Abstract

This study aims to produce a Co-Ni-Fe alloy coating on a mild steel hollow cylinder shape by electrodeposition process and analyze the effect of different pH on the corrosion performance of the alloy coating. During the electrodeposition process, the temperature and time are set to 50°C and 30 minutes, respectively. Different pH value consisting of pH 2.1 (strong acid), 5.2 (weak acid), 6.9 (neutral), 8.4 (weak alkali) and 12.3 (strong alkali) are used. From the results obtained it was found that the deposited Co-Ni-Fe alloy has excellent corrosion performance. Corrosion rate obtained for strong acid, weak acid, neutral, weak alkali and strong alkali are 5.88 mmpy, 2.95 mmpy, 1.17 mmpy, 2.16 mmpy and 5.72 mmpy, respectively. Hence this studied showed that Co-Ni-Fe coating alloy could be used as an alternative to prevent against corrosion due to its high corrosion resistance as well as high microhardness.
