Aluminum 7075

This study investigated the corrosion resistance of oil impregnated anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) surfaces of aluminum 7075 for subsea application. Although aluminum 7075 has high strength, it is scarcely used in the subsea industry because of its corrosion issue. Some treatment of aluminum 7075 is required for subsea application. In this study not only a plate shape but also a cylindrical shape were investigated because a cylindrical shape is frequently used in the subsea industry for electronic device housing. Contact angles of bare aluminum and oil impregnated AAO surfaces of aluminum 7075 were measured after a salt spray test and a pressure test. The results showed that the contact angle of bare aluminum was considerably decreased after the salt spray test, whereas the oil impregnated AAO surface presented a relatively high contact angle after the salt spray test and the pressure test. These results showed that the corrosion resistance of aluminum 7075 could be enhanced by oil impregnation on the AAO surface, and thus can be utilized in the subsea industry.

This study modified graphene oxide (GO) with hydrophilic octadecylamine (ODA) via covalent bonding to improve its dispersion in silicone-modified epoxy resin (SMER) coatings. The structural and physical properties of ODA-GO were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and contact angle tests. The ODA-GO composite materials were added to SMER coatings by physical mixing. FE-SEM, water absorption, and contact angle tests were used to evaluate the physical properties of the ODA-GO/SMER coatings, while salt spray, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and scanning Kelvin probe (SKP) methods were used to test the anticorrosive performance of ODA-GO/SMER composite coatings on Q235 steel substrates. It was found that ODA was successfully grafted onto the surfaces of GO. The resulting ODA-GO material exhibited good hydrophobicity and dispersion in SMER coatings. The anticorrosive properties of the ODA-GO/SMER coatings were significantly improved due to the increased interfacial adhesion between the nanosheets and SMER, lengthening of the corrosive solution diffusion path, and increased cathodic peeling resistance. The 1 wt.% ODA-GO/SMER coating provided the best corrosion resistance than SMER coatings with other amounts of ODA-GO (including no addition). After immersion in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution for 28 days, the low-frequency end impedance value of the 1 wt.% ODA-GO/SMER coating remained high, at 6.2 × 108 Ω·cm2.

A novel phenomenon known as Industry X.0 is becoming extremely popular for digitizing and reinventing business organizations through the adaption of rapid and dynamic technological, innovational, and organizational changes for attaining the profitable revenue. This work investigates the die-casted commercially pure aluminum alloyed with 9% silicon and 3% copper (AlSi9Cu3) that is produced through the gravity die casting process. Further, the degradation of surface coating on die-casted AlSi9Cu3 alloy was explored. The acrylic paint electrodeposition (ED) coat, 2-coat polyester without primer and 3-coat polyester with epoxy primer powder coatings were used in this study. Moreover, the 3.5 wt.% of sodium chloride (3.5 wt.% of NaCl) test solution was used for electrochemical and salt spray test and the tools used to assess electrochemical properties were electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization, and neutral salt spray test (NSS). The microstructure of AlSi9Cu3 after corrosion exposure was investigated; also, the microstructure of coated and uncoated AlSi9Cu3 samples was analyzed by SEM microscopy after corrosion exposure. Besides, the electrochemical studies were also carried out on the Al alloy die casting. It was found that acrylic paint ED coatings exhibited higher corrosion resistance than 2-coat polyester without primer & 3-coat polyester with epoxy primer powder coatings. Acrylic paint ED coating showed higher corrosion resistance in AC and a lower value in DC and 3-coat polyester with epoxy primer powder coating displayed higher corrosion resistance in DC and a lower value in AC.

Entre as ligas não ferrosas, as ligas de zamac são as mais utilizadas para a fundição e vêm sendo aplicadas na substituição de peças de latão, utilizadas industrialmente em metais sanitários. O zamac apresenta propriedades mecânicas semelhantes às do latão, porém com custo inferior. Entretanto, a alta porosidade destas ligas, impede que tratamentos superficiais garantam bom acabamento e resistência à corrosão. Visando melhorar o desempenho, frente à corrosão de peças de zamac, o objetivo do presente trabalho é avaliar o processo de diferentes tratamentos de superfície dos metais sanitários produzidos em zamac. As amostras foram injetadas sobre pressão e submetidas a diferentes tratamentos superficiais (tratamento mecânico, tratamento químico, cobre alcalino, cobre ácido, níquel, cromo). Os corpos de prova foram expostos a um meio agressivo, por meio de nevoa salina a fim de analisar a resistência à corrosão das peças, além de análises de polarização, metalografia e microdureza. Observou-se que a maior incidência de corrosão ocorreu nas partes de injeção e solda da peça, as amostras tratadas com níquel e cromo demonstraram o melhor desemprenho frente a resistência a corrosão.Palavras-chave: Zamac. Metais sanitários. Corrosão.ABSTRACTAmong the non ferrous alloys, zamak are the most used for casting and have been applied to substitute brass parts, industrially utilized in sanitary metals. The zamak presents mechanical properties similar to brass, however with lower cost. Meanwhile, the high porosity of these alloys hinders the superficial treatments ensure good finishing and corrosion resistance. Aiming to improve the performance against corrosion of zamak parts, this work evaluates the process of different superficial treatments of sanitary metals produced with zamak. The samples were injected under pressure and submitted to different superficial treatments (mechanical, chemical, alkaline copper, acid copper, nickel and chromium). The specimens were exposed to an aggressive medium through salt spray test to evaluate the corrosion resistance, and the following analysis: polarization, metallography and microhardness. It was observed that the higher corrosion incidence occurred on the injection and weld regions. The samples treated with nickel and chromium demonstrated better performance of corrosion resistance.

