Obtaining and Characterization of Zirconium and Cerium Coatings

Article Preview

Abstract:

Some metals prior to receiving a layer of paint should be submitted to a treatment of metal surface, since they are subjected to corrosion. This work aims the obtaining and characterization of a coating based on ceramics of cerium and / or zirconium for metal surfaces treatment. The ceramics were obtained by immersing the aluminum alloy 3003 and the carbon steel (SAE 1010) in the polymeric resin of citric acid and ethylene glycol according to the Pechini method. The characterization of the samples was performed using the following techniques: scanning electron microscopy (SEM), open circuit potential (OCP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and Potentiodynamic Anodic Polarization (PAP). It was confirmed that the coatings of cerium and / or zirconium presented themselves as promise in the treatment of metal surfaces, because both showed good resistance, protecting the metal from corrosion.
