Abstract

In this study, the effect of electrophoretic voltage changes on Ni—Al2O3 nano-composite coating via two step process electrophoretic, and electrochemically on 1100 Al substrate on morphology, corrosion and wear behaviour were studied. In the first step of deposition for determining the optimum amount of Teri Ethanol Amin activator in electrophoretic suspension Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) was used. The amount of alumina particles, Nickel ions in the coating and morphology were studied by Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and Field-Emission Electron Microscopy (FESEM). Nanoparticles distribute more homogenous in deposit within using 40 V voltage. Corrosion behaviour of coating was investigated by polarization technique in 3.5 wt % NaCl which shows a decrease in corrosion current from 13.7 μA/cm2 to 1.46 μA/cm2 versus bare sample.
