Effect of salt spray corrosion on tribological properties of HVOF sprayed NiCr-Cr<Subscript>3</Subscript>C<Subscript>2</Subscript> coating with intermediate layer

The objective of the present work was to determine the influence of the neutral salt spray corrosion on the wear resistance of HVOF sprayed NiCr-Cr₃C₂ coating with intermediate layer. Ni-Zn-Al₂O₃ coatings as interlayers were prepared by low pressure cold spray (LPCS) between NiCr-Cr₃C₂ cermet coatings to form a sandwich structure to enhance the corrosion resistance properties. The tribological properties were examined using the UMT-3 fricition and wear tester by line-contact reciprocating sliding under dry and salt spray one week corrosion. The morphology, element distribution, and phase compositions of the coating and worn sufaces were analyzed by using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, and X-ray diffraction respectively. The corrosion behavior of the coating was studied by the open-circuit potential, the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, potentiodynamic polarization, and salt spray corrosion methods. It is found that the sandwich structured coating has better corrosion resistance than the single layer coating. The results show that under dry wear conditions, the wear mechanism is abrasive and adhesive wear, whereas under salt spray corrosion conditions it becomes corrosion wear. The friction coefficient of the sandwich structured coating after salt spray corrosion is slightly lower than the dry friction coefficient, but the weight of the wear loss is lower than that under dry condition.

The surface morphologies and spectroscopy analysis of VC coatings on the substrate of Cr12MoV prepared by TD process after salt spray

The normal temperature corrosion of VC coating on the substrate of Cr12MoV prepared by TD process was tested in 5% NaCl aqueous solution, its surface morphologies and corrosion components after salt spray were observed with SEM and EDS, respectively, and the effects of salt spray on micro-structures of VC coating were analyzed.

A top electrophoresis coating was deposited on the surface microarc oxidation (MAO) modified ceramic coating on AZ31 magnesium alloy. Microstructure and corrosion resistance of this composite coating were studied by SEM, electrochemical potentiodynamic polarization, and acid corrosion test. The results showed that the composite coating with a top electrophoresis coating on the surface of ceramic coating exhibited a better corrosion resistance compared with the coating formed by chemical conversion film combined with electrophoresis process. Corrosive ions could permeate into the substrate with corrosion time, and the composite coating was firstly destroyed around the scratch. The formation of composite coating with a higher adhesive force due to the porosity of the ceramic coating contributed to the improved corrosion resistance property.

Corrosion of carbon steel under epoxy-varnish coating studied by scanning Kelvin probe

The corrosion behavior of partly coated carbon steel was investigated by salt spray test and scanning Kelvin probe (SKP) in order to understand the long-term corrosion behavior of coated carbon steel in marine atmosphere environment. The localized corrosion was accurately characterized by SKP in both coated and uncoated regions. The SKP results showed that Volta potential varied with the test time, and the more the corrosion products, the more positive the potential. The borderline between coated and uncoated regions of partly coated steel shifted towards the coated side with the increasing of test time. The coating disbonding rate could be determined according to the shift of potential borderline measured by SKP. The corrosion mechanism of partly coated steel in NaCl salt spray was discussed according to the potential maps and corrosion morphologies.     

Hot-corrosion mechanism of Ni-Cr coatings at 650°C under different simulated corrosion conditions

The oxidation and lower temperature hot corrosion (LTHC) processes occurring on the surface of Ni-Cr coatings produced by high velocity arc spray (HVAS) were studied. Several different conditions were studied under simulated boiler conditions at 650°C. The protection effect of an Al coating deposited by HVAS onto the Ni-Cr coating was also investigated. Microscope, X-ray diffraction and corrosion rate curves have been used to analyze corrosion mechanisms. The experimental results show that: 1) The oxidation rates are almost superposed in both air (no SO₃) and in simulated coal-fired gas (containing SO₃) as long as no salt was present on the surface. These rate curves show a logarithmic relationship. 2) When the surface is coated with salt (75%K₂SO₃ + 25%Na₂SO₃) the rate curve for LTHC of the Ni-Cr coated surface shows a parabolic shape in the simulated coal-fire flue gas. In air only the oxidation reaction takes place, the second type of LTHC was not seen. And 3) the Al over coating on the Ni-Cr enhances resistance to LTHC because an inter-metallic compound, Al₃Ni₂, forms at the Al/Ni-Cr interface and because of the increase in coating thickness.     

Corrosion Performance of Zinc and Zinc-cobalt Alloy Compositionally Modulated Multilayer （CMM） Coatings

Varieties of zinc and Zn-Co alloy compositionally modulated multilayer （CMM） coatings were electrodeposited onto steel substrates using dual bath technique. The surface and cross-sectional morphologies of coated samples were examined using scanning electron microscopy （ SEM ）. The existence of iuternal stress in ZnCo alloy deposits was confirmed by the cross-sectional morphalogies for the occurrence of micro-cracks in the thick Zn-Co alloy deposit alone. The corrosion performance was evaluated using neutral salt spray testing, corrosion potential measurement and anodic polarization methods. The experimental results slum, that the zinc and Zn- Co alloy CMM coatings were more corrosion-resistant than the monolithic coatings of zinc or Zn-Co alloy alone with a similar thickness. The analysis on the micrographic features of zinc and Zn-Co alloy CMM coatings, using field emission gun scanning electron microscopy （FEGSEM） after corrosion testing, explains the probable reusons why the Zn-Co/ Zn CMM coating system has a better protective performance.     

Effects of laser heat treatment on salt spray corrosion of 1Cr5Mo heat resistant steel welding joints

The surface of 1Cr5 Mo heat-resistant steel welding joint was processed with CO2 laser, and the corrosion behaviors before and after laser heat treatment(LHT) were investigated in the salt spray corrosion environments. The microstructures, phases, residual stresses and retained austenite content of 1Cr5 Mo steel welding joint before and after LHT were analyzed with optical microscope and X-ray diffraction, respectively. The cracking morphologies and chemical compositions of corrosion products after salt spray corrosion were analyzed with field emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM) and energy disperse spectroscopy(EDS), respectively, the polarization curves were measured on a PS-268 A type electrochemical workstation, and the mechanism of corrosion resistance by LHT was investigated as well. The results show that the passive film of original sample is destroyed owing to the corrosive media penetrating into the subsurface, resulting in the redox reaction. The content of residual austenite in the surface and the self-corrosion potential are increased by LHT, which is contributed to improving the capability of salt spray corrosion resistance.

The coating with PVC of 30% exhibits good corrosion resistance in 3.5% (mass fraction) NaCl solution.     

The friction and wear characteristics and lubrication mechanism of imidazole phosphate ionic liquid

Several imidazole phosphate ionic liquids with varying carbon chain length have been synthesized at room temperature. Corrosion characteristics and tribological properties of these synthesized ionic liquids were studied using four-ball friction and wear testing machine. Its lubrication mechanism was also investigated by means of electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The experimental results showed that no corrosion was generated when the imidazole phosphate ionic liquid was applied to steel-steel pair. Meanwhile, the imidazole phosphate showed excellent anti-wear and lubricating performances, its frictional performance was related to the polarity of ionic liquids. It is suggested that the ionic liquids react with friction surface to form a protective film of iron phosphate and result in reduction in friction and wear.
