This present research work is taken to estimate the corrosion rate of zinc coated mild steel coupling with using of Design of Experiments (DOE). Now a day’s mild steel materials are simply corroded in the all medium including atmospheric conditions. Overcome of this planed to applying the zinc coating on the mild steel material. In this study considered of normal use of mild steel coupling for the industrial applications. Main goal of this study to evaluate the Coating thickness (µm), Change of mass (g) and Corrosion rate (mm/y) of the coupling after coating. The L16 Orthogonal array of Taguchi analysis is engaged to find the response values. The different process parameters are considered for to analysis of electroplating characteristics, corrosion rate. Process parameters are namely current density (0.3 amps/ dm2,0.5 amps/ dm2,0.7 amps/ dm2 and 0.9 amps/ dm2), concentration of Zinc (10 g/L, 12 g/L, 14 g/L and 16 g/L), coating time (45 min, 60 min, 75 min and 90 min) and temperature (20 oC, 30 oC, 40 oC and 50 oC).

The application of zinc coating as a protective film to the mild steel against corrosion attack in atmospheric and seawater environment was studied. The objective of this study is to evaluate the corrosion performance of mild steel coated by different thickness of zinc under salt spray and also immersion test. The corrosion measurement test was performed by weight loss and potentiodynamic polarization. From the experimental study, it was found that the corrosion rate of mild steel is inversely proportional to the zinc coating thickness. The result also showed that the corrosion rate of mild steel in the salt spray test is higher than the immersion test.

Newly developed D2 steel is widely used for various advanced engineering applications. Machining of D2 steel to obtain desired quality responses has immense importance for the effective utilization of these materials for advanced industrial applications like aerospace, marine, automobile, etc. Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) is used to machine difficult to machine materials and to produce sophisticated features with better dimensional accuracy. Obtaining the fine surface roughness in WEDM has highly depends on correct selection of process parameters. In the present work, experimental investigation was planned to study the effects of WEDM input parameters on surface roughness (Ra) of D2 steel. Experimental runs were conducted by using L16 orthogonal array of Taguchi method. The analysis of variance was employed to determine the influences of process parameters on Ra. Response surface methodology (RSM) and cuckoo search optimization (CSO) algorithm had been used to model and optimize the surface roughness. From the study, it was found that Ra value had improved as compared to initial experimental runs.

The study expressed the statistical investigation in depth of penetration on mild steel cladding weld geometry. The use of analytical tools and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were use to investigate the statistical influence of the mild steel cladding weld process parameters that gives rise to the geometry of the mild steel material. The results portray and express the statistical effects, variations and models of the process parameters and the response parameter in the system the parameters used are significant, while the model developed has a significance value of 0.48%. Finally, the need for this research has shown the essence of statistical investigation and mathematical modeling for depth of penetration on mild steel cladding weld metal geometry which give solutions to the system and more appropriate suggestions that will influence the decision making on mild steel metal utilization.

 Laser welding input parameters play a major role in determining the quality of a weld joint. In the nuclear power plants, hybrid structures of nickel and steel alloys offer an advantage in comparison to conventional materials, e.g. in heat exchanger tube areas. Due to demand in the nuclear industry for new material combinations based on commercially available and qualified materials, research into thermal joining of dissimilar materials has been initiated. The use of laser for joining mild steel / nickel with 316L austenitic stainless steel filler material and structures offers some advantages compared with usual thermal joining processes. The main aim is the control of phase formation, which occurs during thermal joining of mild steel to nickel. In this research work microstructure study and optimization of laser welding of mild steel / nickel sheets with wire feeding was done using Central Composite Design(CCD) and Response Surface Methodology (RSM) are used to build the mathematical model. By means of the laser power, welding speed and pulse width on the tensile strength model was developed and tested by analysis of variance method (ANOVA), the relationship between process parameters and output response and interaction among the process parameters are analyzed and discussed in detail. The scanning electron microscopes (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) technique were used for microstructure study of the bi-metal and tri-metal joints of the weld.

Background: A binary mixture of sesame and castor oil was used for reducing the corrosion rate of mild steel in crude oil environments. This study investigated the corrosion behavior of a binary mixture of sesame and castor oil as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in crude oil. Different parameters such as immersion time, the concentration of inhibitor and pH were investigated for corrosion of mild steel. Methods: Experimental analysis indicates that a passive layer of the inhibitor formed over the surface of mild steel thereby reducing the corrosion rate. This was demonstrated by varying different process parameters such as the concentration of binary inhibitor, pH and time using two different statistical models; the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and the Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Results: From the results, it was observed that ANN was a better predictive tool to determine the corrosion rate of mild steel than the RSM. Conclusion: Overall, both the models prove that relative to the process parameters used, the importance level of the parameters was Time < Concentration of binary inhibitor < pH.

The corrosion inhibition characteristics of two medicinal molecules phenylalanine and rutin on mild steel in 1.0M Hydrochloric acid were evaluated using gravimetric method. Corrosion inhibition efficiency of 83.78 and 90.40 % was obtained respectively after seven days. However, phenylalanine showed weak accumulative higher corrosion inhibition efficiency. The presence of both molecules in the corrosive environment reduced the corrosion rate constant and increased the material half-life. Thermodynamic data calculated suggests a spontaneous adsorption of the molecules on the mild steel’s surface.

: Isatin is an endogenous and a significant category of fused heterocyclic component, widely been a part of several potential biologically useful synthetics. Since its discovery, tons of research work has been conducted with respect to the synthesis, chemical properties, and biological and industrial applications. It contains indole nucleus having both lactam and keto moiety which while being a part of a molecular framework exerted several biological effects, viz.; antimicrobial, antitubercular, anticonvulsant, anticancer etc. Isatin derivatives are synthetically significant substrates, which can be utilized for the synthesis of huge diversified chemical entities of which few members emerged to be a drug. The reason for this review is to provide extensive information pertaining to the chemistry and its significance in altering several pathological states of isatin and its derivatives. A Structure Activity Relationships study thus developed through a gamut of scientific information indicates the importance of mostly electron withdrawing groups, halogens, nitro, alkoxy and to a minor extent groups with positive inductive effects, such as methyl at position 1, 5, 6 and 7 of isatin in alleviating several clinical conditions. It is also observed from the survey that the presence of two oxo groups at position 2 and 3 sometimes become insignificant as fusion with a heterocycle at those position resulted in a biologically relevant compound.
