Chemical Surface Treatment of Stainless Steel

Investigation of Diamond Deposition on AISI 316 & 430 Stainless Steel Substrares

In this paper, the nucleation and growth of diamond/diamond-like coatings on austenitic (AISI 316) and ferritic (AISI 430) stainless steel substrates have been investigated using torch technique. The effects of substrate surface preparation has also been studied. The quality of coatings produced has been examined using optical and scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectros...

Characterization of a Laser Surface-Treated Martensitic Stainless Steel

Laser surface treatment was carried out on AISI 416 machinable martensitic stainless steel containing 0.225 wt.% sulfur. Nd:YAG laser with a 2.2-KW continuous wave was used. The aim was to compare the physical and chemical properties achieved by this type of selective surface treatment with those achieved by the conventional treatment. Laser power of different values (700 and 1000 W) with four ...

A Review on Surface Treatment of Stainless Steel Orthopedic Implants

It is expected that in future, there will be an immense usage of implantable devices which will cause the number of infections to increase naturally because some patients are unable to autonomously prevent formation of bio film on implant surfaces. The ideal implant should be able to promote osteointegration, deter bacterial adhesion and minimize prosthetic infection. Recent developments in mat...

Work of adhesion of dairy products on stainless steel surface

The adhesion of the solids presents in food can difficult the process of surface cleaning and promotes the bacterial adhesion process and can trigger health problems. In our study, we used UHT whole milk, chocolate based milk and infant formula to evaluate the adhesion of Enterobacter sakazakii on stainless steel coupons, and we determine the work of adhesion by measuring the contact angle as w...
