The anti-corrosion behaviour of epoxy coatings containing GO and rGO nanosheets was investigated. FESEM-EDS, FT-IR, and Raman spectroscopy were used to examine the microstructure and chemical composition of the nanosheets and epoxy coatings. EIS experiment was used to explore the corrosion behaviour of the coatings. The O/C ratio for GO and rGO-SLE was found to be 2.5 and 4.5, indicating a decrease in the carbon content after the reduction of GO, confirming the adsorption of SLE onto the GO nanosheets. The successful reduction of GO in the presence of SLE particles was confirmed by disappearing the C=O peak and a significant decrease in the C-O-C bond intensity. The epoxy/rGO- SLE coatings exhibited the highest double-layer thickness and excellent corrosion resistance compared to neat epoxy and epoxy/GO coatings, emphasizing the significant role of rGO in enhancing the protective performance of epoxy coatings. The highest values for total charge transfer and film resistances and the inhibition efficiency were observed to be 6529 Ω·cm^(2) and 90%, respectively, for the epoxy/rGO-SLE coated steel plate. It was also found that the epoxy/0.15 wt.% rGO-SLE coating demonstrates the best corrosion resistance performance.展开更多

Though there are many coating materials available to combat erosionecorrosion damage in the above components, iron based amorphous coatings are considered to be more effective to combat erosionecorrosion problems. High velocity oxy-fuel(HVOF)spray process is considered to be a better process to coat the iron based amorphous powders. In this investigation, iron based amorphous metallic coating was developed on 316 stainless steel substrate using HVOF spray technique. Empirical relationships were developed to predict the porosity and micro hardness of iron based amorphous coating incorporating HVOF spray parameters such as oxygen flow rate, fuel flow rate, powder feed rate, carrier gas flow rate, and spray distance. Response surface methodology(RSM) was used to identify the optimal HVOF spray parameters to attain coating with minimum porosity and maximum hardness.展开更多

The hardness of the coatings was obtained by nanoindentation and the microstructure was investigated by XRD,XPS and SEM. Solid solution hardening results in a hardness increase from 24 GPa for TiN to 31.2 GPa for TiAlN. The higher hardness values of 36.7 GPa for TiSiN and 42.4 GPa for TiAlSiN are obtained by the incorporation of Si into TiN (TiAlN) coatings due to the formation of special three-dimensional net structure consisting of nanocrystalline (nc) TiN (TiAlN) encapsulated in an amorphous (a) Si3N4 matrix phase. Furthermore,the nc-TiAlN/a-Si3N4 coating shows the best machining performance.展开更多

The morphology, hardness, and tribological properties of the coating were investigated and compared with those of Ni and composite coatings electrodeposited with direct current（DC）. The results indicate that Ni/n-SiO2 composite coating electrodeposited by RC, because of RC and the nano powders, has denser coating, finer crystal grains, higher hardness（HV650.0, nearly 1.5 times higher than that of Ni coating electrodeposited by DC） and lower friction coefficient（nearly 0.62）, as a result, in the wearing experiment, the Ni/n-SiO2 composite coating electrodeposited by RC has the least worn loss. So this kind of coating has better wear resistance. And RC electro brush-plating can be used as a new technology of brush-plating in the area of wear resistance.展开更多

The results show that proper addition of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose or sodium citrate into nano-ceramic coating, exhibits an enhanced dispersion and stability compared with the coating without dispersants. The negative ζ -potential of the particles in the nano-coating increases with the increase of pH value of the coating, and the curve of ζ -pH moves to lower pH range when the dispersants are added into the coating. To ensure that the coating has not only good stability and dispersibility but also no corrosivity to substrate alloy, adding 1.00% sodium citrate into coating with pH value of 7-8 is preferable to adding sodium carboxymethyl cellulose.展开更多

