Superhydrophobic Surface On Aluminum Alloy By Hydrothermal Method And Its Electrochemical Performance, Xiao-Hang Chen, Mo-Jing Chen, Yu-Lin Min, Qun-Jie Xu

Journal of Electrochemistry

Superhydrophobic film formed on a metal surface is an effective way for corrosion protection. In this paper, the superhydrophobic film was prepared on the surfaces of aluminum alloy by hydrothermally treating with a solution containing CeCl3·7H2O and CO(NH2)2 , and a self-assemble process. The electrochemical measurements and surface morphology results confirmed that the best superhydrophobicity and electrochemical performance could be achieved with the contact angle of 155.5o after six hours of hydrothermal reaction. Furthermore, the inhibition efficiency of 99.6% was obtained in 3.5 wt% NaCl aqueous solution, indicating the excellent corrosion resistance …

Electrodeposition of a metallic aluminum on a magnesium alloy in acidic aluminum chloride-1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquids(AlCl3-EMIC) was investigated.The effects of current density and AlCl3 content in the ionic liquid on the electrodeposition behavior were studied.The results showed that aluminum could be successfully electrodeposited on the AZ91D substrate.At-0.2 V,the ionic liquid containing 60 m/o AlCl3 was optimum for Al electrodeposition.The current efficiency was higher if electrodeposition was performed at a lower applied current density.The existence of Al coating could caused a substantial increase in open circuit potential,reducing the susceptibility of Mg alloy to corrosion.The results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that …

With KOH as precipitator to prepare Aluminum doped Co3O4,X-ray diffraction indicated that the doping Al did not change the crystal structure of Co3O4.Electrochemical properties of the sample were tested by cyclic voltammetry and constant-current charge/discharge.The results showed that the chemical doping improved the specific capacitance.When the mol ratio of Co(Ⅱ) with Al(Ⅲ)was 1∶0.05,the specific capacitance was up to 518.07 F/g within 0~400 mV potenitial at current density 5 mA/cm2.
