It has been found that by increasing the acetic acid/CeCl3·7H2O molar ratio, high uniform and crack-free films with well-developed grains were obtained and grain sizes of the films decreased. Elimination of cracks and decreasing grain size of the nano cerium oxide films caused corrosion resistance to increase.展开更多

The skewness and kurtosis of Gaussian shape distribution curves were studied and the effect of electrolyte temperature was determined. The usage of lower temperatures of the electrolyte is more suitable for achieving lower sizes of complex nano-carbonitrides. The surface roughness of treated samples was measured and it was observed that there is an optimum level of electrolyte temperature for surface roughness increase （difference between two measured data）.展开更多