文摘The chemical compound 3-(N-ethylamino)isobutyl)trimethoxysilane(EAMS)modified titanium dioxide(TiO_(2)),producing EAMS-TiO_(2),which was encased in graphitic carbon nitride(GCN)and integrated into epoxy resin(EP).The protective properties of mild steel coated with this nanocomposite in a marine environment were assessedusing electrochemical techniques.Thermogravimetric analysis(TGA)and Cone calorimetry tests demonstrated thatGCN/EAMS-TiO_(2)significantly enhanced the flame retardancy of the epoxy coating,reducing peak heat release rate(PHRR)and total heat release(THR)values by 88%and 70%,respectively,compared to pure EP.Salt spray testsindicated reduced water absorption and improved corrosion resistance.The optimal concentration of 0.6 wt%GCNEAMS/TiO_(2)yielded the highest resistance,with the nanocomposite achieving a coating resistance of 7.50×10^(10)Ω·cm^(2)after 28 d in seawater.The surface resistance of EP-GCN/EAMS-TiO_(2)was over 99.9 times higher than pure EP after onehour in seawater.SECM analysis showed the lowest ferrous ion dissipation(1.0 nA)for EP-GCN/EAMS-TiO_(2)coatedsteel.FE-SEM and EDX analyses revealed improved breakdown products and a durable inert nanolayered covering.Thenanocomposite exhibited excellent water resistance(water contact angle of 167°)and strong mechanical properties,withadhesive strength increasing to 18.3 MPa after 28 d in seawater.EP-GCN/EAMS-TiO_(2)shows potential as a coatingmaterial for the shipping industry.

文摘Microarc oxidation is an effective surface treatment for improving certain properties of metals and their alloys.In this paper,TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O and TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O@CeO_(2)coatings were prepared on Ti-6Al-4V by microarc oxidation.Thecoatings exhibited good corrosion resistance and antimicrobial properties.X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electronmicroscopy(SEM),and 3D laser confocal were used to characterize the coatings.The properties of TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O and TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O@CeO_(2)coatings were analyzed,including microstructure,surface roughness,corrosion resistance,andantimicrobial properties.The electrochemical results showed that the coatings prepared by microarc oxidation hadenhanced corrosion resistance compared to the substrate.The antibacterial properties of TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O and TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O@CeO_(2)coating against Pseudomonas aeruginosa were evaluated by fluorescence microscopy and plate counting.The antibacterial rate of TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O@CeO_(2)coating was up to 99.70%.In summary,the TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O and TiO_(2)/Cu_(2)O@CeO_(2)coatings prepared by microarc oxidation have a potential application background in the field of marine corrosionprotection and biofouling.
文摘The present work aims to stabilize the room temperature allotropic transition of ammonium nitrate(AN)particles utilizing a microencapsulation technique,which involves solvent/non-solvent in which nitrocellulose(NC)has been employed as a coating agent.The SEM micrographs revealed distinct features of both pure AN and NC,contrasting with the irregular granular surface topography of the coated AN particles,demonstrating the adherence of NC on the AN surface.Structural analysis via infrared spectroscopy(IR)demonstrated a successful association of AN and NC,with slight shifts observed in IR bands indicating interfacial interactions.Powder X-ray Diffraction(PXRD)analysis further elucidated the structural changes induced by the coating process,revealing that the NC coating altered the crystallization pattern of its pure form.Thermal analysis demonstrates distinct profiles for pure and coated AN,for which the coated sample exhibits a temperature increase and an enthalpy decrease of the room temperature allotropic transition by 6℃,and 36%,respectively.Furthermore,the presence of NC coating alters the intermolecular forces within the composite system,leading to a reduction in melting enthalpy of coated AN by~39%compared to pure AN.The thermal decomposition analysis shows a two-step thermolysis process for coated AN,with a significant increase in the released heat by about 78%accompanied by an increase in the activation barrier of NC and AN thermolysis,demonstrating a stabilized reactivity of the AN-NC particles.These findings highlight the synergistic effect of NC coating on AN particles,which contributed to a structural and reactive stabilization of both AN and NC,proving the potential application of NC-coated AN as a strategically advantageous oxidizer in composite solid propellant formulations.
文摘Due to the high capacity and moderate volume expansion of silicon protoxide SiO_(x)(160%)compared with that of Si(300%),reducing silicon dioxide SiO_(2)into SiO_(x)while maintaining its special nano-morphology makes it attractive as an anode of Li-ion batteries.Herein,through a one-pot facile high-temperature annealing route,using SBA15 as the silicon source,and embedding tin dioxide SnO_(2)particles into carbon coated SiO_(x),the mesoporous SiO_(x)-SnO_(2)@C rod composite was prepared and tested as the anode material.The results revealed that the SnO_(2)particles were distributed uniformly in the wall,which could further improve their volume energy densities.The coated carbon plays a role in maintaining structural integrality during lithiation,and the rich mesopores structure can release the expanded volume and enhance Li-ion transfer.At 0.1 A·g^(-1),the gravimetric and volumetric capacities of the composite were as high as 1271 mAh·g^(-1)and 1573 mAh·cm^(-3),respectively.After 200 cycles,the 95%capacity could be retained compared with that upon the 2nd cycle at 0.5 A·g^(-1).And the rod morphology was well kept,except that the diameter of the rod was 3 times larger than its original size after the cell was discharged into 0.01 V.

