Corrosion Resistance of NiS, ZnS and NiS/ZnS Thin Films Deposited by Spray Pyrolysis Technique on Low Carbon Steel in 3.5% Nacl Solution

Abstract

In this work, the main object of this research is to investigate a new material based on ZnS and NiS nanostructures. NiS and ZnS solutions were sprayed on the heated Low Carbon Steel by a spray pneumatic deposition method. Electrochemical analyses of the prepared samples were investigated. The high corrosion resistance of coated by ZnS sample have a low value of surface roughness. However, the coated sample by ZnS also has good stabilization after corrosion and high compact of the film.
