Coated samples have been evaluated in terms of surface appearance, surface morphologies and cross-sectional morphologies using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The corrosion resistance of laminar coatings has been studied by means of salt spray accelerated testing and anodic polarization measurement. The results obtained showed that the corrosion performance of zinc-nickel laminar coatings was better than that of a single-layer zinc or nickel deposit with the same thickness, and the coatings with nickel sublayer adjacent to the steel substrate and zinc as the top layer had the best corrosion resistance. These results were in good agreement with the characteristics indicated in the morphologies of zinc-nickel laminar coatings after anodic polarisation measurement.展开更多

It is found that poly (O-phenylenediamine) film modified electrode has favorable electrochemical activity in acid solution.展开更多
Electrochemical polymerizations of various ratios of pyrrole and methylpyrrole monomers were performed in aqueous toluene-4-sulfinic acid sodium salt (T4SNa) electrolyte, using galvanostatic method. pH of electrolyte ...Electrochemical polymerizations of various ratios of pyrrole and methylpyrrole monomers were performed in aqueous toluene-4-sulfinic acid sodium salt (T4SNa) electrolyte, using galvanostatic method. pH of electrolyte was adjusted by p-toluene sulfonic acid (PTSA). In order to prevent corrosion of mild steel substrates during coating deposition, specimens were pretreated in 0.5M oxalic acid solution, employing galvanostatic method. This would passivate the steel substrate and facilitate the coating process as well. Corrosion resistance of coated substrates was investigated in 1M NaCl solution using Tafel polarization technique. In addition, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), morphological characterization of coatings produced, was investigated. Regarding the corrosion characteristics, results obtained revealed that the ratio of 1 to 1 (Pyrrole/Methylpyrrole) could play an important role.展开更多
