Abstract:Zinc alloys are used in very wide industrial applications due to their excellent physical and mechanical properties. To improve the corrosion resistance, anodizing process is used. Anodizing of Zinc Alloy ZA12 is investigated in 1 M H2SO4 solution for 10, 20 30,40 and 50 mins at a constant voltage of 5V. Atomic force microscope (AFM) used to study the surface roughness of the anodic film. The results show that the surface roughness of anodic film is primarily depending on the anodizing time and coating average… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
