in this study, mixed metal oxides al2o3/mgo/tio2 coatings with al/mg/ti ratio of 5:1:3 and 2.5:3:4 were coated on aluminum by sol-gel method. the surface morphology, phase analysis, thermal behavior and the corrosion behavior of the al2o3/mgo/tio2 coatings were characterized by (sem), (xrd), (tg-dta) and potentiodynamic polarization test in 3.5 wt.% nacl solution. the results demonstrated that ...

Potentiodynamic Pt/C fuel cell catalyst corrosion has been studied as a function of chloride concentration with an electrochemical flow cell (EFC) coupled with highly sensitive ICP-MS. The Pt corrosion mechanism changes significantly: the anodic corrosion is much enhanced compared to the cathodic corrosion that prevails in electrolytes without Cl(-).

The inhibiting effect of drugs towards the corrosion of different metals and alloys has been reviewed in this paper. Results of Weight loss method, Potentiodynamic polarization and Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were investigated. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters provide valuable information about the mechanism of corrosion inhibition. Different classes of drugs, having hetero-atoms...

The purpose of this study is to understand the electrochemical corrosion behavior of 1wt% Cu content Al-6Si-0.5Mg alloy in 0.1M NaCl solution. The potentiodynamic polarization curves reveal that 1wt% Cu content alloy is less prone to corrosion than the Cu free alloy. The EIS test results show that corrosion resistance or polarization resistance (Rct) increases with the addition of 1wt% Cu to Al...

The aim of this paper was to evaluate the usefulness of the sol-gel method application, to modificate the surface of the Ti6Al7Nb alloy and the cpTi titanium (Grade 4) with SiO2 oxide, applied on the vascular implants to improve their hemocompatibility. Mechanical treatment was followed by film deposition on surface of the titanium samples. An appropriate selection of the process parameters was...

In this paper, the effect of penicillin G benzathine (PGB) drug as a green corrosion inhibitor on mild steel in 1.0 M hydrochloric acid solution has been investigated using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The inhibition efficiency (IE) was found to increase with increasing inhibitor concentration. Potentiodynamic polarization measure...

Abstract By the example of study AISI 1016 steel corrosion in HCl solution, potentialities various methods for determining currents are studied. The rate without polarization is determined using method measuring ohmic resistance test specimen. It shown that iterative used analysis potentiodynamic curves vicinity potential avoids complications arise when Tafel extrapolation absence pronounced se...
