Optimization for the Process Parameters of Nickel–Titanium Nitride Composites Fabricated via Jet Pulse Electrodeposition

The corrosion resistance of nickel–titanium nitride (Ni/TiN) composites is significantly influenced by the operation parameters during the jet pulse electrodeposition (JPE) process. The effect of current density, jet rate, TiN concentration, and duty cycle impact on the anti-corrosion property of Ni...

description The corrosion resistance of nickel–titanium nitride (Ni/TiN) composites is significantly influenced by the operation parameters during the jet pulse electrodeposition (JPE) process. The effect of current density, jet rate, TiN concentration, and duty cycle impact on the anti-corrosion property of Ni/TiN composites were investigated and optimized using the response surface method (RSM). After the optimization of the operation parameters, the corrosion current of Ni/TiN composites decreased from 9.52 × 10<sup>−5</sup> A/cm<sup>2</sup> to 4.63 × 10<sup>−5</sup> A/cm<sup>2</sup>. The corrosion current of Ni/TiN composites decreased initially and then increased with an increase in current density, jet rate, TiN concentration, and duty cycle. During the jet electrodeposition process, the influence of the duty cycle on the corrosion current of Ni/TiN composites was comparatively insignificant, whereas the concentration of TiN had a significant effect on the corrosion current. The error rate between the predicted value and the measured result from the corrosion current of Ni/TiN composites was only 0.64%, indicating the high accuracy of fitting the model. Furthermore, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images revealed that the optimized Ni/TiN composites comprised significant Ti content, fine nickel gain, and a compact, smooth structure. In addition, the electrochemical measured results demonstrated that the optimized Ni/TiN composites possessed a low self-corrosion current and high self-corrosion potential. These findings show that the optimized composites have a substantially greater corrosion resistance compared to two other unoptimized Ni/TiN composites.
