Electro-Chemical Deposited Cu-Ni Binary and Cu-Ni-Mn Ternary Alloys from Sulphate Bath for Anti-Corrosive Coating Applications in Brine Environment: Effect of Corrosion Behaviour, Polarization Studies, Morphological and Structural Characterizations

Article Preview

Abstract:

Electrochemical preparation of binary alloy of Cu-Ni from acid sulphate bath containing citric acid using Potentiostatic method. The effects of alloy composition were monitored. Copper is widely used in industry, because of its good thermal conductivity and mechanical characteristics. The accumulation of Nickel & Manganese to Copper enhances itspotency, vigour, toughness, endurance, permanence&also the corrosion-resistanceas well asattrition. Corrosion controls of metal have technical environmental and economical importance. The Cu-Ni-Mn alloyswere used commercially for decorative and protective purpose and also in marine applications. The thin film coating characterized by SEM, EDAX and XRD shows morphological, compositional and structural properties of alloys respectively.
