Item 3-Methyl-4-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole as corrosion inhibitor for 6061 Al alloy in 0.5 M sodium hydroxide solution(Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2011) Kumari, P.D.R.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.3-Methyl-4-amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole (MAMT) was synthesized, and its inhibition action on the corrosion of 6061 Al alloy in 0.5 M sodium hydroxide was investigated by means of potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. The effect of inhibitor concentration, temperature, and concentration of the corrosion medium on the inhibitor action was investigated. The surface morphology of the metal surface was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The inhibition efficiency increased with the increase in the concentration of the inhibitor, but decreased with the increase in temperature. Both thermodynamic and kinetic parameters were calculated and discussed. The adsorption of MAMT on the base alloy was found to be through physisorption, obeying Langmuir's adsorption isotherm. The results obtained from both the techniques were in good agreement with each other. © 2011 ACA and OCCA.Item 3,4-Dimethoxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone as corrosion inhibitor for aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid(2011) Poornima, T.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.The corrosion inhibition of the aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.5 M sulfuric acid by 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehydethiosemicarbazone(DMBTSC) has been investigated by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) techniques. The inhibition efficiency increased with the increase in inhibitor concentration and decreased with the increase in temperature. Polarization curves indicated mixed type inhibition behavior affecting both cathodic and anodic corrosion currents. The thermodynamic parameters of corrosion and adsorption processes were evaluated. The adsorption of DMBTSC on the aged maraging steel surface was found to obey the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model, and the calculated Gibb's free energy values confirm the spontaneous adsorption. The results obtained by the two techniques were in good agreement. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.Item Effect of 4-(N,N-diethylamino)benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone on the corrosion of aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in phosphoric acid solution(2011) Poornima, T.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.4-(N,N-diethylamino)benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (DEABT) was studied for its corrosion inhibition property on the corrosion of aged 18 Ni 250 grade maraging steel in 0.67M phosphoric acid at 30-50°C by potentiodynamic polarization, EIS and weight loss techniques. Inhibition efficiency of DEABT was found to increase with the increase in DEABT concentration and decrease with the increase in temperature. The activation energy Ea and other thermodynamic parameters (?Gads0, ?Hads0, ?Sads0) have been evaluated and discussed. The adsorption of DEABT on aged maraging steel surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model and the inhibitor showed mixed type inhibition behavior. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.Item The corrosion inhibition of maraging steel under weld aged condition by 1(2E)-1-(4-Aminophenyl)-3-(2-Thienyl)prop-2-en-1-one in 1.5 M hydrochloric acid medium(Springer New York LLC barbara.b.bertram@gsk.com, 2012) Sanatkumar, B.S.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.The influence of 1(2E)-1-(4-Aminophenyl)- 3-(2-Thienyl)prop-2-en-1-one (ATPI) on the corrosion behavior of weld aged maraging steel in 1.5 M hydrochloric acid was studied by potentiodynamic polarization method and AC impedance (EIS) technique at different temperatures. The results showed that the inhibition efficiency of ATPI increased with the increase in the concentration of inhibitor and decreased with the increase in temperature. ATPI acts as a mixed type inhibitor without affecting the mechanism of the hydrogen evolution reaction or iron dissolution. The adsorption of ATPI on a weld aged maraging steel surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm equation. Both activation and thermodynamic parameters were calculated and discussed. ATPI inhibits the corrosion through both physisorption and chemisorption on the alloy surface. The surface morphology of the weld aged maraging steel specimens in the presence and the absence of the inhibitors was studied by the respective SEM images. © ACA and OCCA 2011.Item Influence of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-oxoethyl benzoate on the hydrogen evolution and corrosion inhibition of 18 Ni 250 grade weld aged maraging steel in 1.0 M sulfuric acid medium(2012) Sanatkumar, B.S.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.N.Electrochemical corrosion behavior and hydrogen evolution reaction of weld aged maraging steel have been investigated, in 1.0 M sulfuric acid solution containing different concentrations of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-oxoethyl benzoate (CPOB). The data obtained from polarization technique showed that the corrosion current density (i corr) and the hydrogen evolution rate decrease, indicating a decrease in the corrosion rate of weld aged maraging steel as well as an increase in the inhibition efficiency (?%) with the increase in inhibitor concentration. Changes in impedance parameters were indicative of adsorption of CPOB on the metal surface, leading to the formation of protective film. Both activation (E a) and thermodynamic parameters (?G ads 0, ?H ads 0 and ?S ads 0) were calculated and discussed. The adsorption of CPOB on the weld aged maraging steel surface obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) study confirmed the formation of an adsorbed protective film on the metal surface. © 2012, Hydrogen Energy Publications, LLC.

