Lp. Kornienko et al., ELECTROCHEMICAL AND CORROSIVE BEHAVIOR OF INTERMETALLIC PHASES WITH COMPOSITION TI2PD AND TIPD AND TITANIUM WITH ELECTROSPARK PALLADIUM COATINGS, Protection of metals, 29(3), 1993, pp. 286-292
We studied the corrosion rates of titanium and palladium electrodes, a
nd also of titanium and palladium from the intermetallic phases Ti2Pd
and TiPd in the anodic and cathodic ranges and at the corrosion potent
ial in 10% H2SO4 at 100 degrees C. The results enabled us to shed ligh
t on the mechanism of the protective action of electrospark palladium
coatings on titanium.
