Abstract
The morphology and composition of the Ni-P-SiO2 and Ni-P-CeO2 electroless c omposite coatings were investigated by SEM, XPS, and AES. The surfaces of t he coatings are homogeneous, polished, and with strong corrosion resistance . For the Ni-P-SiO2 coating, the atomic percentages are Ni: 74.6%, P: 12.4% , Si: 2.77%, Fe: 2.32%, and O: 6.65%, and the compositions are Ni-P: 93.5%, SiO2: 3.27%, FeO: 1.56%, and Fe: 1.33%.
