Effect of Fe and Co co-deposited separately with Zn-Ni by electrodeposition on ASTM A624 steel

Effects of Current Density and Bath Temperature on the Morphological and Anticorrosive Properties of Zn-Ni Alloys

“…Zinc coatings are widely used in the industry, mainly applied as a corrosion-resistant coating [10,14]. Zinc alloys have substituted pure zinc due to their properties being superior to those of pure metal [8,15,16].…”

Graphene-Reinforced Zn–Ni Alloy Composite Coating on Iron Substrates by Pulsed Reverse Electrodeposition and Its High Corrosion Resistance

“…It is well known that Zinc (Zn) and Zn-based alloy coatings, involving zinc–cobalt (Zn–Co), zinc–nickel (Zn–Ni), zinc–chromium (Zn–Cr), zinc–copper (Zn–Cu), and zinc–iron (Zn–Fe), provide economical ways to enhance the anti-corrosion performance of iron and steel, which has been employed in industry widely. − In recent years, in order to enhance the corrosion resistance of thin coatings in harsh environments, many composite coatings have been developed for meeting challenging applications. , As we all know, compared with their bulk materials, nano-sized materials have a significant large surface area to volume ratio and therefore, nanocomposite coatings have been widely explored for applications . Correspondingly, various nanomaterials have been used as reinforcing phases for preparing the composite coatings in the field of electrodeposition, such as zinc–nickel alloy–cerium oxide (Zn–Ni alloy–CeO 2 ), zinc–nickel alloy–aluminum oxide (Zn–Ni alloy–Al 2 O 3 ), zinc–nickel alloy–silicon nitride (Zn–Ni alloy–Si 3 N 4 ), zinc–titanium oxide (Zn–TiO 2 ), zinc–nickel–phosphorus alloy–silicon carbide (Zn–Ni–P alloy–SiC), nickel–phosphorus alloy–tungsten carbide (Ni–P alloy–WC), zinc–nickel alloy–carbon nanotubes (Zn–Ni alloy–CNTs), nickel–reduced graphene oxide (Ni–rGO), and zinc–graphene (Zn–Gr). − …”