文摘Changes to the microstructure of a hard carbon(HC)and its solid electrolyte interface(SEI)can be effective in improving the electrode kinetics.However,achieving fast charging using a simple and inexpensive strategy without sacrificing its initial Coulombic efficiency remains a challenge in sodium ion batteries.A simple liquid-phase coating approach has been used to generate a pitch-derived soft carbon layer on the HC surface,and its effect on the porosity of HC and SEI chemistry has been studied.A variety of structural characterizations show a soft carbon coating can increase the defect and ultra-micropore contents.The increase in ultra-micropore comes from both the soft carbon coatings and the larger pores within the HC that are partially filled by pitch,which provides more Na+storage sites.In-situ FTIR/EIS and ex-situ XPS showed that the soft carbon coating induced the formation of thinner SEI that is richer in NaF from the electrolyte,which stabilized the interface and promoted the charge transfer process.As a result,the anode produced fastcharging(329.8 mAh g^(−1)at 30 mA g^(−1)and 198.6 mAh g^(−1)at 300 mA g^(−1))and had a better cycling performance(a high capacity retention of 81.4%after 100 cycles at 150 mA g^(−1)).This work reveals the critical role of coating layer in changing the pore structure,SEI chemistry and diffusion kinetics of hard carbon,which enables rational design of sodium-ion battery anode with enhanced fast charging capability.
文摘Graphene oxide (GO) reduced by Stachys lavandulifolia extract (SLE) was produced and characterised. The anti-corrosion behaviour of epoxy coatings containing GO and rGO nanosheets was investigated. FESEM-EDS, FT-IR, and Raman spectroscopy were used to examine the microstructure and chemical composition of the nanosheets and epoxy coatings. EIS experiment was used to explore the corrosion behaviour of the coatings. The O/C ratio for GO and rGO-SLE was found to be 2.5 and 4.5, indicating a decrease in the carbon content after the reduction of GO, confirming the adsorption of SLE onto the GO nanosheets. The successful reduction of GO in the presence of SLE particles was confirmed by disappearing the C=O peak and a significant decrease in the C-O-C bond intensity. The epoxy/rGO- SLE coatings exhibited the highest double-layer thickness and excellent corrosion resistance compared to neat epoxy and epoxy/GO coatings, emphasizing the significant role of rGO in enhancing the protective performance of epoxy coatings. The highest values for total charge transfer and film resistances and the inhibition efficiency were observed to be 6529 Ω·cm^(2) and 90%, respectively, for the epoxy/rGO-SLE coated steel plate. It was also found that the epoxy/0.15 wt.% rGO-SLE coating demonstrates the best corrosion resistance performance.

文摘In the process of protecting ferrous materials,aluminum coating usually forms a dense oxide film on the surface of the iron-based alloy.However,the capacity of the sacrificial anode is rather insufficient.In order to solve this problem,the microstructure and electrochemical corrosion properties of Al-8Si-3Fe-xIn alloy under low chlorine conditions were studied.The results show that indium(In)dissolves to form In^(3+)and In^(+)reverse plating on the surface of the bare substrate to form a passivation film defect.When the In content is high,the segregated In forms an activation point in the form of a cathode phase.In activatesτ_(6)phase to form a micro-couple,which improves the non-uniform corrosion.The In-containing corrosion products at the phase boundary hinder the diffusion of Cl−.With an increase of In content,the self-corrosion potential(Ecorr)of the alloy shifts negatively,and the self-corrosion current density(Jcorr)decreases from 6.477μA/cm^(2)to 1.352μA/cm^(2),and then increases gradually.However,when the In content is 0.1%,the Ecorr of the alloy changes from−0.824 V to−0.932 V,and the Jcorr decreases from 6.477μA/cm^(2)to 4.699μA/cm^(2),suggesting that the use of sacrificial anode will give the best effect.

