Reinforcing steel bars coated with pure enamel and fusion-bonded epoxy (FBE) were immersed in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution for a period of 84 days. Predetermined damage of the coatings was created with a standard impact tester to study the coating resistance to potential damage caused during transportation and construction. Open-circuit potential and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests were used to investigate deterioration processes of the two coating systems. An equivalent electrical circuit model was established to extract corrosion-indicative dielectric properties of enamel and FBE coatings from the EIS data. The change of coating capacitance over time was represented by a diffusion-controlled process. In comparison with the FBE coating with the same extent of damage, the enamel coating corroded sooner due to its thinner layer and porous microstructure, but deteriorated more slowly due to its robust bond with the steel substrate.

In this work, the influence of ceric ions (Ce(SO4)2) addition to the hydrolysis solution on the corrosion protection afforded by organic-inorganic hybrid coating obtained from tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and 3-methacryloxy-propyl-trimethoxysilane (MPTS) to a carbon steel substrate in 0.1 mol L-1 NaCl solution was studied. Open circuit potential (EOC) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) experiments were carried out and showed that the protection afforded by the organic-inorganic hybrid coating was extremely dependent on the Ce4+ ions amount. These results were in close agreement with optical microscopy observation of the degrading surfaces, both procedures showing that more protective coating was produced when 500 ppm of Ce4+ ions were added to the organic-inorganic hybrid solution. The chemical state of the organic-inorganic hybrid coating investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicated that the addition of Ce4+ ions enhances the polycondensation degree of the organic-inorganic hybrid coating leading to a denser siloxane (Si-O-Si) network. A strategy using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and UV-Vis spectrometry was set up in order to verify, respectively, the presence of Ce ions within the coating structure and its oxidation state. LIBS results confirmed the incorporation of Ce ions in the coating, which, according to UV-Vis measurements, are mainly in the (IV)-oxidation state.

To protect steel structures, zinc coatings are mostly used as a sacrificial barrier. This research aims to estimate the dissolution tendency of the electroplated and zinc-rich cold galvanized (ZRCG) coatings of a controlled thickness (35 ± 1 μm) applied via brush and dip coating methods on the mild steel. To assess the corrosion behavior of these coated samples in 3.5% NaCl and 10% NaCl containing soil solutions, open circuit potential (OCP), cyclic polarization (CP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests were performed. The more negative OCP and appreciably large corrosion rate of the electroplated and ZRCG coated samples in 3.5% NaCl solution highlighted the preferential dissolution of Zn coatings. However, in saline soil solution, the relatively positive OCP (>−850 mV vs. Cu/CuSO4) and lower corrosion rate of the electroplated and ZRCG coatings compared to the uncoated steel sample indicated their incapacity to protect the steel substrate. The CP scans of the zinc electroplated samples showed a positive hysteresis loop after 24 h of exposure in 3.5% NaCl and saline soil solutions attributing to the localized dissolution of the coating. Similarly, the appreciable decrease in the charge transfer resistance of the electroplated samples after 24 h of exposure corresponded to their accelerated dissolution. Compared to the localized dissolution of the electroplated and brush-coated samples, the dip-coated ZRCG samples exhibited uniform dissolution during the extended exposure (500 h) salt spray test.

Immersion Corrosion

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a technology of nondestructive electrochemical testing. In this paper, EIS is applied to study the corrosion processes of Al-Mg coatings. In the initial 24 h of immersion in 3.5% NaCl solution, passive films of Al-Mg coatings dissolve quickly. As time passed, corrosion products increase on surface gradually, which can inhibit corrosion. After 480h of immersion, corrosion products fully cover on Al-Mg coatings’ surface. The EIS of different corrosion processes are fitted by three equivalent circuits corresponding to the three corrosion processes. In the test of open circuit potentials (OCP), OCP is instable in the initial 24 h of immersion. As immersion time goes by, OCP tends to stabilization at about -0.90 V. Measurements of scanning electron microscope (SEM) confirm the conclusions of electrochemical measurements.

Schiff bases m-toluene N-Salicylideneaniline (m-TOL), (B) m-nitro-N- Salicylideneaniline (m-NTR) and (C) m-methoxy-N-salicylideneaniline (m-MTX) and cerium ions were studied added to 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution and added to the hybrid film based tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) e 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTS). The polarization measurements showed lower current densities for the steel in NaCl with m-MTX, indicating that the m-MTX may be acting as an inhibitor. The hybrid films were doped with the m-MTX, Ce (III) or Ce (IV). Electrochemical measurements of open circuit potential (EOC), polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were used to evaluate the corrosion behavior of the hybrid films. According Electrochemical Impedance measurements, all hybrid films, provided protection to the carbon steel. The films doped with Ce (IV), provided greater protection than the other, which indicates that this is the most suitable dopant for use in films.

