Superior corrosion resistance along with higher mechanical performance is becoming a primary requirement to decrease operational costs in the industries. Nickel-based phosphorus coatings have been reported to show better corrosion resistance properties but suffer from a lack of mechanical strength. Zirconium carbide nanoparticles (ZCNPs) are known for promising hardness and unreactive behavior among variously reported reinforcements. The present study focuses on the synthesis and characterization of novel Ni-P-ZrC nanocomposite coatings developed through the electrodeposition technique. Successful coelectrodeposition of ZCNPs without any observable defects was carried out utilizing a modified Watts bath and optimized conditions. For a clear comparison, structural, surface, mechanical, and electrochemical behaviors of Ni-P and Ni-P-ZrC nanocomposite coatings containing 0.75 g/L ZCNPs were thoroughly investigated. The addition of ZCNPs has a considerable impact on the properties of Ni-P coatings. Enhancement in the mechanical properties (microhardness, nanoindentation, wear, and erosion) is observed due to reinforcement of ZCNPs in the Ni-P matrix, which can be attributed to mainly the dispersion hardening effect. Furthermore, corrosion protection efficiency (PE%) of the Ni-P matrix was enhanced by the incorporation of ZCNPs from 71 to 85.4%. The Ni-P-ZrC nanocomposite coatings provide an exciting option for their utilization in the automotive, electronics, aerospace, oil, and gas industry.

Mild Steel (MS) is considered as the most widely employed engineering material, which is primarily being used in an automotive industry. Several parts including fuel system, outer and body panel, trims, chassis exhaust, along with many other parts are made up of MS. The driving force behind versatility of MS is its unique set of characteristics. However, the issues arise when its tribological degradation occur that creating problems in service conditions. The best solution for this problem is to coat the mild steel with transition metal-based nitride coatings such as, Ni and Cr. Insufficient Literature is available related to the mechanical performance of single/gradient layer (Ni, Cr) N ternary coating on mild steel substrate. Current review focuses on the characteristics of the coatings that are deposited through two different deposition techniques; electrodeposition and magnetron sputtering. The studied coatings materials are nitrides of nickel and chromium, deposited in several layers. Furthermore, the structural and mechanical properties of these coatings have been compared.

Nickel-based microparts possess a short lifetime owing to their rapid dissolution in corrosive environments. To mitigate this phenomenon, composite microparts of graphene/Ni were prepared using UV-LIGA technology; their corrosion behavior was examined in acid, alkali, and salt solutions as well as after subjecting them to heat-treatment processes. The microstructures were investigated with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Corrosion resistances were characterized through various electrochemical tests and compared with those of pure Ni microparts. The results demonstrate that the surface oxidation layer (i.e.,the protective layer) of the microparts was readily destroyed in NaCl and H2SO4 solutions without the formation of a passivation film; however, a passivation film was formed in the NaOH solution. The corrosion rates of graphene/Ni in NaCl, NaOH, and H2SO4 corrosion solutions were reduced by 73%, 22%, and 84%, respectively, relative to those of pure Ni microparts. This can be primarily attributed to the homogeneous dispersion of graphene in the Ni matrix, which refined the grain size, and the impermeability and chemical stability of graphene, which lengthened the diffusion path of the corrosive medium. In addition, heat treatment of the graphene/Ni microparts at 200 °C increased the corrosion resistance by a factor of nearly one with little change in microhardness, which can be attributed to the removal of internal stress and the increased proportion of CSL grain boundares. Corrosion occurred at the interface between nickel and graphene, lengthening the corrosion path.
