Özet:

In this study, manganese (Mn) and strontium (Sr) were doped into TiO2 nanotubes (TNT), which are frequently used in energy storage equipment. The aim of this study is to compare the corrosion tribocorrosion and cyclic voltammetry performances of doped TNTs after examining their structural characteristics. XRD and SEM were used to characterize the nanotubes. After the anodization processes, the inclusion of Mn and Sr in the TNT structure was confirmed by XRD analysis. In SEM analysis, it was observed that with the addition of Mn and Sr into the solution, longer nanotubes were formed with increased electrical conductivity. Increasing the nanotube length and shrinking the nanotube's inner diameter provided increased corrosion resistance. Increased surface hardness resulted in increased tribocorrosion resistance. In cyclic voltammetry experiments, the capacitance increased approximately 5 times in Sr-doped TNT compared to undoped TNT, while it increased 10 times in Mn-doped TNT.
