Nanostructured alumina thin films were coated on stainless steel by Sol-Gel dip coating method. In order to prevent crack formation, Al2O3 films were kept in a solvent bath immediately after coating to reduce the rate of drying. Effects of calcination temperature and withdrawal speed on structural properties were analyzed using XRD and SEM. Topography and thickness of coat...

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 paper presents a new method of anticorrosion coatings diagnostics using bilinear transformation. It is possible to identify the parameters of the equivalent circuit of the coating on the basis of object impedance measurement at a few, optimally selected measurement frequencies. The rules of optimal frequency selection are given. The number of frequencies is equal to the number of the equi...

The inherent reactivity of the Al–Cu alloys is such that their use for structural, marine, and aerospace components and structures would not be possible without prior application of a corrosion resistance system. Historically these corrosion resistance coatings were based on the use of chemicals containing Cr (VI) compounds. Silane coatings are of increasing interest in industry due to th...

The effect of a partial replacement spherical zinc particles by stainless steel flakes (SSF) on the corrosion protection performance zinc-rich epoxy (ZRE) coating was studied. Salt spray test, open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarization tests were utilized to evaluate anticorrosion coatings. results demonstrate that SSF enhanced properties ZRE...

The corrosion rate of steel plate using single-factor, multifactor, and complex water systems was investigated via refinery wastewater effluents used as circulating cooling water. The results show that the primary corrosion factors of steel depend on the characteristics of the ions, the formation of the oxidized coating, the diffusion of dissolved oxygen, and other complex factors, although ion...

In this study, inspired by the adhesion protein of mussels, a Zn2+-loaded polydopamine (PDA/Zn2+) coating was prepared on an alkali–heat-treated magnesium alloy surface, through chelating effect PDA with metal ions, to improve anticorrosion and biocompatibility. The results water contact angles show that PDA/Zn2+ coatings different Zn2+ contents had excellent wettability, which contributed sele...
