Modern gas turbine hot sections need to be protected from elevated temperature and damaging environments. This protection starts as a typically two layer coating system, the base layer or bond coat (BC) acts as a corrosion barrier and a kind of buffer for the thermal mismatch between the base material and the second top thermally protective layer or Thermal Barrier Coating (TBC). The BC is norm...

in this paper , the effect of curing time and temperature as well as various primers on durability of high density polyethylene on plain carbon steel have been investigated. the aim is to increase adhesion, improve durability and also to produce a defect-free in order to improve the corrosion resistance of steel substrate. for this purpose, after surface preparation and applying a primer (zinc ...

ing technology, around 30 years ago, was an important milestone for the coatings sector offering an environmentally benign application process that could deliver an excellent finish. Today, the use of powder coatings is widespread, particularly in the durable goods market, with the automotive industry providing excellent prospects for longer-term growth. The more recent development of powders w...

in this paper, a 3d stochastic model has been presented to predict the coating thickness and porosity in a thermal spray coating process. different values of processing parameters were obtained. the model was developed on the basis of prescribed rules in calculating the splat size during the impact of individual droplets on the surface of the substrate. due to the thermal stresses produced duri...

Plasma-sprayed ceramic coatings are being developed for many applications such as thermal barriers and corrosion protection. In plasma spraying, the ceramic powder is heated into semi-molten droplets for projection onto a target surface by a high velocity gas stream. This coating is then rapidly cooled to form a solid layer. By repeating this process for multiple layers, a coating thickness fro...

Adhesion strength of exterior or interior coating of steel pipes is too important. Increasing of coating adhesion on surfaces can increase the life time of coating, safety factor of transmitting line pipe and decreasing the rate of corrosion and costs. Preparation of steel pipe surfaces before doing the coating process is done by shot and grit blasting. This is a mechanical way to do it. Some e...

Precursors of lanthanum oxide and of (3La2O3, 5Ga2O3, SiO2) system were first elaborated then thermally decomposed into polycrystalline lanthanum oxide and langasite La3Ga5SiO14. The as prepared lanthanum oxide powder was then hydrated and carbonated to give hydroxicarbonates: thermal decomposition of these complex system La2O3-X(OH)y(CO3)z was studied by Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy...

Plasma spray process is one of the most versatile thermal spray deposition processes. There are great number of parameters that influence the quality and characteristic of deposited coating and their values must be defined precisely for each type of coating and used equipment individually. A review of the technology developed for deposition of ferrous-based powder spray (Fe-1.3Cr-1.5Mn-1.2C0.3N...
