nanostructured alumina thin films were coated on stainless steel by sol-gel dip coating method. in order to prevent crack formation, al2o3 films were kept in a solvent bath immediately after coating to reduce the rate of drying. effects of calcination temperature and withdrawal speed on structural properties were analyzed using xrd and sem. topography and thickness of coatings were analyzed by ...

the aim of this work is to synthesize and investigate the performance of yttria-doped zirconia solgelcoatings in the chemical corrosion prevention of zircaloy-4 (zirconium alloy) in a 1 n h2so4environment. the influence of four different molar ratios of water to alkoxide, namely 1, 4, 12, and20, on the coating quality and its corrosion prevention performance was investigated. differentialtherma...

in the present study, the effects of growth defects and chromium content loss on the degradation of corrosion andpassivation of cathodic arc evaporation (cae-pvd) of stainless steel coating were investigated in 2 m sulphuricacid solution. eds analysis indicated that the micro-particles were obtained during the coating growth. in addition,it was detected that the growth defects had poor adhesion...

objective: a clinical challenge of using zirconia frameworks is to achieve adequate bond with different substrates. this study aimed to evaluate the effect of bioglass and silica coating of zirconia substrates on microshear bond strength of resin cement to tetragonal zirconia. methods: this laboratory experimental study was conducted on zirconia discs. a total of 120 ytzp zirconia (zirkonzahn) ...

The aim of this study was to deyelop a noyel hydroxyapatite (HA) coating method on zirconia using glass coating technique. A borosi)icate glass, the mixture of the glass ttnd HA (3e, 50, 70, and 90 mass%), and the 100% HA were coated on two kinds of zirconia discs and fired at 900-950'C. After the final coating, the surface of the sample was etched for 3 min in an acid-mixture of 3% HF and 5%HN...

in this research controlled coating of magnetite (fe3o4) nanoparticles with sio2 was investigated. the fe3o4 nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical co-precipitation and then coated by silica according to stober method. effects of tetra ethyl ortho silicate (teos) concentration and ethanol to teos on the coating thickness were investigated. x-ray powder diffraction, fourier transform infrar...
