Electrodeposited Mn-Sn-X Alloys for Corrosion Protection Coatings

Abstract

This project seeks to develop novel, low cost, and environmentally benign electrodeposition processes for the production of alloy coatings based on Mn and/or Sn, which combine high corrosion protection performance, good tribological behavior, and suitable mechanical properties, that would thus constitute realistic alternatives to cadmium. On the basis of the discussion in section 1, we are seeking in particular to study in detail the electrodeposition of Sn-Mn and Cu-Mn binary alloys. The microstructure, chemical, electrochemical and physical properties, tribological and mechanical characteristics, as well as corrosion resistance of these coatings are also investigated.
