Abstract

A Co-Pd film was deposited on 316L stainless steel by electroplating. The erosion–corrosion behavior of the Co-Pd plated samples in hot sulfuric acid solution with SiO2 particles was investigated. The results showed that there was a significant synergistic effect between erosion and corrosion. At higher stirring speed, even in such strong corrosive environment the erosion–corrosion rate of Co-Pd plated samples was controlled mainly by the erosion resistance. The erosion–corrosion resistance of pure Pd plated sample decreased rapidly with increasing stirring speed, whereas that of Co-Pd plated sample kept almost stable under the tested conditions due to the high micro-hardness and good corrosion resistance of the film.
