Abstract

Manganese phosphate conversion coatings were prepared on 65Mn spring steel. The surface morphologies and compositions of the coatings were examined through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The corrosion resistance of the coatings was investigated using a copper sulfate titration experiment, salt spray test and electrochemical corrosion test. The results showed that a uniform and dense coating was obtained when the acid ratio was 10, the phosphating temperature was 85 °C, and the phosphating time was 5 min. There was no obvious rust on the manganese phosphate coating surface after 48 h of salt spray. Ultimately, the growth mechanism and corrosion behavior of the manganese phosphate conversion coating are explained.
