Glass/ceramic composite coatings were prepared on 40Cr steel matrix by thermo-chemical reaction with fly ash and a small amount of SiO2, Al2O3, MgO, and albite as main raw materials. On this basis, adding 10% Al-TiO2-B2O3 exothermic system, the morphology, phase, thermal shock resistance, and corrosion resistance of the coating were tested, and the influence of exothermic system on the structur...

The innuence of an elastic component of the rheological properties of the coating suspension on the coating ow in the blade coating process was investigated by numerical methods. The Giesekus model was used as the constitutive equation for the coating uid (coating colour). The system of time-dependent partial diierential equations was solved numerically by dis-cretising the solution with nite d...

This paper presents finite element analysis (FEA) of a coated and uncoated cylinder heads of a diesel engine to examine the distribution of temperature and stress. A thermal barrier coating system was applied on the combustion chamber of the cylinder heads, consists of two-layer systems: a ceramic top coat (TC), made of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ), ZrO2-8%Y2O3 and also a metallic bond coat...

Floating dosage forms with prolonged gastric residence time have garnered much interest in the field of oral delivery. However, studies had shown that slow and incomplete release of hydrophobic drugs during gastric residence period would reduce drug absorption and cause drug wastage. Herein, a spray-coated floating microcapsule system was developed to encapsulate fenofibrate and piroxicam, as m...

The implementation of an Environmental Management System (EMS) ISO 14001 is an instrument for achieving a corporate’s sustainable development and therefore is an important tool for environmental management. Due to rapid economic development, the coating industry is increasing rapidly, resulting in several environmental problems. Many coating firms have adopted EMS; however, quantitative and qua...

these days, most of the marine structures which are constructed and used in persian gulf, are made of st37 steel. due to oil and gas sources excavated, the number of these structures is constantly increasing. on the other hand, these types of structures are exposed to corrosive environments and it is seriously critical for these structures to be used for many years. coal tar epoxy (trade name),...

Ceramic thermal barrier coatings are commonly used in gas turbine hot components (e.g., combustor liners/buckets and guide vane platforms). In components that are only partially coated or have cooling-air outlets, coating-end stress singularities may lead to the spallation of the coating. Depending on the geometry of the transition from coated to uncoated material, the severity of the stress si...

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...
