In the work presented in this manuscript, a self-organized TiO2 nanotube array film was produced by electrochemical anodization of a Ti-V alloy in an electrolyte containing NH4F/H3PO4 and then annealed at different ...

Ni-B coatings are promising materials for several applications in electronics, nuclear, automotive, aerospace, petrochemical and food industries owing to their exceptional mechanical and chemical properties such as, high ...

This study examines the influence of thin layer coatings of CrAlTiN and CrN/NbN, deposited via physical vapor, on the biocompatibility, mechanical, tribological, and corrosion properties of stainless steel 304. The ...

Corrosion prevention in biomaterials has become crucial particularly to overcome inflammation and allergic reactions caused by the biomaterials' implants towards the human body. When these metal implants contacted with ...

Fiber-reinforced composite repairs are becoming widely used as an alternative to the installation of welded, full-encirclement sleeves for repair of oil and gas transmission/transportation pipelines. The primary advantage ...

The present study describes the synthesis of HA/rGO/Pd nanocomposite thin film coating on stainless steel 304 using electrodeposition method. In this regard, an attempt is made to investigate the corrosion and biocompatibility ...

Ni-B/Y 2 O 3 composite coatings were developed through an electrodeposition process to study the effect of addition of Y 2 O 3 particles on structure, surface, thermal, mechanical, and anticorrosion properties of Ni-B ...

Steel-made infrastructures have been expanding at an incredible rate worldwide and are critical for the expansion and operation of countless industries. Steel is susceptible to corrosion failures, particularly in aggressive ...

Ni-P/TiC nanocomposite coatings, including different concentrations of TiC nanoparticles (TCNPs) were developed on HSLA (high strength low alloy steel) substrates through the pulse electrodeposition (PED) process. The ...

In operation, pipelines are increasingly used worldwide to meet higher transportation demands for strategic fluids while optimizing costs. Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite is used in many pipeline industries of ...
