Resumen:
Ni-W nanostructured coatings on steel obtained by galvanostatic pulse technique were functionalized by tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) in a two-step procedure. A silica rich-layer is formed by the reaction of TEOS with the metal coating surface oxides which allows a further reaction with OTS forming a hydrocarbon-silica outer network. This mixed silane layer confers hydrophobicity and improves the corrosion behavior of the Ni-W surface coatings without modifying their excellent mechanical properties
