چکیده
The paper discusses optimising work on a method of processing ceramic / metal composite coatings for various applications and is based on preliminary work on processing anodes for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The composite coating is manufactured by the electroless co-deposition of nickel and yttria stabilised zirconia (YSZ) simultaneously on to a ceramic substrate. The effect on coating characteristics of substrate surface treatments and electroless nickel bath parameters such as pH and agitation methods are also investigated. Characterisation of the resulting deposit by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) is also discussed. Keywords—Electroless deposition; nickel; YSZ; composite

The Preparation, Characterization, and Influence of Multiple Electroless Nickel-Phosphorus (Ni-P) Composite Coatings on Poplar Veneer
Nickel-Phosphorus (Ni-P) composite coatings were prepared on a poplar veneer surface via a simple electroless nickel (Ni) approach. The substrate deformation, flatness, crystalline structure, and wear resistance of the NiP composite coatings were investigated. The deformation degree of the substrate decreased as the number of deposition steps was increased. The flatness and wear resistance of t...

متن کاملDevelopment of Antifouling and Corrosion Resistant Coatings for Petrochemical Compressors
Two coatings have been developed for petrochemical compressor antifouling and corrosion resistance purposes. One is a multilayer composite coating with a modified polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) impregnated organic topcoat, which gives it superior antifouling performance to the similar coating that has been used by the compressor original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The other is a high-phosp...
