Evaluation of the corrosion resistance of electroless Ni-P and Ni-P composite coatings by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy

Abstract: Electroless Ni-P composite coatings have gained a good deal of popularity and acceptance in recent years as they provide considerable improvement of desirable qualities such as hardness, wear, abrasion resistance, etc. The disagreement among researchers on the corrosion behaviour of these coatings warrants a thorough investigation. Among the various techniques available for the determination of corrosion resistance, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is considered to be superior as it provides not on… Show more

“…By reacting with water, hypophosphite ions are formed according to equation (1). The adsorbed hypophosphite layer has a blocking action on the coated surface, preventing nickel hydration due to a limited water supply which is reported to be the initial stage for the formation of soluble Ni 2+ or a nickel passive layer 41,42 .…”

“…[8][9][10][11][12] In general, electroless Ni-P is a barrier coating, protecting the substrate by sealing it off from the corrosive environments, rather than by sacrificial action. The high resistance is a result of the amorphous nature and passivity of the Ni-P deposits.…”

“…Amorphous alloys offer better corrosion resistance to corrosion attack than equivalent polycrystalline materials because of the freedom from grain or grain boundaries and because of the glassy film, which form on and passivate their surfaces. [8][9][10][11][12] It is evident from literature reports on Ni-P coatings that preferential dissolution of nickel occurs at open circuit potential, leading to the enrichment of phosphorus on the surface layer. The enriched phosphorus surface reacts with water to form a layer of adsorbed hypophosphite anions (H 2 PO 2 -).…”

“…Phosphorus present on the coated surface plays a vital role in corrosion resistance. An EN composite coating with higher phosphorus content shows excellent corrosion resistance, as the phosphide particles enables preferential hydrolysis of phosphorus over nickel [20]. The composite coating deposited using sol-gel technique has excellent corrosion resistance compared to conventional composite coatings and Ni-P coatings [21].…”
