The behavior of zinc dithiophosphate (ZnDTP) is investigated for the antiwear properties in SiC-steel and Si3N4-steel sliding contact systems under boundary lubrication. Reaction products formed on the steel surfaces under the sliding contact differ in the chemical compositions and the thickness between these couples. These differences are specifically related to the physical properties of mating materials such as heat conductivity and friction coefficient. The reaction products are analyzed by SEM (scanning electron microscope), EPMA (electron probe microanalysis), AES (Auger electron spectroscope), and PAS (photoacoustic spectroscopy), and it is confirmed that iron phosphate for SiC-steel and iron phosphate and zinc sulfide (or some complex compound containing equal amounts of Zn and S in atomic ratio) for Si3N4-steel couple exist on the steel surface, respectively. An examination is conducted on steel-steel couple in comparison with ceramics-steel couples, and the atomic ratio (Zn:P:S) of the constituent elements of the reaction products coincides fairly with that of SiC-steel couple.

The thermodynamic properties and characterizations of corrosion inhibition of chitosan nano-particles on the surface of mild steel in peat water media had been studied using weight loss method at temperatures of 30 - 50 <sup>o</sup>C. Steel surfaces were characterized by FT-IR spectra and SEM-EDS morphology photos. The research found that the value of DG<sup>o </sup>approaching -40 kJmol<sup>-</sup><sup>1</sup>. The negative value of Gibbs free energy shows that the adsorption of inhibitor molecules on the surface of mild steel was achemisorption and it occurred spontaneously. Meanwhile, the values of DH<sup>o </sup>is also negative confirming that the adsoprtion of inhibitor molecules is an exothermic process. The value of DS<sup>o </sup>obtained is positive, it indicates hat the inhibitor molecules were adsorbed spontaneously on the mild steel surface. The analysis on mild steel surfaces hows that the nano-particle chitosan was adsorbed on the steel surface to form the complex compounds.

This article deals with laboratory experiments focused on protective and stabilizing effects of paints designed to protect rusted steel surfaces. Two well-known paints (the Hammerite No.1 Rustbeater synthetic paint and the Antirezin water-soluble paint) have been evaluated. The standardized tests according to ČSN have been used for the evaluation. Stabilization of rusted steel surface hasn’t been demonstrated during the tests. The SEM test method that covers micro-analysis of elements has been used for the evaluation as well.

Abstract. Laboratory chamber experiments are the main source of data on the mechanism of oxidation and the secondary organic aerosol (SOA) forming potential of volatile organic compounds. Traditional methods of representing the SOA formation potential of an organic do not fully capture the dynamic, multi-generational nature of the SOA formation process. We apply the Statistical Oxidation Model (SOM) of Cappa and Wilson (2012) to model the formation of SOA from the formation of the four C12 alkanes, dodecane, 2-methyl undecane, cyclododecane and hexylcyclohexane, under both high- and low-NOx conditions, based upon data from the Caltech chambers. In the SOM, the evolution of reaction products is defined by the number of carbon (NC) and oxygen (NO) atoms, and the model parameters are (1) the number of oxygen atoms added per reaction, (2) the decrease in volatility upon addition of an oxygen atom and (3) the probability that a given reaction leads to fragmentation of the molecules. Optimal fitting of the model to chamber data is carried out using the measured SOA mass concentration and the aerosol O:C atomic ratio. The use of the kinetic, multi-generational SOM is shown to provide insights into the SOA formation process and to offer promise for application to the extensive library of existing SOA chamber experiments that is available.

Surface texturing is one of modern technologies using for improvement friction and wear properties of rubbed surfaces. The simple and effective methods of surface texturing are mechanical or chemical treatments of friction surfaces. In this work we deal with chemical treatment of steel surfaces with following filling the profile by solid lubricant particles as MoS2. The steel surfaces were etched with phosphoric acid. The effect of time and temperature of etching on the surface roughness parameters was studied. Some standard roughness parameters of etched surface were measured. It was found that the parameters of roughness as Rz and Sm characterizing the depth of valleys and their size can be used for description of etched surfaces. Optimal parameters, Rz and Sm, providing the best tribological properties were determined: Rz = 5 ∼ 7 m and Sm = 50–70 m. The thickness of solid lubricant film was about 1 m. Finally, the tribological properties of MoS2 films on the steel surfaces textured by chemical treatment were performed. The friction coefficient and wear life of solid lubricant films was assessed. Friction and wear properties of MoS2 films on etched surfaces were compared with similar films on virgin steel surface. The wear life of MoS2 films on etched surfaces was 5–7 times larger than for solid lubricant film on mechanically treated steel surface.

In this study, a superhydrophobic coating on steel surface has been developed with polyurethane, SiO 2 nanoparticles and hexadecyltrimethoxysilane by using a spin-coating technique. Characterization of the coated steel surface was done by using the contact angle measurement technique, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. With a water tilt angle of 4° ± 2° and static contact angle of 165° ± 5°, the coated surface shows a superhydrophobic and self-cleaning nature. Chemical, thermal, mechanical stability tests and droplet dynamic studies were done to evaluate performance of the coating. Excellent self-cleaning, anti-fogging and anti-corrosion properties of coated steel surfaces make them ideal for industrial applications. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Bioinspired materials and surfaces for green science and technology (part 3)’.

ABSTRACT Mild (unalloyed) steel electrodes were incubated in phosphate-buffered cultures of aerobic, biofilm-formingRhodococcus sp. strain C125 and Pseudomonas putida mt2. A resulting surface reaction leading to the formation of a corrosion-inhibiting vivianite layer was accompanied by a characteristic electrochemical potential (E) curve. First, E increased slightly due to the interaction of phosphate with the iron oxides covering the steel surface. Subsequently, E decreased rapidly and after 1 day reached −510 mV, the potential of free iron, indicating the removal of the iron oxides. At this point, only scattered patches of bacteria covered the surface. A surface reaction, in which iron was released and vivianite precipitated, started. E remained at −510 mV for about 2 days, during which the vivianite layer grew steadily. Thereafter, E increased markedly to the initial value, and the release of iron stopped. Changes in E and formation of vivianite were results of bacterial activity, with oxygen consumption by the biofilm being the driving force. These findings indicate that biofilms may protect steel surfaces and might be used as an alternative method to combat corrosion.

The heating, generated in the process of deformational cutting without chip separation used for phase transformation in steel during lathe machining. Chips are not separated from the workpiece and remain on the surface thus forming a special reinforced structure. The result of processing is a steel surface quenching up to 1 mm deep. The proposed method also makes it possible to obtain hardened surface structures with alternating inclined layers of different hardness. The article presents calculations of heating and cooling rates, types of hardened structures, hardness investigation of hardened steel surfaces.
