Electrochemical Performance and Formation Mechanism of Zirconia Conversion Coatings on Iron and Steel

Zirconia conversion coatings with the corrosion resistance were prepared on 45 steel by immersion process.Polarization curves were measured to investigate the effects of Zr4+ concentration and pH value of the conversion fluid on the corrosion resis-tance of the conversion coatings.Potential-time curves were mea-sured,and the effect of NO-3 concentration on the formation of the conversion coatings was explored.The morphology and elemental composition of the conversion coatings were analyzed by means of scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry.Moreover,open circuit potential and electrochemical impedance spectra were measured to investigate the formation process of the conversion coatings.It was found that the optimized Zr4+ concentration was 0.16 g/L,and the pH value was 4.As-prepared conversion coatings were amorphous and composed of Zr,Fe and O elements.The concentration of NO-3 only had slight effect on the formation of the conversion coatings.Moreover,the formation of the conversion coatings was similar to the local alkalization at cathode and could be divided into five stages,including activation of the substrate by acid etching as well as rapid growth,slow growth,dynamic stability and dissolution of the conversion coatings.The conversion coatings had the best corrosion resistance when the conversion time was 300 s.
