Improvement of AZ91 Alloy Corrosion Properties by Duplex NI-P Coating Deposition.

The corrosion behavior of duplex Ni-P coatings deposited on AZ91 magnesium alloy was studied. The electroless deposition process of duplex Ni-P coating consisted in the preparation of low-phosphorus Ni-P coating (5.7 wt.

Comparison of Electrochemical Methods for the Evaluation of Cast AZ91 Magnesium Alloy.

Linear polarization is a potentiodynamic method used for electrochemical characterization of materials. Obtained values of corrosion potential and corrosion current density offer information about material behavior in corrosion environments from the thermodynamic and kinetic points of view, respectively. The present study offers a comparison of applications of the linear polarization method (from -100 mV to +200 mV vs.
