In this paper, rotating bending fatigue tests of 2024-T4 Al alloy with different oxide coatings were carried out. Compared to the uncoated and previously reported oxide coatings of aluminum alloys, the fatigue strength is able to be enhanced by using a novel oxide coating with sealing pore technology. These results indicate that the better the coating surface quality is, the more excellent the ...

This paper is concerned with the investigation of the capability of Detonation sprayed Ni-Cr And Al2O3 13TiO2 coatings to improve the tribological and mechanical properties of grey cast iron. The present study describes and compares the mechanical and tribological properties of NiCr and Al2O3 13TiO2 D-Sprayed coatings deposited on two different substrates (GI250 and GIHC) Experiments using a tr...

Hot dip aluminizing was carried out on the low carbon steel rod under optimized conditions. The aluminized samples were further oxidized at 1000̊C in air atmosphere at two different times of 20 and 60 minutes. Microstructure study and phase analysis were studied by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction methods, respectively. The characterization of the coating showed that, Fe2...

Abstract: activity gas diffusion process has been investigated in this research. Effects of coating temperature and aluminumconcentration in powder mixture on formation mechanism were studied using optical and scanning electronmicroscopes, EDS and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. For this purpose two different packs containing 1 and 2wt% aluminum powder, were used for coating the samples at ...

the synthesis of polyaniline- fe2o3 nanocomposite coating on aluminum alloy 5052 (aa5052) surface has been investigated by using the galvanostatic method. the anticorrosion performance of polyaniline-fe2o3 coating was investigated in 3.5% nacl solution by the open- circuit potential (ocp), tafel polarization technique and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis). the corrosion rate of polya...

The laser diode facet damage is one of the impeding factors of the high-power laser diode operation. To overcome this restriction laser diode facet coating can be utilized. During the high power operation of the laser diode, it is observed that the single layer anti reflection (AR) coating at the front facet shows optical damage while the multilayer high reflective coating at the back facet rem...

In this study, an electroactive polymer (EAP), poly(2,5-bis(N-methyl-N-hexylamino)phenylene vinylene) (BAM-PPV) was investigated as a potential alternative surface pretreatment for hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI))-based aerospace coatings. BAM-PPV was tested as a pretreatment coating on an aerospace aluminum alloy (AA2024-T3) substrate in combination with a non-Cr(VI) epoxy primer and a polyurethan...
