Abstract

The effect of zirconia and zirconia-polyester glycol hybrid coatings on the corrosion resistance of mechanically polished or anodized AISI 316 stainless steel (316L), was studied by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 0.1 M NaCl and scanning electron microscope and atomic force microscopy examinations. The deposition of zirconia coatings was achieved by the sol–gel technique by immersing the samples in either the inorganic polymer or the organic–inorganic polymer mixture. From potentiodynamic and impedance measurements, the grade of protection is reduced with the exposure time to the electrolyte, which is mainly associated with lost of film adhesion and, consequently, detachment from the metal substrate. However, the uncoated anodized sample revealed an unexpected corrosion behavior; the anodic film formed during anodizing readily increased the corrosion resistance of the 316L stainless steel in 0.1 M NaCl, revealing a considerable reduction in the corrosion current density and an increase in the pitting potential.
