Abstract
The Ni-P and Ni-P-polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coatings with various PTFE contents were electroless deposited on carbon steel and characterized through X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The microstructural morphologies of the coatings significantly varied with the PTFE content. As a result, the electrochemical anticorrosion capabilities were seriously decreased with the increase of the PTFE content. The coating with a trace PTFE (PTFE emulsion concentration of 0.2Â mL/L in the plating bath) possessed excellent anticorrosion both in sterilized and unsterilized seawater which has been attributed to the absence of nano pores blocked by the incorporated trace PTFE nano particles.
