Various types of zinc-rich coatings are available for corrosion protection. The challenges associated with the proper specification and application of zinc-rich coatings are briefly discussed. The paper then focuses on data from various studies, which quantify the corrosion protection benefits of various types of zinc-rich coatings. ZINC RICH COATING TECHNOLOGIES Zinc-rich coatings are used by ...

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...

a constant problem in the production, maintenance, and use of agricultural pesticides, is their physical-chemical corrosive properties in contact with machines and equipment. the present study attempted to increase the corrosion resistance of steel parts to agricultural pesticide with the application of appropriate thin tio2 nanoparticle coatings. this coating was applied on mild steel coupons ...

Rotating bending fatigue tests have been performed to evaluate the corrosion fatigue performance and its influence factors of 7075-T7351 Al alloy in different media, namely air and a 5.0 wt % NaCl aqueous solution. All samples were coated by microarc oxidation (MAO) coating technology; some samples were followed by an epoxy resin pore-sealing treatment. Microscopic analyses of the surfaces and ...

Abstract The protective bronze film was prepared by mixing the reaction product of oligosaccharide (COS) and modified tannic acid (TA) with polyvinyl alcohol polyethylene glycol. Chloroacetic to carboxylate TA used generate sodium tannate. N,N’-Dicyclohexylcarbodiumide (DCC)/1-Hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) as a condensing agent form an amide bond between carboxylic amine COS-TA. synthesized chara...

In this research, the effect of PEO procedure time on the distinct properties of coatings such as morphology, chemical composition, roughness and corrosion has been studied. A scanning electron microscopy equipped with an energy dispersive spectroscopy was used to study the microstructure of the coatings. In addition, x-ray diffraction (XRD) and roughness meter were used to evaluate the chemica...

a series of tialon coatings were synthesized in a gaseous mixture of argon, nitrogen and oxygen by cathodic arc evaporation method using a ti–al mosaic target. oxidation of coatings was carried out by heating the coated samples at the temperatures of 500, 600, 700, and 800°c for 1 h in air atmosphere. it was found that heat treatment changed the microstructure and composition of the coating. th...

In order to improve the corrosion and wear resistance of biomedical Ti-6Al-4V implants, a Ta₂N nanoceramic coating was synthesized on a Ti-6Al-4V substrate by the double glow discharge plasma process. The Ta₂N coating, composed of fine nanocrystals, with an average grain size of 12.8 nm, improved the surface hardness of Ti-6Al-4V and showed good contact damage tolerance and good adhesion streng...

the direct synthesis of polyaniline-tio2 nanocomposite coatings on aluminum alloy 3004 (aa3004) surface has been investigated by using the galvanostatic method. the synthesized coatings were characterized by ft-ir, sem-edx, sem and afm. optical absorption spectroscopy reveals the formation of the emeraldine oxidation state form of polyaniline-tio2 nanocomposite. the corrosion performances of po...
