The in situ chemical deposition of polypyrrole (Ppy) in presence of different concentrations of salicylic acid (SA) directly at copper 99.9% surface in ethanol solution using hydrogen peroxide as catalyst was studied. In all the concentrations, 50.0, 25.0, 12.5 and 6.25 mmol L-1 the polymerization was possible. The layer formed on the copper surface showed to be adherent and homogeneous. Its morphology presented as compact microspheres. The polarization curves showed a positive displacement in the corrosion potential of copper with undoped Ppy when compared to the polished copper surface. Copper surfaces containing doped Ppy-SA also showed an increase to the positive direction in the corrosion potential and the corrosion current density decreases more sharply in the presence of SA as dopant. These results indicated that Ppy+SA can act as a protective layer on copper surface and improve the corrosion protection. The protection efficiency of the coating was Cu surface < Cu+Ppy < Cu+Ppy+SA 50.0 < Cu+Ppy+SA 25.0 < Cu+Ppy+SA 12.5 < Cu+Ppy+SA 6.25 mmol L-1.

Pyrrole was successfully polymerized on copper surface in ethanol solution using hydrogen peroxide as catalyst to generate an adherent and homogeneous polypyrrole (PPy) coating. The PPy was formed of clusters composed of small spherical grains. The layer has remained stable when immersed in 0.1mol L-1 NaCl for 7 days, which indicated that the copper-PPy arrangement is stable in corrosive environment. The polarisation curves showed that the PPy layer can promote a positive displacement in the corrosion potential compared to the value of the uncoated copper. It also was observed that the corrosion current density decreases sharply in the presence of the lauric acid as dopant. These results indicate that PPy-lauric acid can act as a protective layer on copper and improve the overall corrosion performance.

A novel chemical deposition method was developed to fabricate an appealing micro-nanostructure on an iron sheet with the assistance of a candle soot coating that served as the surface template. The process is only three steps. First, a soot coating was deposited on a iron sheet surface by placing the iron sheet over the flame of a burned candle. Secondly, the iron sheet was immersed in a copper dichloride ethanol solution for 0.5 hours to obtain a copper layer with a rough three-level structure consisted of microprotrusions, submicron-scale papillae and nanosheets. Thirdly, the prepared iron sheet was modified with octadecanoic acid. It was indicated that the resulting rough copper surface on the iron sheet had great superhydrophobicity whose water contact and sliding angles reach 156.9° and 4.6°, respectively. Here, a new approach may be developed for design and fabrication of ideal hierarchical surface structures via chemical deposition.

The self-assembled monolayer (SAM) was prepared using octadecyl trichlorosilane (OTS) in distilled solution on the copper surface. The effect of inhibitor concentration on the rate of inhibition efficiency and corrosion rate in corrosion medium on copper by using polarization curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscope (SEM) was studied. The results showed that OTS SAMs exhibit the better corrosion resistance; the corrosion potential of copper OTS SAMs protection increased by about 1.02 V, while the corrosion current density decreased to 0.59 μA/cm2. The corrosion rate is minimized and flattened and can reach 9.2% while the inhibition efficiency reached 95.4%, when the corrosion inhibitor has concentration of 40 ppm.

This paper deals with the (Ni-Cr- xAl2O3) metallic composites (MCCs). Restraining of of thermal expansion at adequate mechanical and corrosion properties is the main objective of this work. Composites are fabricated with four weight percentages of (x = 1, 2, 5 and 10% Al2O3). Compacting and sintering has accomplished at (636 MPa) and 1250oC for 7 hrs. All sintered compacts were examined for phases and microstructure featuring. Results have indicated, the incorporation of Al2O3 with the matrix is due to the efficient sintering conditions, that diminishing the grain growth and increasing the softening temperature from 850°C to become 1350°C. Volume expansion appeared in the base sintered composites (NiCr-xAl2O3) due to pores evolution according to SEM observation. As, the Al2O3 has increased, the microhardness and corrosion resistance have improved. DSC results show a clear one exothermic and one endothermic reaction were occurred during the heating cycle. Corrosion behavior of fabricated composites was estimated by polarization curves using Potentiostat at scan rate 3 mV.sec-1. Potential-time measurements showed the formation of protective layer on surface composites compared with Ni-Cr base composite through an obtaining of the nobler open circuit potentials for composites. Corrosion parameters were estimated by the Tafel extrapolation method, these parameters indicated that the corrosion potential shifted toward a positive direction in addition to get lower corrosion current density especially for Ni-Cr/5%Alumina composite.

AbstractThe electrochemical behavior of gold dissolution in the Cu2+–NH3–S2O32−–EDTA solution has been investigated in detail by deriving and analyzing the Tafel polarization curve, as this method is currently widely implemented for the electrode corrosion analysis. The dissolution rate of gold in Cu2+–NH3–S2O32−–EDTA solution was determined based on the Tafel polarization curves, and the effects of various compound compositions in a Cu2+–NH3–S2O32−–EDTA mixture on the corrosion potential and corrosion current density were analyzed. The results showed that the corrosion potential and polarization resistance decreased, whereas the corrosion current density increased for certain concentrations of S2O32−–NH3–Cu2+ and EDTA, indicating that the dissolution rate of gold had changed. The reason for promoting the dissolution of gold is also discussed.

