Abstract

A novel electroless method was developed to deposit corrosion resistant silica coatings. Process parameters such as bath temperature, concentration of sodium silicate and sodium borohydride were optimized based on the uniformity and corrosion resistance of the final deposit obtained. Accelerated corrosion tests as per ASTM B117 standards show corrosion performance comparable to that of chrome passivates.
