Abstract

The three-dimensional ion implantation technique (3DII) is an alternative to the material surface treatment which is used to mitigate the corrosion effect in low carbon steels exposed to aggressive media. In this work, the behavior of the surfaces of AISI SAE 1020 steel modified with titanium ions in respect to corrosion is studied by using electrochemical techniques. A considerable  decrease  in  the  corrosion  rate  of  the  implanted  samples  compared  to  the  non-implanted  samples  is demonstrated. Thus an effective mechanism for the steel protection against deteriorations in aggressive media is found.
