The results show that the high corrosion resistance of Fe-Cr Alloy is attributed to a passive film which is formed more easily when the alloy contains a large quantity of Cr element. However, its corrosion resistance varies in the solutions with different pH values, especially in the initial corrosion. The average impedance values in neutral and alkaline solution are much higher than that in acidic solution because the passive film is more likely to dissolve in the acidic condition. Moreover, the destructive effect of C1- and SO42 ions on the passive film is also demonstrated in corrosion process through the change of the impedance value with the steeping time.展开更多

Quasicrystals have unique properties in their own structure. In the surface structure generally we should pay attention to two subjects. Firstly, what kind of atoms have situated on the surface and secondly the form of collecting atoms by each other sides. Usually, there are different ways for answer to these questions. In this study, Low Energy Ion Scattering (LEIS) technique has been applied. We select a representative cell by using gained information from Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) technique, and give the information to the SABRE computer program. This computer program has been run for azimuthally angles 0 - 180 degrees in the intervals of 9 degree and its output has been analyzed for gaining azimuthally scan. The azimuthally scan shows the existing of a symmetry 72 degree on the surface of this quasicrystal.展开更多

The inherently high electrochemical activity of bare magnesium surfaces still lacks a convincing mechanism to describe the observed experimental characteristics, and it has prompted the development of various types of protective coatings with the aim of slowing metal dissolution. In recent years, new instruments and techniques have been developed to study with spatial resolution the local corrosion processes that occur in metallic materials in general, and for magnesium and its alloys in particular, both for bare surfaces and coated. Scanning microelectrochemical techniques, such as local electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(LEIS), scanning electrochemical microscopy(SECM), scanning vibrating electrode technique(SVET), scanning ion-selective electrode technique(SIET) and scanning Kelvin probe(SKP) can provide information about the local electrochemical activity of metallic surfaces. In the present work, the applications of these techniques in corrosion studies of magnesium and its alloys are reviewed. Assessment of corrosion mechanisms, barrier properties of conventional coatings and active corrosion behavior of self-healing coatings are examined. Limitations and future developments in this area are discussed.展开更多
