Abstract
Galvanic coupling technique is capable of producing coatings of desired thickness. Good quality coatings can be produced at low temperature. Galvanic coupling of mild steel (MS) with the other cathode materials such as titanium (Ti), copper (Cu), brass (BR), nickel (Ni), and stainless steel (SS) accelerates iron dissolution, enables quicker consumption of free phosphoric acid and facilitates an earlier attainment of point of incipient precipitation, resulting in a higher amount of coating formation. In the present investigation, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectra on MS substrates phosphated using galvanic coupling arc studied. This study reveals that MS substrates phosphated under galvanically coupled condition possess better corrosion resistance than the substrates phosphated under uncoupled condition.
