This study investigated the deformation effects of the interface between conventionally produced stainless steel X2crNi 19 11 and HIPed NiTI coating (Hot Isostatic Pressed). Near-equiatomic nickel-titanium alloy (NiTi) has many attractive material properties, such as pseudo-elasticity and shape memory effects, which result into beneficial engineering properties e.g. as cavitation resistant coat...

in the present study, the effects of growth defects and chromium content loss on the degradation of corrosion andpassivation of cathodic arc evaporation (cae-pvd) of stainless steel coating were investigated in 2 m sulphuricacid solution. eds analysis indicated that the micro-particles were obtained during the coating growth. in addition,it was detected that the growth defects had poor adhesion...

INTRODUCTION Intravascular coronary stenting has been used in the treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD), with a major limitation of in-stent restenosis (ISR). The 316 stainless steel has been widely used for coronary stents. In this study, we developed a novel coating method to reduce ISR by simultaneously coating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and anti-CD34 antibody on 316L sta...

Stainless steel powder was coated on mild steel substrate using plasma coating. The porous coating thus obtained was modified using laser irradiation. The oxidation behaviour of the plasma coated as well as laser treated material was studied in air at 1073 K. There was considerable decrease in oxidation rate of mild steel after plasma coating as expected. In addition the oxidation resistance im...

Waste water treatment reservoirs are contaminated with many hazardous chemicals and acids. Reservoirs typically comprise concrete and reinforcement steel bars, and the main elements responsible for their deterioration are hazardous chemicals, acids, and ozone. Currently, a variety of techniques are being used to protect reservoirs from exposure to these elements. The most widely used techniques...

Original scientific paper In this paper, influence of flame spraying and fusing on microstructure of substrates made from heat treated carbon steel C45, a heat treated low alloyed 42CrMo4 steel and stainless austenitic steel X6CrNiMo18-10-2, has been investigated. Flame spraying and fusing is a deposition technique commonly applied to nickel-base self-fluxing alloys (NiCrBSi alloys). Because of...

In order to improve the oxidation resistance of ferritic stainless steel, it is possible to deposit a protective coating on steel substrate. In this research through the usage of pack cementation method a coating of titanium was applied on the surface of AISI 430 stainless steel. Scanning Electron-Microscopy (SEM), Energy- Dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDAX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were us...

long–term stability and oxidation resistance of aisi 439 ferritic stainless steel used as interconnects in solid oxide fuel cells can be improved by use of a protective coating. in this study the pack cementation method was employed to coat aisi 439 ferritic stainless steel with manganese. isothermal oxidation was conducted at 800 ºc for 200 hours in static air to investigate the role of coatin...

A novel sintered cutting stainless steel fiber felt with internal channels (SCSSFFC) composed of a stainless-steel fiber skeleton, three-dimensional interconnected porous structure and multiple circular microchannels is developed. SCSSFFC has a jagged and rough surface morphology and possesses a high specific surface area, which is approximately 2.4 times larger than that of the sintered bundle...

Corrosive-erosive effect on AISI D3 steel, 304 stainless steel and CrN/AlN coating in aqueous NaCl slurries was studied. CrN/AlN multilayer films with a thickness of 3 m and bilayer period of = 60 nm (50 bilayers) were obtained by using the physical vapor deposition (PVD) technique (magnetron sputtering). The corrosion-erosion experiments were performed in a test machine in which the impingemen...
