Abstract
The trajectory challenge of defense component in service is basically as a result of fallout in both structural, plastic deformation, and corrosion vulnerability. In an attempt to address this catastrophe, Zn-SiO2 composite films were produced on mild steel substrate by electro-deposition route from zinc-based sulfate solutions in the presence Al6O13Si2 particle. The thin film coating was investigated using scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM/EDS). The anti-corrosion behavior in 3.65% NaCl medium was studied using potentiodynamic polarization technique and characterized by high resolution optical microscope (HR-OPM). The wear and the hardness properties of the composite coatings were measured with high diamond microhardness tester and reciprocating sliding tester respectively. Experimental results show that co-deposited Al6O13Si2 particle provides new orientation of metal matrix and modified the surface structure which contributed maximally to 80% increase in hardness and 40% increase in wear resistance. More so, increase in anti-corrosion property of all the deposits fabricated is attributed to the formation of new surface evolution. This result attested to the fact that this component is suitable for defense application.
