Performance tests of multi-metal zincate solutions with zinc sulfate and zinc oxide

摘要

Morphology of zinc alloy layer,from zincate solution with zinc sulfate and zinc oxide respectively,together with the consequent deposit was observed with SEM and back scattering electron image.EDS was applied to analyze the components of zinc alloy layer and the interface of high-Si aluminum alloy substrate-zinc alloy-deposit.Besides,the surface morphology of the zincated aluminum alloy after immersing in 3.5% NaCl solution for 7 d,is observed and the corrosion rate was calculate.Finally,tension test is conducted to quantify the adhesion between high-Si aluminum cast substrate and the deposit.The results show that,the zinc oxide contained zincating solution with sodium potassium tartrate and sodium citrate is a better one in multi-metal zincating solutions.The zinc alloy layer from this one gets stable performance,perfect adhesion with deposit,and good corrosion resistance.
