Effects of Duty Cycle,Current Frequency,and Current Density on Corrosion Behavior of the Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation Coatings on 6061 Al Alloy in Artificial Seawater

In this study, the effects of duty cycle, current frequency, and current density on corrosion behavior of the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) coatings on 6061 Al alloy in artificial seawater (3.5 wt pct NaCl solution) were investigated. To serve this purpose, the electrical parameters of a unipolar pulsed current were applied during the PEO process on 6061 Al alloy in alkaline silicate electrolyte with and without Al₂O₃ nanoparticles. The coating morphology and microstructure were characterized by the scanning electron microscopy. The corrosion behavior and electrochemical response of the specimens treated by plasma electrolytic oxidation were analyzed by the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and the potentiodynamic polarization in artificial seawater. It was found that PEO coatings formed in the presence of Al₂O₃ nanoparticle had lower porosity and exhibited better corrosion behavior compared with the coatings formed in the absence of Al₂O₃ nanoparticle in the structure. This can be attributed to the nanoparticles’ incorporation and penetration through the PEO coatings. On the other hand, the decrease in the current density and increases in the duty cycle and frequency lead to further reduction of the nanoparticles’ incorporation and distribution on the coating surface.

表面活性剂对钛合金复合微弧氧化膜结构与耐磨性能的影响

Hydroxyapatite and Fluoridated Hydroxyapatite Coatings and Their Effects on Commercially Pure Magnesium Corrosion Response

Dicalcium-phosphate dehydrate, converted to hydroxyapatite by post-treatment in sodium hydroxide, and fluoridated hydroxyapatite were electrodeposited on commercially pure magnesium substrates that were pretreated with sodium hydroxide. The coatings’ crystalline structure, thickness, scratch hardness, morphology and chemical composition were characterised by GIXRD, microscratch testing platform, SEM and EDS. The results showed that the apatite coatings had highly crystalline structure, acceptable scratch hardness, flake-like morphology and acceptable chemical composition. Corrosion behaviour of the uncoated and coated substrates was investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and immersion tests in simulated body fluid. The coated substrates, especially fluoridated hydroxyapatite coated substrates, showed significantly lower corrosion rates compared to uncoated substrates. The polarisation curves showed that the coatings hindered anodic reactions; the corrosion potentials were shifted toward less-negative. In general, this study concluded that the corrosion rate of commercially pure magnesium could be significantly decreased to be a candidate for future cost-effective biodegradable orthopaedic implants.

Comparison in the Oxidation and Corrosion Behavior of Aluminum and Alumina-Reinforced Ni/Ni-Co Alloy Coatings

In this study, a comparison in the oxidation and corrosion behavior of Ni/Ni-Co aluminum and alumina-reinforced electrodeposited composites has been made. The developed coatings were characterized for the morphology, structure, microhardness, oxidation, and corrosion resistance. It was found that the incorporation of Al particles in NiCo matrix is higher (9 wt pct) compared to Ni matrix (1 wt pct). In the case of aluminum oxide particles, about 5 and 7 wt pct had been obtained in Ni and NiCo matrices respectively. The difference in the surface morphology was observed with respect to metallic (Al) and inert ceramic (Al₂O₃) particle incorporation. X-ray diffraction studies showed the presence of predominant Ni (200) reflection in the coatings. Also, peaks corresponding to Al and Al₂O₃ particles were present. The Ni/NiCo-Al coatings exhibited higher microhardness values at 1273 K (1000 °C) compared to alumina-reinforced coatings, indicating better thermal stability of the former coatings. The NiAl coating showed one and two orders of magnitude improved oxidation resistance compared to NiCoAl and Ni/NiCo-Al₂O₃ coatings, respectively. It was observed that the Ni-Al composite coating exhibited poor corrosion resistance in 3.5 pct NaCl solution compared to the other coatings studied.
