Anticorrosive coatings: a review.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract The main objective of this review is to describe some of the important topics related to the use of marine and protective coatings for anticorrosive purposes. In this context, "protective" refers to coatings for containers, offshore constructions, wind turbines, storage tanks, ...
UV-cured coatings based on waterborne resins and Si[O.sub.2] nanoparticles.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract The UV curing technique in combination with the use of waterborne resins is very attractive since it gives the opportunity to get solid coatings by means of ecofriendly processes. We found that it is possible to use such UV curable water-based formulations as matrices for the ...
Inorganic precursor peroxides for antifouling coatings.(Report)
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract Modern antifouling coatings are generally based on cuprous oxide ([Cu.sub.2]O) and organic biocides as active ingredients. [Cu.sub.2]O is prone to bioaccumulation, and should therefore be replaced by more environmentally benign compounds when technically possible. However, cuprous ...
Advanced chrome-free organic-inorganic hybrid pretreatments for aerospace aluminum alloy 2024-T3--application of novel bis-ureasil sol-gel precursors.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract Effective pretreatment of aluminum alloys is very critical to success of protective coating systems for aerospace applications. While chromate-based pretreatments have been very successful for corrosion protection, they have been a target for replacement due to the increasingly ...
Evaluation of the atmospheric corrosion resistance of AISI A-36 steel painted with coatings based on epoxy and poly(urethane) resins using semi-accelerated testing.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract The influence of temperature, humidity, salinity, and the number of we-dry cycles in the atmospheric corrosion resistance of the AISI A-36 steel, painted with coatings based on epoxy and poly(urethane) resins was studied. The aim of this work is to present an alternative to the ...
Application of polyaniline/nylon composites coating for corrosion protection of steel.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract In this research, we investigated the corrosion inhibition properties of polished steel plates (low carbon) coated with a polyaniline (emeraldine base form) blend with nylon 66 (termed PANi/Ny) via cast method with formic acid as the solvent. Polyaniline (PANi) was prepared ...
Influence of surface cleaning by tools made of copper alloys on the painting performance.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract Surface cleaning tools made of copper alloys are widely employed when sparks have to be avoided. On the other hand, copper residues may be left on the surface. It is not known whether such copper incrustation interferes with the performance of a painting system. Therefore, the aim ...
Effect of heat treatment at 1300[degrees]C on W coating prepared by double-glow plasma on carbon/carbon composite.(Report)
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract W-coated carbon/carbon composite has been considered as an attractive ITER plasma facing material in fusion devices. In this paper, W coating was prepared on the carbon/carbon composite substrate by double-glow plasma method using pure W as target. Argon was input into the chamber ...
Properties of TiN-matrix coating deposited by reactive HVOF spraying.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract TiN-matrix coating was prepared by reactive high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) spraying on carbon steel based on the self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) technique in air. The phase composition, structures, and properties of TiN-matrix coating were analyzed using XRD, ...
Fabrication and characterization of Cd-enriched CdTe thin films by close spaced sublimation.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract Cd-enriched cadmium telluride (CdTe) polycrystalline films were grown on corning glass substrates by close spaced sublimation (CSS) technique. To our knowledge, Cd-enriched CdTe thin films by CSS have not been reported earlier. The structural investigations performed by means of ...
Palladium and tantalum aluminide coatings for high-temperature oxidation resistance of titanium alloy IMI 834.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract The present article explains the efforts made in developing new protective coatings based on palladium, tantalum, and aluminum with considerably improved oxidation resistance for effective protection of titanium alloy IMI 834. Systematic characterization was carried out on ...
Morphologies and growth mechanisms of zirconium carbide films by chemical vapor deposition.
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract Zirconium carbide films were grown on graphite slices by chemical vapor deposition using methane, zirconium tetrachloride, and hydrogen as precursors. The growth rate of zirconium carbide films as a function of temperature was investigated. The morphologies of these films at ...
Study of corrosion and friction reduction of electroless Ni-P coating with molybdenum disulfide nanoparticles.(BRIEF COMMUNICATION)
Jun 01, 2009; ... Abstract One composite coating of Ni-P alloys containing Mo[S.sub.2] nanoparticles was prepared by electroless technique based on the batter friction reduction ability of Mo[S.sub.2] and better anticorrosion property of electroless Ni-P alloys on carbon steel surfaces.
