Abstract
A study was made into the morphology, composition, and electrochemical and mechanical properties of protective composite coatings on various aluminum alloys, including those doped with Sc, Cu, and Ni. It was established that protective coatings significantly increase the corrosion resistance of the alloys in a 3% NaCl solution. Composite coatings produced by triple dip coating in an superdispersed polytetrafluoroethylene suspension have unique corrosion-resistance properties, reducing the corrosion current density for all the protected alloys to 3.1 × 10–11–4.0 × 10–12 A/cm2, which is more than three orders of magnitude lower than that for coatings formed by plasma electrolytic oxidation and five orders of magnitude lower than that for alloys without coating.
