Abstract

A crystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin film on various metal substrates such as hot-dip-galvanized (HDG), electrochemically galvanized (EG) and cold rolled steel (CRS) has been successfully prepared for the first time by simple one-step electrodeposition method from alkaline aqueous solution containing potassium titanium oxalate and hydroxylamine. The as-grown titanium dioxide films are composed of a mixture of anatase, rutile and brookite structures and have a good crystalline state. The present investigation reveals that the electrochemical deposition of crystalline titanium dioxide on different metal substrates from single electrochemical bath is possible and very promising as a preparation method for industrial applications.
