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...

In this study, the effect of surface roughness and roughness morphology on the bond strength of WC-Co-Cr coatings has investigated. The three different surfaces morphology are use for this purpose. The first and tow samples sandblasted with alumina and silicon carbide respectively. Other sample no sandblasted before spraying process. The same WC-10Co-4Cr coating deposited on the substrates with...

As a vibration- free concrete, self- compacting concrete (SCC) can be easily used in the absence of consolidation, therefore; it is a good option for repairing and retrofitting concrete structures. The quality of repair layer is highly effective on a successful repair. Accordingly, in this study, factors affecting the quality of fiber-reinforced self-compacting concrete repair layer, including ...

In order to characterize very weak adhesive surfaces, we have developed a quantitative test inspired by the Johnson, Kendall, and Roberts adhesion test for soft adhesives, which relies on the formation and then the rupture of a capillary bridge between the surface to be tested and a liquid bath. Both the shape and the kinetics of breakage of the capillary bridge for various coatings put into co...

the research mainly intends to evaluate performance of strontium aluminum polyphosphate as an eco friendly zinc free anticorrosion pigment in formulation of the protective primer based on epoxy resin. comparing to zinc phosphate, the most effective content of the modified pigment was determined through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. according to pull-off, the superior sapp incorporated...
