Chromium pre-treatments of metal have been replaced by silane pre-treatments as more environmental friendly option.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.

To improve the corrosion resistance on Q235 low carbon steel, in this paper, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS), N-dodecyl trimethoxysilane and γ-(2,3-epoxypropoxy) propytrimethoxysilane (KH560) were used to make organic-inorganic hybrid sol-gel film. Cross cut test adhesion method, neutral salt spray test, electrochemical test and film protective efficiency were taken to value the corrosion resistance property. The corrosion topography was studied by optical microscope. In addition, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) curves and equivalent electric circuit fitting were used to analyze the corrosion mechanism. The cross cut adhesion of sol-gel film can reach 1 class and the protection class can attain 5 class after 72 hours neutral salt spray test. According to the potentiodynamic polarization curve analysis, the corrosion potential of sol-gel film coating sample after 0.5 hours immersion was -0.46 V (vs. SCE) on the 0.1 Hz, and its corrosion current density was 4.74×10-7 A·cm-2. The corrosion potential of bare Q235 low carbon steel plate after 0.5 hours immersion was -0.78 V (vs. SCE) on the 0.1 Hz, and its corrosion current density was 4.75×10-6 A·cm-2. The impedance value on 0.1 Hz (|Z|0.1Hz) (1.27×106 Ω·cm2) of sol-gel film coating sample was more than three orders of magnitude higher than the value of the low carbon steel plate. Even dipping in 3.5 wt. % NaCl for 72 hours, the |Z|0.1Hz value of sol-gel coating sample was still one order of magnitude higher than the low carbon steel plate with 0.5 hours immersion. Sol-gel film with excellent adhesion can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of low carbon steel plate. Sol-gel film can increase the protection efficiency of low carbon steel plate by 90%.

Finishing Process

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.

AbstractThe present study aims at deposition of zinc phosphate coatings on low carbon steel with incorporated nano- TiO2 particles by chemical phosphating method. The coated low carbon steel samples were assessed in corrosion studies using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization techniques (Tafel) in 3.5% NaCl solution. Morphology and chemical composition of the coatings were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy in order to observe growth of coating. Significant variations in the coating weight, porosity and corrosion resistance were observed with the addition of nano- TiO2 in the phosphating bath. Corrosion rate of nano-TiO2 chemical phosphate coated samples was found to be 3.5 milli inches per year which was 3 times less than the normal phosphate-coated sample (8 mpy). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies reveal reduction of porosity of nano-TiO2 phosphate coated samples. It was found that nano-TiO2 particles in the phosphating solution yielded uniform phosphate coatings of higher coating weight, fewer defects and enhanced corrosion resistance than the normal zinc phosphate coatings (developed using normal phosphating bath).

The present study aims at deposition of zinc phosphate coatings with the incorporation of nano Titanium dioxide particles by chemical phosphating method. Zinc phosphate coatings were developed on low carbon steel by using nano TiO2 in the standard phosphating bath. The Coated low carbon steel samples were assessed for corrosion studies using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarisation techniques in 3.5% NaCl solution. Chemical composition of the coatings was analysed by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Significant variations in the coating weight, porosity and corrosion resistance were observed with the addition of nano TiO2 in the phosphating bath. Corrosion rate of nano TiO2 incorporated chemical phosphate coated samples was found to be 3.5 mpy which was 4 times less than the bare uncoated low carbon steel (~14 mpy). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies revels in the reduction of porosity in nano TiO2 phosphate coated samples. It was found that nano TiO2 particles in the phosphating solution yielded phosphate coatings of higher coating weight, greater surface coverage and enhanced corrosion resistance than the normal zinc phosphate coatings (developed using normal phosphating bath).

Stainless Steel 304

In this work structured sheet metals were investigated using electrochemical measurement techniques. The main purpose is obtaining fundamental information about the corrosion resistance of structured sheet metals in comparison to smooth sheet metals as well determination of the influence of the structuring process on the corrosion properties. The corrosion resistance of structured sheet metals is affected by manufacturing process. One of the main influence factors is the change of the surface roughness. In this study the low carbon steel DC04 and the stainless steel 304 (X5CrNi18-10) were investi-gated. The electrochemical tests were carried out in 3%-NaCl solution. Potentiodynamic linear polarization was used to determine such electrochemical characteristics as the free corrosion potential, the corrosion current, the pitting and protection potential. Furthermore, the corrosion rate was calculated for smooth and structured sheet metals of the low carbon steel DC04. For the stainless steel 304 the pitting density was estimated. The surface roughness was measured for both materials. The electrochemical corrosion tests show a small difference in the corrosion behaviour of structured and smooth sheet metals. Structured sheet metals have a lower corrosion resistance than smooth sheet metals. The steel DC04 shows the worst corrosion properties at the structure location “negative” in comparison to the structure location “positive”. The corrosion resistance of the stainless steel 304 is better at the structure location “negative” than at the structure location “positive”. Moreover, the results show the correlation between the surface roughness and the corrosion resistance for structured sheet metals.

Diffusion layers produced on low-carbon steel and iron surfaces by means of vacuum titanizing process have been studied. A new technological process combining a vacuum titanizing with a preliminary electrolytic deposition of cobalt has been proposed to increase the corrosion resistance of layers. As a result, diffusion duplex layers of a Ti+Co type on the low-carbon steel and iron surfaces have been obtained. The layers microstructure, their thickness, phase composition and concentration depth profiles of elements in the diffusion zone of these layers have been investigated. Microstructure studies of these layers were performed by metallographic microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and a SEM electron microscope with a BSE and an EDS spectrometer. In addition, the layers hardness and their corrosion resistance have been determined. Corrosion measurements were performed in 0.1 M H2SO4 by means of potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance tests. The highest corrosion resistance was observed for steel samples with the Ti+Co type duplex layers, which showed the least passive current density and the highest charge transfer resistance, whereas the titanized layers, and the steel without any layer, corroded actively.

A gradient microstructure was generated on a low-carbon steel/Cr alloy through severe deformation by an impact peening and a recovery treatment. The microstructure was probed by scanning electron microscopy, energy disperse spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction. The microhardness, tensile strength and electrochemical corrosion resistance of the gradient microstructure surface were studied. The material with a fine grain gradient microstructure on the surface had increased microhardness, strength, ductility and corrosion resistance compared to a low-carbon steel standard. When a Cr solution was added, a hard (Fe,Cr)7C3 phase was generated, suggesting that Cr alloying plays important roles in these enhanced properties.
