Abstract
The corrosion resistance of chromium-free passivation film with single chromate-free passivation solution to deal with galvanized steel still has a gap compared to chromate passivation. In this experiment, the passivation solution consisting of the inorganic salt as corrosion inhibitor, silane as sealer, water-based epoxy resin and additives which formed a layer of inorganic and organic composite passivation film on galvanized steel through the synergistic effect between inorganic and organic. The morphology and elements of the passivation film was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the corrosion resistance of the composite film was tested by neutral salt spray test (NSS), lead acetate spot test (ASS), tafel polarization curves and AC impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results show that the composite film has a good adhesion and an excellent corrosion resistance, the corrosion area is only 3% after 72h NSS.
