Electrochemical characterization of nano zinc ferrite coating on carbon steel by pulsed laser deposition
2016, Thin Solid FilmsCitation Excerpt :Apart from going for better corrosion resistant materials, efforts are also being made to apply a kind of adherent coating on the existing alloy surfaces, to modify the size of the oxide particles (surface morphology) to nano-size and/or change the composition of the oxides by the addition of an external metal ion (Metal Ion Passivation, MIP) all of which are likely to improve the adherence and protectiveness of the interfacial film. Several methods like sol–gel [1], metal ion implantation [2] and physical vapor deposition [3] are used for developing coatings on alloys. In PHWRs, though the corrosion rate of carbon steel is reduced by forming a passive magnetite (Fe3O4) layer, the radioactivity transport problems necessitate further reduction in the metal ion release.
The beneficial role of Y-implantation on the aqueous corrosion of stainless steel
2011, Surface and Coatings TechnologyCitation Excerpt :The results, supported by XPS measurements, have shown that in the first case the implantation causes an invasion of carbon and oxygen atoms resulting in reduction of anodic dissolution current. In the second case the formation, after the implantation, of an Y2O3·Cr2O3 surface layer seems to act as barrier that reduces the contact between the metal matrix and corrosive medium and enhances the corrosion resistance [21,22]. The objective of this work was to investigate the corrosion behaviour of AISI 321 stainless steel implanted with Y-ions of different doses and energies.
