Structural evolution, optoelectrical and corrosion properties of electrodeposited WO3 integration on Zn-TiO2 electrolyte for defence super application

Multifunctional nano composite coatings of Zn-TiO2-WO3 were deposited electrolytically on mild steel (MS) from Zn bath, having Zn2+ ions and uniform dispersion of TiO2 and WO3 nano particulates. The electrical, optical and corrosion resistance characteristics of the electrocodeposited coatings were...
