Photo-electrochemical investigation of anodic oxide films on cast Ti–Mo alloys. I. Anodic behaviour and effect of alloy composition
2009
Abstract The anodic behaviour of cast Ti–Mo alloys, having different Mo contents (6–20 wt.%), was investigated in acidic and neutral aerated aqueous solutions. All sample showed a valve-metal behaviour, owing to formation and thickening of barrier-type anodic oxides displaying interference colours. Growth kinetics of passive films is influenced by both anodizing electrolyte and composition of the starting alloy. This last parameter was found to change also the solid-state properties of the films, explored by photoelectrochemical and impedance spectroscopy experiments. Thicker films ( U f = 8 V/MSE) grown on alloys richer in Mo showed more resistive character and a photocurrent sign inversi…
Electrochemically-induced TiO2 incorporation for enhancing corrosion and tribocorrosion resistance of PEO coating on 7075 Al alloy
2018
Abstract 7075 Al alloy was PEO-treated in a silicate based electrolyte containing 3 g l-1 potassium titanyl oxalate using unipolar and bipolar pulsed current waveforms. The coating formed by the bipolar waveform with the wider cathodic pulses showed volcano-like surface morphology with no evidence of large pores at the metal/coating interface. It revealed the highest corrosion performance due to the synergistic effect of TiO2 incorporation and structural/morphological features along with a better passivation behavior indicating no pitting susceptibility. For this coating, the tribocorrosion tests showed no potential drop during sliding under 1 N with the lowest volume loss of 0.022 mm3.

Structural and compositional analysis of anodic films on Al-Nb sputter-deposited alloys
2006
The photoelectrochemical behavior of anodic films on Al alloys, containing titanium, tantalum, and tungsten (valve metals), has been studied as a function of alloy composition and anodizing conditions. Photocurrent spectroscopy has been used to get information on bandgap and the flatband potential values of different mixed oxides. Both insulator-like and semiconducting behavior has been observed for anodic oxides grown on Al-W and Al-Ti alloys dependent on alloy initial composition. Optical bandgap values, Eg,opt, of different oxides are in accordance with predictions based on the correlation between Eg,opt and the difference of electronegativities of the oxide constituents, indicating pote…
The effect of thickness on the composition of passive films on a Ti–50Zr at% alloy
2006
Abstract Anodic films were grown potentiodynamically in different electrolytes (pH = 1–14) on a Ti–50Zr at% cast alloy, obtained by fusion in a voltaic arc under argon atmosphere. The thickness of the films was varied by changing formation potential from the open circuit potential up to about 9 V; growth was followed by 30 min stabilization at the forming potential. Films having different thicknesses were characterized by photocurrent spectroscopy (PCS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Moreover, film composition was analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Regardless of the anodizing conditions, passive films on the Ti–50Zr at% alloy consist of a single layer mix…
