Corrosion of Electroless Nickel-Coated Steel.

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA191045 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The corrosion behavior of electroless nickel-coated steel has been investigated. The effectiveness of electroless nickel as a coating is strongly dependent on the film homogeneity, thickness, and phosphorous content. Defective electroless nickel coatings are detrimental because of galvanic interaction between the coating and the steel substrate. Keywords Electroless plating Pitting Polarization resistance Corrosion resistance.
