structure between the alloy and corrosive environment was analyzed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. According to this study, the corrosion resistance of zinc-based phosphate coated samples and zinc/iron-based phosphate coated samples is higher than that of the studied carbon steel samples, despite the corrosion environment. Also, the most aggressive corrosion environment was the fire extinguishing solution.

In the present work, the friction surfacing process was applied to manufacture aluminum alloy (AA6351) coatings on low carbon steel (AISI 1020) substrates. After friction surfacing the AA6351 deposited coatings were submitted to two finishing process in order to adjust surface roughness: milling and milling followed by sanding. The corrosion behavior of the two finishing process was compared with the as-deposited condition in order to determine the influence of surface roughness on the corrosion resistance of friction surfacing coatings. The corrosion behavior was examined by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization in a 3.5wt.%NaCl solution containing naturally dissolved O2. The results obtained indicated that the elevated surface roughness observed in the as-deposited condition led to relatively lower corrosion resistance in comparison, with lower values for polarization resistance and more anodic corrosion potential.

In this article, a set of aging anti-corrosion epoxy coating was prepared in Xenon lamp light chamber of 0h, 72h, 144h, 216h, 288h, 360h and 432h. Meanwhile, the changes of coating thickness, adhesion properties, functional groups, and corrosion resistance properties increasing with aging time were determined. The results showed that the thickness of epoxy coating was increased more than 50% as the aging time increased to 432h, and reached 32μm. The adhesion reduced significantly, which was 0 grade in cross-cut test at 0h, but decreased to 2 grade after been aged for 432h. Meanwhile, the value of adhesive force declined more than 56% in pull-off test. The corrosion resistance properties were investigated by electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS) in both 3.5% NaCl neutral solution (pH=7) and acid solution (pH=2). The Nyquist plots in neutral solution transferred from single time constant to two time constants in neutral solution. The capacitive impedance loop became shorter, while coating resistance Rf declined more rapidly as the aging time increasing. Meanwhile, the Nyquist plots possessed three time constants in acid solutiondue to the dissolution of zinc in the coating. The FT-IR spectrum showed that the peak value of C-O-C and C-H declined with aging time increasing, and the peak of C=O becamemore significantly. The results showed that the protective properties of epoxy coating declined while the aging reaction going on, with chain broken of C-O-C and C-H bond and hydrophilicity enhancing.

In this experiment two kinds of 410L stainless steel, i.e., the first one is prepared by the I/M process and the second one is prepared by MIM process were used, and their corrosion behavior under stress in deionized water and the aqueous solution of 0.01kmol·m-3HCl+1.72mol·m-3MgCl2 (pH=2.33) has been investigated by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (hereafter shortened as EIS) under Slow Strain Rate Tensile (hereafter shortened as SSRT) test. The charge transfer resistance (Rct) of the I/M specimen is larger than that of the MIM specimen irrespective of under stress or non-stress, which means that the I/M specimen has the better corrosion resistance than the MIM specimen in the 0.01kmol·m-3HCl+1.72mol·m-3MgCl2 (pH=2.33) solution. It was also confirmed from the fracture surface observation that hydrogen embrittlement occurred on the MIM specimen in the aqueous solution of 0.01kmol·m-3HCl+1.72mol·m-3MgCl2 (pH=2.33). This result would be confirmed to be due to the existing impurities and defects in the MIM specimen.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper was to study the corrosion resistance of water-based sol-gel coatings containing titania nanoparticles doped with organic inhibitors for corrosion protection of AA2024 alloy. Design/methodology/approach – The coatings were obtained using tetraethylorthosilicate, 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, titanium (IV) tetrapropoxide and poly(ethylene imine) polymer as cross-linking agents. As corrosions inhibitors, 2-mercaptobenzoxazole and salicylaldoxime were incorporated into the sol-gel for the improvement of the corrosion resistance. The corrosion protection performance of coatings was studied using the potentiodynamic scan and the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) methods. Atomic force microscopy was used to investigate surface morphology of the coatings. Findings – The results indicated that doping the sol-gel coatings with inhibitors leads to improvement of the corrosion protection. The comparison of doped coatings confirmed that corrosion protection performance of the sol-gel coatings doped with 2-mercaptobenzoxazole was better than for the sol-gel coatings doped with salicylaldoxime. Also the EIS results verified self-healing effects for the sol-gel coatings doped with 2-mercaptobenzoxazole. Originality/value – This paper indicates 2-mercaptobenzoxazole and salicylaldoxime can be added as corrosion inhibitors to sol-gel coatings to improve their corrosion protective properties for AA2024 alloy.

The properties of corrosion scale on P110 carbon steel in the saltwater solution containing CO2 have been examined by electrochemical impedance spectroscope (EIS). The change of electrode reaction process on the corrosion scale has been discussed in the present work. It is found that the corrosion rate decreases with the increasing of the experimental time, and the reducing tendency of corrosion rate becomes low as the experimental time was 72 hours, EIS results indicate that the polarization resistance increases gradually and the electrode reaction is controlled by both diffusion and activation in comparison with activation only at the beginning.
