Abstract
In the present study, the effect of ultrasonic shot peening (USSP) on electrodeposited Ni/Ni-TiO2 coatings on mild steel substrate was analyzed in terms of surface-mechanical and electrochemical properties. USSP was performed on the Ni/Ni-TiO2 coatings surface deposited mainly from Watt baths with varying peening vibrational amplitude and peening time, and the resulting hybrid coating was analyzed using XRD, SEM, microhardness, scratch test, and corrosion analysis. The XRD analysis revealed a prominent texturing effect and residual compressive stress, which resulted in changes in surface-mechanical and corrosion properties. SEM morphology revealed pore closure following USSP, as well as a positive effect at the coating interface. Surface roughness and dimple size also had an impact on the properties. Microhardness and scratch results showed improvement after peening. The noticeable effect of peening was observed during a corrosion study using potentiodynamic polarization and EIS analysis.
