The electrochemical behavior of electrolytic tinplates was studied and analyzed by means of electrochemical methods together with tin quantity test and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that the properties of the Sn-Fe alloy layer determined the electrochemical behavior of electrolytic tinplates. The electrolytic tinplate possessed higher corrosion resistance if the Sn-Fe alloy layer was thicker and more compact.

AbstractPolypyrrole nanowires (PPyNWs) were fabricated and examined as a structural component of amperometric biosensor matrix. An enzyme, tyrosinase (TYR), was immobilized onto PPyNWs using glutaraldehyde (GA). Matrix composite morphology was investigated using scanning electron microscopy. Electrochemical behavior of the prepared PPyNWs/GA/TYR biosensor towards catechol was studied and the assessment of its analytical characteristics was carried out taking into account linear range, sensitivity, repeatability, reproducibility and operational stability.

This article examines the influence of fly ash on corrosion resistance of refractory forsterite-spinel ceramics by molten iron as a corrosive medium. Fly ash in comparison with alumina were used as raw materials and sources of aluminium oxide for synthesis of forsterite-spinel refractory ceramics. Raw materials were milled, mixed in different ratios into two sets of mixtures and sintered at 1550°C for 2 hours. Samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis and thermal dilatometric analysis. Crucibles were then made from the fired ceramic mixtures and fired together with iron at its melting point of 1535°C for 5 hours. The corrosion resistance was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy on the transition zones between iron and ceramics. Mixtures with increased amount of spinel had higher corrosion resistance and mixtures with fly ash were comparable to mixtures with alumina in terms of corrosion resistance and refractory properties.

The standard ISO 14713-1 shows that HDG coatings should protect steel in the corrosive atmosphere C5 for 10–21 years. It was observed that pitting corrosion appears already after 2–3 years on roads and urban infrastructures and both Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) have shown that lead inclusions were present in all such corroded zinc coatings. The laboratory prepared HDG coatings with different amount of lead inclusions were investigated by gravimetric method (after exposure in salt chamber), SEM with EDS, and Glow Discharge Optical Emission Spectrometry (GDOES). The corrosion resistance was analyzed in the polarization tests and local probe techniques. The inclusions could accelerate coating corrosion because lead is cathodic to zinc.

A novel super-hydrophobic film was prepared by myristic acid (CH3(CH2)12COOH) chemically adsorbed onto the polyethyleneimine (PEI) coated Fe3Al-type intermetallic wafer. The film character and structure were probed with contact angle measurement, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM). The results suggest that the structure of the film is similar to lotus and the seawater contact angle is larger than 150◦. Moreover, the corrosion resistances of untreated and modified samples in seawater were investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Experimental results show that the corrosion rate of Fe3Al-type intermetallic with super-hydrophobic surface decreases dramatically because of its special microstructure.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of nitrate and nitrite on the weight, morphology and electrochemical properties of phosphated Zn-%12Ni electrodeposite coatings. In order to investigate the phase structure and surface morphology of samples, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were employed. Also, to measure the corrosion resistance behavior of the coats, Potentiostat/Galvanostat test was used. The results showed that nitrite accelerator reduces coating weight and surface porosity simultaneously obtaining by phosphate solution. Furthermore, coatings being obtained by the nitrite accelerator had a higher corrosion resistance than that of the nitrate accelerator.

AbstractPure and enriched titanium dibromide (TiB2) samples (prepared by hot isostatic pressing) with different mole ratios of Ni and Ta were investigated in contact with molten eutectic salt (FLiNaK(eut); LiF/NaF/KF 42.5 mole %: 11.5 mole %: 42.0 mole %) at 600°C. Corrosion resistance of the materials was studied, the mass losses and depths of corrosion were calculated, and sample surfaces were investigated by scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). Nickel addition decreased the corrosion resistance of TiB2. Simultaneous additions of both elements, Ni and Ta, as well as the addition of Ta only showed reducing effect on grain formation and they increased the corrosion resistance which is highest in the last case.

To improve the corrosion resistance of Ni-P electroless coating, the KI was added in the electroless solution. The surface micrograph was observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the corrosion resistance of Ni-P coatings in 3.5%NaCl solution was examined by polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The experimental results showed that KI reduced the amount of defects and the size of crystal grain of Ni-P coating, and the surface of Ni-P coating became more homogenous, smoother and compact by KI. In addition, the phosphorus content of Ni-P coating was increased by KI. These factors increased the ability to corrosion protection of Ni-P coating.

Al-Mn alloy coatings were electrodeposited on an iron substrate from AlCl3-NaCl-KCl low-temperature molten salts with anhydrous MnCl2 enhanced by the addition of NdCl3.The microstructure and properties of the Al-Mn alloy coatings were investigated, and scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and polarization curves were used to determine the composition, surface morphology, phase structure, and corrosion resistance of the obtained deposits. The results show that the surface coatings were smooth, and that the crystallites were dense and uniform when 0.23 wt% NdCl3 was added to the molten salt. An amorphous mixture of Al and Al6Mn was obtained. NdCl3 enhanced the corrosion resistance and increased the hardness of the single amorphous phase alloys. The pitting potential of the coating was approximately −1.04V, and its hardness was 392 kgf/mm2.

The electrochemical behavior of zinc electrode with bismuth addition in 35%KOH solutions has been investigated systematically by electrochemical methods including linear polarization, potentiostatic polarization, potential-time measurements at a constant current density, combining the observations of scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Linear polarization results showed that the open circuit potential shifted positively with increasing bismuth content, which is explained based on the gassing data and change in the exchange current of the zinc electrode. Addition of bismuth increased the exchange current of zinc reaction and caused an increase in the measured open circuit potential. Galvanostatic results showed that the addition of bismuth shortened the passivation time. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the addition of bismuth aggravated the corrosion of zinc electrode which may be responsible for the increased tendency to passivation at high current densities. It has been found that at low current densities the reaction kinetics may be increased by addition of Bi, which is general agreement with the discharging test of actual alkaline batteries.
