The manuscript focuses on the study of corrosion resistance in NaCl medium of a 304L type stainless steel after application of protective nickel-based and cobalt-based coatings produced by powder spraying under a continuous CO2 laser (10.6 µm wavelength) beam. Using polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods, the results found confirm that metallic coatings produced under high energy beams offer excellent protection up to an efficiency of E = 98.12% in aggressive environments with salinity to 3%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