Interfacial Impedance

The electrochemical behavior of passive films formed on AISI 321 has been examined using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. AISI 321 is characterized by high interfacial impedance, thereby illustrating its high corrosion resistance. Results showed that the interfacial impedance and the polarization resistance initially increase with applied potential, within the low potential. However, at a sufficiently high potential ( V), the interfacial impedance and the polarization resistance decrease with increasing potential. The impedance data were adequately represented by an equivalent electrical circuit model based on point defect model, which described the behavior of the passive film on stainless steel more satisfactorily than the proposed models.

Metallic materials are well known and widely used in various industrial sectors. However, they can be easily corroded in various aggressive environments. The protective action of stainless steel by two organic pyrazole compounds: {1-amino-5,10-dioxo-3-(p-tolyl)-5,10-dihydro-1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine-2-carbonitrile} and {1-amino-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-5,10-dioxo-5,10-dihydro-1H-pyrazolo[1,2-b] phthalazine-2-carbonitrile} in H2SO4 2.0M medium was studied using the electrochemical technics (Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersion X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Polarization curves indicate that both compounds act as anodic inhibitors. A suitable equivalent electrical circuit model was used to calculate the impedance parameters. The adsorption study showed that these compounds are adsorbed to the steel surface according to the adsorption isotherm of Langmuir. Effect of temperature was also investigated and activation parameters were evaluated.

The corrosion property of three currently used hot dipped alloys (Al-8Si, Zn-0.6Ni and 55Al-Zn-Si) immersed in 3.5% NaCl solution were studied by analyzing the open circuit potential variation with time and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests. The open circuit potential of the Al-8Si alloy is 100mV higher than the potential of Zn-0.6Ni and 55Al-Zn-Si, and the potential of Zn-0.6Ni is approach to the 55Al-Zn-Si alloy. The phase angles of the Al-8Si, 55Al-Zn-Si and Zn-0.6Ni are close to -80°,-70°,-60°, and the high impedance values at low frequencies are 105,104,103 Ω cm2, respectively. The EIS spectra of the alloys indicated two relaxation time constants. An “equivalent circuit” with the circuit elements representing the electrochemical properties was proposed to simulate the EIS spectra, and the simulated dates were in a good agreement with the experiment dates. The polarization resistance (Rp) of Al-8Si, 55Al-Zn-Si and Zn-0.6Ni are 18000, 2010, 251 Ω•cm-2, respectively. The results showed that the corrosion property of Al-8Si is well than the other alloys in the test solution.

Linear anodic potentiodynamic polarization and dynamic electrochemical impedance spectroscopic (DEIS) measurements were carried out for NiTi and NiTiNb alloys in physiological 0.9 wt% NaCl solution in order to assess their corrosion resistance. DEIS measurements were performed from open circuit potential to dissolution potential. It was shown that the impedance measurements in potentiodynamic conditions allow simultaneous investigation of changes in passive layer structure. The impedance spectra of various potential regions were fitted and also discussed. The surface morphology of the alloys after linear anodic polarization test was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technique.

The microstructures and electrochemical corrosion behaviors of die-cast Mg-4Al-0.4Mn-xPr (x=0, 1, 4 wt.%) alloys have been investigated. Electrochemical behaviors of all alloys are described by open circuit potential test, potentiodynamic polarization test and electrochemical impedance spectroscope in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution. The results show that the α-Mg grain is refined and the continuous net β phase appears gradually with increasing the content of Pr in the Mg-4Al-0.4Mn alloys. Moreover, the β phase plays a role of galvanic cathode in AM40 alloy and corrosion barrier in Pr-containing alloys, respectively. Electrochemical measurements show that Pr can improve corrosion resistance of Mg-4Al-0.4Mn alloy in the 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution, and corrosion rate decreases with increasing Pr content.

Significance Level

This study evaluated the effect of disinfection procedures and exposure to 0.9% NaCl solution cycles during sterilization, on the electrochemical, physical and chemical properties of different stainless steel alloys used in the biomedical field. Discs of F899 XM16, F899 303, and F899 420B alloys were cleaned with enzymatic detergent followed by 20 cycles of autoclave sterilization. Electrochemical tests were performed including open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and potentiodynamic polarization tests in 0.9% NaCl (n=5). Surface characterization was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy, and surface roughness and microhardness both before and after the electrochemical test. Quantitative data were analyzed with a significance level of 5%. The corrosion current density and corrosion potential of the alloys did not present statistical differences. The capacitance values of the three oxide layers, polarization resistance, and impedance of Warburg were similar among the alloys. Considering the topography, surface roughness increased for all alloys in the post-corrosion period. The stainless steel alloys analyzed were negatively affected at the electrochemical behavior, corrosion kinetics, and surface characterization after the 0.9% NaCl solution and the autoclave sterilization cycles, confirming the need for regular exchanges of surgical instruments and drills used in medical and dental implantology.
