Abstract: | A heat treatment effect on the microstructure and corrosion properties of electrodeposited Zn, Zn-Co, Zn-Fe and Zn-Ni alloy coatings was studied. Surface morphology examinations were carried with AFM, while XRD was used to determine metal lattice parameters, texture and phase composition. Low-temperature annealing (at 225 °C) caused the formation of intermetallic Fe/Zn compounds, a transformation of amorphous oxide inclusions to the crystalline form and a decrease in the Zn lattice parameter for Zn-Co and Zn-Fe alloys. The mentioned structural modifications were not accompanied, however, by corrosion behavior changes of these coatings. On the Zn-Ni alloy, the annealing caused a significant reduction in the diffraction peak width and simultaneous considerable augmentation of the corrosion current. This effect is related to the formation of a less disordered lattice for this alloy.Contribution to the 3rd Baltic Conference on Electrochemistry, GDA SK-SOBIESZEWO, 23–26 APRIL 2003.Dedicated to the memory of Harry B.
