Abstract:Resistivity and passivation behavior of two Ni-base bulk metallic glasses, with the nominal composition of Ni 70 Cr 21 Si 0.5 B 0.5 P 8 C ≤ 0.1Co ≤ 1Fe ≤ 1 (VZ1) and Ni 72.65 Cr 7.3 -Si 6.7 B 2.15 C ≤ 0.06Fe 8.2 Mo 3 (VZ2), in various concentrations of NaOH solutions were studied. The investigations involved cyclic polarization (CP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM) methods. Cyclic polarization measurements showed spontaneous passivation for both Ni-b… 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.
