Studies on broad spectrum corrosion resistant oxide coatings

Corrosion Resistant ALD Coatings

Current Research Status of Corrosion Resistant Coatings

The recent patents on corrosion resistant coatings were reviewed in this paper. The materials of corrosion resistant components, e.g., metals and alloys, ceramics, polymers as well as composite materials, developed for environmental, economic and other concerns were discussed. In addition, the novel methods for forming the coatings, including the powder floating by vibration and the precursor g...

Development of Corrosion Resistant Zn-Ni-TiO2 Composite Coatings

The Zn-Ni-TiO2 composite coatings were developed on mild steel by electrodeposition method. The bath constituents (ZnSO4.6H2O, NiSO4.6H2O, TiO2, thiamine hydrochloride) and operating conditions (temperature and pH) were optimized by Hull cell method, for peak performance of the coating against corrosion. The coatings were prepare...

Corrosion-Resistant, Chromate-Free Talc Coatings for Aluminum

Aluminum (Al) and Al alloys exhibit unusual passivity when immersed in alkaline lithium (Li) salt solutions. This passivity is a result of precipitation of a continuous, polycrystalline talc coating. Talc coatings persist when removed from the Li salt solution and offer increased corrosion protection during exposure to aggressive environments. Efforts to develop a low-cost, low-toxicity, easily...

Development of Antifouling and Corrosion Resistant Coatings for Petrochemical Compressors

Two coatings have been developed for petrochemical compressor antifouling and corrosion resistance purposes. One is a multilayer composite coating with a modified polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) impregnated organic topcoat, which gives it superior antifouling performance to the similar coating that has been used by the compressor original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The other is a high-phosp...
