The paper presents results of studies on the impact of bismuth and tin additions to the Zn-AlNi bath on microstructure and corrosion resistance of hot dip galvanizig coatings. The structure at high magnifications on the top surface and cross-section of coatings received in the Zn-AlNiBiSn bath was revealed and the microanalysis EDS (energy dispersion spectroscopy) of chemical composition was determined. The corrosion resistance of the coatings was tested relatively in a neutral salt spray test (NSS), and tests in a humid atmosphere containing SO. Electrochemical parameters of coatings corrosion were determined. It was found that Zn-AlNiBiSn coatings show lower corrosion resistance in comparison with the coatings received in the Zn-AlNi bath without Sn and Bi alloying additions. Structural research has shown the existence of precipitations of Sn-Bi alloy in the coating. It was found that Sn-Bi precipitations have more electropositive potential in relation to zinc, which promotes the formation of additional corrosion cells.
本文介绍了向Zn-AlNi镀液中添加铋和锡对热浸镀锌涂层微观结构和耐蚀性影响的研究结果。揭示了在Zn-AlNiBiSn镀液中获得的涂层顶面和横截面在高倍放大下的结构,并通过能谱分析(EDS)确定了化学成分的微观分析。通过中性盐雾试验(NSS)对涂层的耐蚀性进行了相对测试,并在含有SO的潮湿气氛中进行了测试。测定了涂层腐蚀的电化学参数。结果发现,与未添加锡和铋合金的Zn-AlNi镀液中获得的涂层相比,Zn-AlNiBiSn涂层的耐蚀性较低。结构研究表明涂层中存在Sn-Bi合金沉淀。研究发现,Sn-Bi沉淀相对于锌具有更正的电位,这促进了额外腐蚀电池的形成。
