Abstract

Corrosion resistant black anodic passive film, composed of crystalline ZnO structures, was successfully fabricated on a galvanized surface by room-temperature and low-voltage anodization route using an eco-friendly and cost-effective mixed electrolyte without any surface treatments. In addition, the properties and corrosion resistance of ZnO passive films fabricated by other methods were compared with those of anodic ZnO films. It was found that the anti-corrosive properties of ZnO films were significantly influenced by the chemical composition of the surface, surface roughness and wetting behaviour. Experimental results showed that hydrophilic anodic films (surface energy γ = 17.3 mN/m and adhesion Wst = 70.6 mN/m) could effectively enhance corrosion resistance of galvanized steel. In addition, it was found that film porosity and thickness also played a critical role in the corrosion resistance of anodic ZnO films. The porosity and thickness of the anodic films increased with anodizing time, and a dense anodic film with a thickness of 668 nm was fabricated at 10 V for 30 min in a mixed electrolyte, and this one showed the best corrosion resistance.
