Comparative Study of Corrosion Activity of Bright and Matte Nickel Coatings in Solutions and Vapor of Acetic Acid

  • Published:
Materials Science Aims and scope

Corrosion behavior of matte and bright galvanic nickel coatings in solutions and vapor of acetic acid are studied. Corrosion of the corresponding materials in the studied media occurs with oxygen depolarization. The rate of anodic dissolution of bright nickel deposits in acetic acid solutions is higher than that of matte ones, due to the effect of sulfur on the continuity of the passive film on bright nickel deposits and their ability to passivation. Based on EDX and XRD studies, the formation of corrosion products on the surface of bright nickel deposits in the form of nickel acetate and a film of nickel sulfides of variable stoichiometric composition during the exposure in acetic acid solutions and vapor are shown. The stoichiometric composition of sulfide corrosion products changes with increasing sulfur content from Ni3S2 to Ni3S4 under prolonged exposure of the studied bright nickel deposits in vapor or solutions of acetic acid.