Electrochemical measurements were carried out using the potentiodynamic polarization technique and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results showed an increase in the corrosion rate with the increases in temperature as well with increase in the concentration of the corrosion medium. The results obtained from the Tafel extrapolation technique and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were in good agreement. Activation parameters were evaluated using the Arrhenius equation and transition state equation. The surface morphology of the corroded specimen was compared with that of the un-corroded sample by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.Item Corrosion behavior of 6061/Al-15 vol. pct. SiC(p) composite and the base alloy in sodium hydroxide solution(Elsevier B.V., 2016) Reena Kumari, P.D.; Nayak, J.; Nityananda Shetty, A.The corrosion behavior of 6061/Al-15 vol. pct. SiC(p) composite and 6061 Al base alloy was investigated in a sodium hydroxide solution. The electrochemical parameters were derived from potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic (EIS) techniques. The results showed that the corrosion resistance of the composite was lower than that of the base alloy in selected corrosion media. The corrosion rates of both the composite and the base alloy increased with the increase in the concentration of sodium hydroxide and also with the increase in temperature. The surface morphology of the metal surface was investigated using scanning electron microscope (SEM). Activation energy was evaluated using Arrhenius equation, and enthalpy of activation and entropy of activation values were calculated using transition state equation. © 2012Item Electrochemical Corrosion and Impedance Studies of Porous Ti–xNb–Ag Alloy in Physiological Solution(Springer, 2020) Shivaram, M.J.; Arya, S.B.; Nayak, J.; Panigrahi, B.B.Porous titanium (Ti) and its alloys are promising materials for orthopedic applications due to their low elastic modulus, high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. In this study, the porous Ti–xNb–5Ag (x = 25, 30 and 35 wt%) alloys were synthesized using the powder metallurgy approach. The effects of Nb content on the porosity, mechanical properties, and electrochemical corrosion behavior of the alloys were investigated. XRD analysis revealed that the porous alloys mainly consist of ?-Ti, ?-Ti, intermetallic compound (Ti4Nb), and oxides of TiO2 and NbO phases. Porous alloys possess the porosity ranging from 57 to 65%, due to the addition of NH4HCO3 (45 wt%). Increase in Nb content lead to a reduction in the elastic modulus and compression strengths of the sintered porous Ti–xNb–5Ag alloys. All three developed porous Ti–xNb–5Ag alloys show the optimum combination of elastic modulus and compression strength, which is suitable for orthopedic applications. These porous alloys exhibit excellent electrochemical corrosion resistance in the simulated body fluids, and the samples having low porosity exhibit higher corrosion resistance than high-porosity samples. © 2020, The Indian Institute of Metals - IIM.Item Compositionally Modulated Multilayered Zn-Co Deposits for Better Corrosion Resistance(Springer, 2020) Bhat, R.S.; Venkatakrishna, K.; Nayak, J.; Hegde, A.C.Zn-Co compositionally modulated multilayer alloy (CMMA) deposits have been developed onto mild steel using single bath technique. Multilayer alloy coatings have been galvanostatically produced using square current pulses. The switched cathode current density and number of layers have been designed for improved corrosion resistance. Experimental data revealed that multilayer coating with 120 layers at 10/30 mA/cm2 demonstrated ~ 125 times higher resistance to corrosion than monolayer alloy coating of the same thickness. The improved corrosion resistance of multilayer coatings is due to small changes in the wt.% cobalt, leading to change in the phase structure of deposit in alternate layers. The defects and failures occurring in a single layer in the deposition process are covered by the alternatively deposited coating layers. Therefore, the direction of the corrosive agent is extended or blocked. Further, the better corrosion resistances afforded by Zn-Co CMMA coatings were explained through changes in electronic properties at the interface, supported by Mott-Schottky’s plot. However, the decrease of corrosion resistance at a high degree of layering is attributed to the less relaxation time for redistribution of solutes in the diffusion layer, during plating. Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance data showed its good protection ability. The enhanced corrosion resistance of multilayered deposits is due to small change in cobalt content, leading to alter the phase structure of the alternate-layers of the deposits. The structural morphology and the topographical structure of the coating were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Evaluation of the chemical composition of the alloy coatings was carried out by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. © 2020, ASM International.Item Tribocorrosion Behaviour of Biomedical Porous Ti–20Nb–5Ag Alloy in Simulated Body Fluid(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021) Shivaram, M.J.; Arya, S.; Nayak, J.; Panigrahi, B.B.Porous Ti–20Nb–5Ag (wt.%) alloy was developed using powder metallurgy (PM) route with the porosity of 43% after sintering in a high vacuum atmosphere. The microstructure of the porous alloy revealed various micro, macro and interconnected pores with an average pore size of about 114 µm. Tribocorrosion behaviour of the porous alloy was examined in simulated body fluid under the various applied load of 1–10 N using DC electrochemical corrosion technique and kinetic parameters (corrosion potential, corrosion current density and breakdown potentials). After tribocorrosion test, the OCP values decreased from 0.17 to ? 0.49 VSCE as applied load was increased. The potentiodynamic polarization results revealed that the corrosion potential decreased, while corrosion current density increased under higher applied loads. Active–passive transition plots showed metastable passivity due to severe fluctuations of passive current density. After tribocorrosion, the surface morphology was analysed using SEM, and it exhibited the severity of wear tracks at higher applied loads. The results indicated that the developed porous Ti–20Nb–5Ag alloys exhibit better tribocorrosion properties in simulated body fluid. Through observations of SEM images of the worn surfaces, the visible scratches and deep grooves were observed along the sliding direction, indicating a predominant abrasive mechanism. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
