Ni-P-BN composite coatings were successfully obtained on low carbon steel by the electroless plating technique. Deposits were characterized by the X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive analysis. The hardness and microstructure of as plated and heat treated Ni-P and Ni-P-BN composites were analyzed. Change in microstructure and higher hardness was noticed for the heattreated composite. The corrosion resistance of as plated and heat treated Ni-P and Ni-P-BN coatings was investigated by the Tafel plots and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies in 3.5 wt % NaCl. The heat-treated composite coatings exhibited enhanced corrosion resistance over that of Ni-P coatings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
