Tightly bonding of bioactive coating is the first crucial need for orthopaedic implants. This study describes a novel and convenient technique to prepare bioactive coating with high adhesion on orthopaedic substitutes made of polymeric matrix. Here, a chemical corrosion method has been adopted to fabricate a coating on the surface of injection-moulded polyamide66 (PA66) substrates by corrosive ...

several investigations have been devoted towards understanding the coating process in fluidized beds. most of these studies focused on spraying liquid droplets over the bed. however, due to the complexity of these systems, more investigations are still required to quantify the effect of operating conditions on the coating criteria. the present work aims at fundamentally understanding and precis...

Researchers have been focused on the influences of flowing fluid on the corrosion of bare metals, but there is little emphasis on the degradation of metal-protective coating. Evaluating the metal-protective coating usually uses the Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) method. EIS is a technique used for evaluating coating permeability or barrier performance based on the electrical imped...

Novel scaffolds composed of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) skeleton covered with bonelike apatite or apatite/collagen composite were produced via a combined phase-separation technique and an accelerated biomimetic coating process. Saos-2 osteoblast-like cells were used to evaluate the cellular behaviors on these biomimetic coatings. Cell morphologies on the surfaces of PLLA scaffolds, PLLA scaffold...

in this research, b4c-ni cermet coating was sprayed on the surface of 4130 steel from b4c and ni feed-stockpowders using high velocity oxy-fuel (hvof) method. in order to characterize the tribological behavior of thecoating, ball on disk wear tests were done at the ambient temperature and under the loads of 1, 3 and 5 n.phase analysis of the coating after spraying was studied by x-ray diffracto...

A novel cobalt-free Cu1.2Mn1.8O4 spinel coating is prepared and evaluated for the metal interconnect of solid oxide fuel cell. Mn-35Cu and Co-35Mn alloy coatings are deposited on 430 SS substrate and then in-situ oxidized in air at 750 ◦C for 100 h. XRD results confirm that Cu1.2Mn1.8O4 spinel with some Mn2O3 is formed, and the average thickness of the coating is 70–80 μm according to cross sec...

epoxy powder coatings containing zinc aluminum phosphate (zap) and zinc phosphate (zp), which are the 2nd and 1st generation of phosphate-based pigments respectively, were applied to the surface of mild steel sheets. the anticorrosive performances of the coated samples were studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis). cathodic disbonding resistance and the adhesion performance of...

BACKGROUND Immobilizing bioactive molecules and osteoconductive apatite on titanium implants have investigated direct ossification. In this study, hydroxycholesterol (HC) was immobilized with apatite on titanium through simply adsorption or sandwich-like coating. Three kinds of hydroxycholesterol were chosen to induce ossification: 20α-hydroxycholesterol (20α- HC), 22(S)-hydroxycholesterol (22(...

Lithium iron borate (LiFeBO3) is a promising cathode material due to its high theoretical specific capacity, inexpensive components and small volume change during operation. Yet, challenges related to severe air- and moisture-induced degradation have prompted the utilization of a protective coating on the electrode which also improves the electronic conductivity. However, not much is known abou...

low water-wettability and oxidation resistance of graphite have limited its application in carbon containing refractory castables. the aims of this study were improvement of water-wettability and the oxidation resistance of natural flaky graphite by applying an oxide coating on its surface. to develop the coating, magnesium aluminate spinel sol was formulated via a citrate-nitrate route and gra...