Microstructural optimization of Al-Li alloys plays a key role in the adjustment of mechanical properties as well as corrosion behavior. In this work, Al-5Cu-1Li-0.6Mg-0.5Ag-0.5Mn alloy was homogenized at different temperatures and holding times, followed by aging treatment. The microstructure and composition of the homogenized alloys and aged alloys were investigated. There were Al7Cu4Li phase, Al3Li phase, and Al2CuLi phases in the homogenized alloys. The Al7Cu4Li phase was dissolved with an increase in homogenization temperature and holding time. Al2Cu phase and Al2CuLi phase coarsened during the homogenization process. The alloy homogenized at 515 °C for 20 h was subjected to a two-stage aging treatment. Peak-age alloy, which had gone through age treatment at 120 °C for 4 h and 180 °C for 6 h, was mainly composed of α-Al, Al20Cu2Mn3, Al2CuLi, Al2Cu, and Al3Li phases. Tafel polarization of the peak-age alloys revealed the corrosion potential and corrosion current density to be −779 mV and 2.979 μA/cm2, respectively. The over-age alloy had a more positive corrosion potential of −658 mV but presented a higher corrosion current of 6.929 μA/cm2.

The inhibiting action of Thai-bael fruit extract at room temperature on hot-rolled steel in 1M HCl solution was studied. The chemical functional groups of the green inhibitors were characterized by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy. The electrochemical activities of steel surface were investigated through linear polarization measurements, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, surface assessment techniques based on optical microscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Electrochemical testing samples have been prepared in the form of square plates with the size 1 × 1 cm2. The organic corrosion inhibitor extract from Thai-bael fruit has shown the smallest corrosion current density (Icorr) of 114.8 μA cm-2 and corrosion potential (Ecorr) of -424.6 mV, compared with standard Ag/AgCl electrode potential. In comparison, similar tests in the bare HCl solutions yielded Icorr = 882.4 mA cm-2 and Ecorr = -445.8 mV. The mixed-type corrosion inhibiting behaviour was evidenced in the results of the polarization measurements. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy reveals that the resistance to charge transfer due to the presence of the extracts has been increased by about four times that of the same test on the bare HCl solution, indicating the formation of a protective layer. The adsorption of the organic molecules near the steel-electrolyte interface is evident in the decreasing double-layer capacitance with the enhancing concentration levels of the extract. This latter finding supports the displacement of the water molecules by means of the adsorption of the inhibitors on the steel surface. The optical images of steel surface before and after being immersed in HCl solution also showed pieces of evidence of corrosion retardation. XANES study as well as the linear combination fitting revealed that the samples immersed in HCl solutions with Thai-bael fruit extract possess less Fe3+ compositions. All tendencies across the four examinations indicate that Thai-bael fruit extract could potentially inhibit the corrosion reaction of steel electrodes in the acidic solution.

In-situ AlxNiy reinforced aluminium matrix composites (AMCs) were produced by stir-casting route by adding 5, 10 and 15 weight percentage (wt.%) of Ni to AA6061 aluminum alloy. The density, porosity, microstructure, hardness and corrosion behaviour of the as-cast AMCs was studied and compared with that of the as-cast AA6061 alloy. The porosity in all the castings was found to be less than 0.1%. Further, the porosity was found to decrease with increase in Ni addition. Optical microscopy studies showed that in-situ formed AlxNiy was distributed along the dendritic arms. The distribution became non-homogeneous and coarse with increase in AlxNiy content. The coarse distribution of AlxNiy in the AA6061 matrix also resulted in the decrease in hardness of the composite, after an initial increase in hardness till 10 wt.% Ni addition. The open circuit potential (OCP) and corrosion potential (Ecorr) of the AMCs with 5, 10 and 15 wt. of % Ni addition was noble than that of the AA6061 alloy. This was understood to be due to the presence of AlxNiy intermetallic which is known to have a noble corrosion potential than the aluminium alloy. However, the corrosion current (icorr) increased while the polarization resistance (Rp) decreased with increase in Ni addition in the AMC. This indicates that the coarse non-homogeneous distribution of in-situ AlxNiy had a detrimental effect on the corrosion performance of the AMCs.

ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to characterize KOH based electrolytes and effects of additives on electro-chemical mechanical planarization. The electrochemical mechanical polisher was made to measure the potentiodynamic curve and removal rate of Cu. The potentiodynamic curves were measured in static and dynamic states in investigated electrolytes using a potentiostat. Cu disk of 2 inch was used as a working electrode and Pt electroplated platen was used as a counter electrode. KOH was used as the electrolyte. H2O2 and citric acid were used as additives for the ECMP of Cu. In static and dynamic potentiodynamic measurements, the corrosion potential decreased and corrosion current increased as a function of KOH concentration. In dynamic state, different potentiodynamic curve was obtained when compared to the static state. The current density did not decrease in passivation region by mechanical polishing effect. The static etch and removal rate were measured as function of KOH concentration and applied voltage. In ECMP system, polishing was performed at 30 rpm and 1 psi. The removal rate was about 60 nm/min at 0.3 V when 5 wt% KOH was used. Also, the effect of additive was investigated in KOH based electrolyte on removal rates. As a result, The removal rate was increased to 350 nm/min when 5wt% KOH, 5vol% H2O2, 0.3 M citric acid were used.
