Comparative Study of Corrosion Behaviour of Nickel and Gold Plated Carbon Steels Used as Ornamentals in Saline Environment

Abstract: This study investigated the corrosion resistance of plated and unplated steels useful as ornamentals in saline environment. Nickel plating of carbon steel was done in watts solution for 25minutes with a current density of 3 Adm-3 at 60 o C. The nickel plated carbon steel was later gold plated for 20 minutes with a current density of 0.2 Adm-3 at 50 o C. The plated and unplated carbon steels were immersed in saline environment for 360 hours. Weight loss was taken every 24 hours in order to evaluate corrosion pe… Show more

“…Electroplating aims to coat metal on a metal surface or a conductive surface through an electrochemical or electrolysis process, in order to produce a surface that is resistant to corrosion and improves the quality of appearance in terms of aesthetics [5]. Electroplating can be applied to various metal products such as vehicle frames, vehicle engines, and even household furniture, depending on the needs.…”