文摘Copper is a versatile material,commonly utilized in power transmission and electronic devices,but its relative high reactivity necessitates a long-lasting protective technique.Here,we report a method that combines plasma-enhanced non-equilibrium magnetron sputtering physical vapor deposition(PEUMS-PVD)and anodization to construct a self-healing three-dimensional Ti/Al-doped TiO_(2)nanotubes/Ti_(3)AlC_(2)coating on the surface of Cu substrates.This novel strategy enhances the corrosion resistance of copper substrates in marine environments,with corrosion current densities of up to 4.5643×10^(−8)A/cm^(2).Among them,the doping of nano-aluminum particles makes the coating self-healing.The mechanistic analysis of the corrosion behaviors during early immersion experiments was conducted using electrochemical noise,and revealed that during the initial stages of coating immersion,uniform corrosion predominates,with a minor occurrence of localized corrosion.
文摘Flow based Erosion e corrosion problems are very common in fluid handling equipments such as propellers, impellers, pumps in warships, submarine. Though there are many coating materials available to combat erosionecorrosion damage in the above components, iron based amorphous coatings are considered to be more effective to combat erosionecorrosion problems. High velocity oxy-fuel(HVOF)spray process is considered to be a better process to coat the iron based amorphous powders. In this investigation, iron based amorphous metallic coating was developed on 316 stainless steel substrate using HVOF spray technique. Empirical relationships were developed to predict the porosity and micro hardness of iron based amorphous coating incorporating HVOF spray parameters such as oxygen flow rate, fuel flow rate, powder feed rate, carrier gas flow rate, and spray distance. Response surface methodology(RSM) was used to identify the optimal HVOF spray parameters to attain coating with minimum porosity and maximum hardness.

文摘Ti-X-N (X=Al,Si or Al+Si) coatings were grown onto cemented carbide substrates by cathodic arc evaporation. The hardness of the coatings was obtained by nanoindentation and the microstructure was investigated by XRD,XPS and SEM. Solid solution hardening results in a hardness increase from 24 GPa for TiN to 31.2 GPa for TiAlN. The higher hardness values of 36.7 GPa for TiSiN and 42.4 GPa for TiAlSiN are obtained by the incorporation of Si into TiN (TiAlN) coatings due to the formation of special three-dimensional net structure consisting of nanocrystalline (nc) TiN (TiAlN) encapsulated in an amorphous (a) Si3N4 matrix phase. Furthermore,the nc-TiAlN/a-Si3N4 coating shows the best machining performance.
文摘Ni/n-SiO2 composite coating was electrodeposited by brush-plating with pulse-reverse current（RC）. The morphology, hardness, and tribological properties of the coating were investigated and compared with those of Ni and composite coatings electrodeposited with direct current（DC）. The results indicate that Ni/n-SiO2 composite coating electrodeposited by RC, because of RC and the nano powders, has denser coating, finer crystal grains, higher hardness（HV650.0, nearly 1.5 times higher than that of Ni coating electrodeposited by DC） and lower friction coefficient（nearly 0.62）, as a result, in the wearing experiment, the Ni/n-SiO2 composite coating electrodeposited by RC has the least worn loss. So this kind of coating has better wear resistance. And RC electro brush-plating can be used as a new technology of brush-plating in the area of wear resistance.
文摘The effects of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and sodium citrate as dispersants on nano-ceramic aqueous suspension were examined by the measurements of ζ -potential and the sedimentation test. The results show that proper addition of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose or sodium citrate into nano-ceramic coating, exhibits an enhanced dispersion and stability compared with the coating without dispersants. The negative ζ -potential of the particles in the nano-coating increases with the increase of pH value of the coating, and the curve of ζ -pH moves to lower pH range when the dispersants are added into the coating. To ensure that the coating has not only good stability and dispersibility but also no corrosivity to substrate alloy, adding 1.00% sodium citrate into coating with pH value of 7-8 is preferable to adding sodium carboxymethyl cellulose.
