Effect of temperature variation on the corrosion behaviour and semiconducting properties of the passive film formed on chromium oxide coatings exposed to saline solution

•RF sputtered chromium oxide coatings were tested in saline solution at a temperature range 25 to 65° C.•The prepared coatings were confirmed to be mainly chromium (III) oxide.•The passive oxide layers on the coatings possess p-type semiconductor property.•The acceptor defect densities and corrosion...

Popis
Shrnutí:•RF sputtered chromium oxide coatings were tested in saline solution at a temperature range 25 to 65° C.•The prepared coatings were confirmed to be mainly chromium (III) oxide.•The passive oxide layers on the coatings possess p-type semiconductor property.•The acceptor defect densities and corrosion of the coatings were found to be temperature dependent.•Coatings tested at lower temperatures showed superior pitting corrosion resistance compared to those tested at higher temperatures. The corrosion behaviour of chromium oxide coatings and semiconducting properties of the passive film formed on the surface of the coated samples when exposed to saline solution at a temperature range 25 °C–65 °C was investigated. The cyclic polarisation results revealed that the coatings tested at a electrolyte temperature range 25 °C–35 °C possess superior resistance to pitting corrosion when compared to coatings tested at higher temperatures. Our Mott-Schottky analysis suggests that this variation in corrosion resistance can be linked to the increase in the amount of the defect density present in the films and enhanced diffusion at higher temperatures.
