The present paper focused on the use of the salt of rare earth cerium as corrosion inhibitor of Zinc by using cathodic electrolytic passivation method. The corrosion resistance and the microphology of the cerium passivation film were studied by the methods of electrochemical method, scanning electron microscopy (SEM). From the results, it was shown that good corrosion resistance of cerium-based trivalent chromium conversion coating was obtained when the compositions were as follows: Ce (SO4)2, 6g/L; Cr2(SO4)3, 18.9g/L and NaNO3; current density, 2A/dm2; temperature, 40 oC; time, 60s. SEM revealed that the cerium trivalent chromium conversion coatings formed uniform cerium hydroxide and chrimuim hydroxide deposition on the surface of Zinc.

This article by orthogonal experimental method to determine the composition of chromate conversion and use of electrochemical method of electrochemical corrosion of the film discussed the substrate in different components, content, time and pH of chromate conversion coating of corrosion resistance. Orthogonal to determine the best experimental chromate conversion solution by adding the rare earth element cerium and lanthanum salt, and discuss the effects of rare earth elements cerium and lanthanum chromate conversion film on the anti-corrosion. The results show that in CrO3 5.4 g/L, NaF 0.5 g/L, K3Fe (CN)6 0.5 g/L, pH 1, conversion time is three minutes, there is a better corrosion resistance. The rare earth elements in a chromate conversion solution, La2(CO3)3 to 0.2 g/L chromate conversion coating of the anti-corrosion better.

The Cerium-based conversion coating is formed on the industrial aluminum(1060) by using chemical immersion. The microstructures of the conversion coating have been examined by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The electrochemical measurement result shows that the corrosion resistance of aluminum is significantly improved after the conversion coating was formed. The result of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) shows that the cerium conversion coating mainly consisted of oxide of aluminum, CeO2 and TiO2. The formation mechanism of the Cerium-based conversion coating is investigated.

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.

Nickel-Copper metallic layers were deposited onto a steel substrate by using the electrochemical method. The morphology and the chemical composition of the deposited layers were studied by scanning electron microscopy. The electrical capacitance was measured on a functional supercapacitor made of two Ni-Cu deposited layers and a Nafion 117� membrane hydrated with distilled water, which served as a dielectric separator.

CuOx powders with diff erently shaped particles were firstly prepared via an electrochemical method by oxidation and dispersion of copper electrodes in an electrolyte solution under pulse alternating current (PAC). By means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) the current density is found to have an influence on the morphology and composition of CuOx particles. Photocatalytic efficiency of CuOx towards methyl orange (MO) degradation under visible light was investigated. The prepared polyhedral particles show the best photocatalytic activity of 81 % towards MO comparing to octahedral and spherical particles with 70 and 61 %, respectively.

In this study, the influence of the addition of rare earth oxides on the phase composition and density of KNN piezoelectric ceramics was investigated. The initial powders of Na2CO3 and K2CO3 were dried at 150 °C for 2 h. Then, a powder mixture for synthesis was prepared by adding a stoichiometric amount of Nb2O5 and 5 and 10 wt % overabundance of Na2CO3. All powders were mixed by ball-milling for 24 h and synthesized at 950 °C. The phase composition of the reaction bed was checked by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD). It had an appearance of tetragonal and monoclinic K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) phases. Then, 1 and 2 wt % of Er2O3 and Yb2O3, were added to the mixture. Green samples of 25 mm diameter and 3 mm thickness were prepared and sintered by hot pressing at 1000 °C for 2 h under 25 MPa pressure. The final samples were investigated via scanning electron microscopy (SEM)-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), XRD, Rietveld, and ultrasonic methods. Phase analysis showed tetragonal and orthorhombic KNN phases, and a contamination of (K2CO3·1.5H2O) was present. The obtained KNN polycrystals had a relative density above 95%. Texturing of the material was confirmed as a result of hot pressing.
