Studies and Research on the Corrosion Behavior of Ni-Al2O3 Compound Coatings Obtained by Electrochemical Methods

Abstract

The undertaken research which is described in this paper aims at the corrosion behaviour of composite coatings in nickel matrix using as dispersed phase technical alumina with dimensions of 5 μm and their characterization from a microstructural point of view. The corrosion resistance in the saline fog of the coatings is influenced by the microstructure, the stresses developed in the layer and the roughness.