Mechanical Properties And Corrosion

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the mechanical and corrosion behaviors of selective laser melting (SLM) 30CrMnSiA steel. Design/methodology/approach The microstructure, mechanical behavior and corrosion resistance of SLM 30CrMnSiA steel were studied by electrochemical test and immersion experiment. Findings The results showed that the microstructure of SLM 30CrMnSiA steel contained equiaxed fine (25.0 µm) ferrite and lamellar pearlite. The tensile strength of SLM 30CrMnSiA steel under the process parameters is 1,447 MPa and the elongation is 7.5%. As the immersion/salt spray test time increased to 15 days/48 h, corrosion mainly occurred in the local position of the sample and corrosion resistance decreased. When the immersion/salt spray test time increased to 30 days/168 h, the corrosion production covered the surface of the samples and the corrosion resistance increased. Originality/value The paper can guide the application and in situ repair for low-alloy steel by additive manufacturing.

Abstract The corrosion resistance of two steel coatings (inorganic zinc-rich coating and thermal-spray zinc coating) was studied in detail by using the electrochemical and salt spray test, and the salt spray corrosion thickness was calculated by the time-varying equation established from the mathematical fitting method. The result show that the corrosion mechanism of the two types of coatings was the same that based on the sacrificed of zinc through anodizing phenomenon. The main reason for the difference of corrosion resistance between the two anticorrosive coatings was that the coating density and shielding effect of corrosion products were different. The 7500-hours salt spray test showed that the corrosion rates and microstructure characteristics of both types of zinc coatings were homogeneous on the premise of ensuring coating reliability. The time-varying equation can be used to evaluate the service life of the zinc coatings and judge their corrosion resistance quickly, that providing theoretical support for the maintenance of steel structures as well as the accelerated selection and design of coating formulations.

Tin Bronze

Bronze alloys are made of copper-based materials with another metal, usually tin. Many surface modification techniques such as chemical etching, oxidation, electro deposition and sol-gel could be employed to improve surface properties. The organic compound that was used in this study was extracted from chili peppers. FT-IR (Fourier-transform infrared) spectroscopy and UV (Ultraviolet) spectroscopy investigations were applied on the extracted compound and results showed that this compound is mainly capsaicin [N-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzyl)-8-methylnon-trans-6-enamide) (HMMTE)]. Electrochemical deposition was employed under cell voltage equal to 30 volts in a two-electrodes cell where bronze was the anode and stainless steel was the cathode in a solution of 10 ml/L (HMMTE)/distilled-water. Modification of tin-bronze for 1 hr. in 10 ml/L HMMTE/ distilled water solution increased the contact angle from 48° to 132˚. Attension Biolin device (Model: Theta Optical Tensiometers) was used to measure the contact angle at ambient temperature. Electrochemical measurements revealed that a significant improvement in corrosion resistance of tin-bronze in 3.5% NaCl had been achieved. The corrosion rate of tin-bronze decreased from 10.22 mpy to 1.39 mpy. Surface morphology of the samples was investigated with scanning electron microscopy (SEN) and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). X-ray diffraction was employed to determined present phases. Surface investigations results confirmed that a layer of red cuprous oxide (Cu2O) was formed on the surface layer after modification which led to the improvement in corrosion resistance. Salt spray test was carried out using Alpha+ Salt Spray Testing Equipment for 13 days on the base and surface modified samples according to ASTM B117. A green layer from [CuCl2 and Cu46Cl24(OH)68-(H2O)4] was observed on the nonmodified specimen (could be patina and bronze disease) while the red layer [Cu2O] is still observed on the modified specimen. Adhesion test (using X-Cut Tape Adhesion test according to ASTM D3359) was also investigated.

Evolution Of Microstructure

New waterborne Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings with improved corrosion resistance were introduced in this study. The corrosion resistance of Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings was evaluated by electrochemical measurements and salt spray test. Evolution of microstructure and phase composition at different exposure time in salt spray test was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction technique. The results indicate that Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings provide effective sacrificial protection to the steel substrate but exhibit lower corrosion rate and higher corrosion resistance compared to zinc aluminum coatings. The dense continuous corrosion layer formed on Al-Zn-Si-RE coating acts as a barrier layer, limiting the transport of aggressive species towards the coating-substrate interface and the corrosion rate of the coating; Zinc aluminum hydroxy carbonates are the dominant components in the corrosion layer of Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings.

Waterborne Epoxy

In this paper, graphene oxide (GO) was grafted with sodium tripolyphosphate (STP) to achieve a new anti-corrosive pigment (STG) with homogenous dispersion in waterborne epoxy (EP). The results obtained from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) revealed that STP was successfully combined with GO by chemical bonding. The corrosion resistance of EP, GO/EP and STG/EP coatings on carbon steel substrates was investigated via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and salt spray test. The EIS results showed that the impedance value of coating with 0.7 wt.% STG reached 1.019 × 109 Ω∙cm2, which was considerably higher than that of neat waterborne EP coatings. Salt spray test results revealed once again that STG (0.7 wt.%)/EP coating had superior corrosion resistance. Besides, the STG (0.7 wt.%)/EP coated sample showed the highest adhesion strength between coating and substrate.
