Phosphating is the most widely used metal pretreatment process for the surface treatment
and finishing of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Due to its economy, speed of operation and …

Steel substrates were chemically treated by room temperature zinc phosphate conversion
coating. Poly (vinyl) alcohol (PVA) was added to the phosphate solution as a green …

In this investigation the viability of nickel substitution by niobium in zinc phosphate (PZn)
baths has been studied. Samples of carbon steel (SAE 1010) were phosphated in two baths …

The use of intumescent coatings has proved to be an efficient alternative for the protection of
metallic substrates against fire. Benzoxazine is a type of phenolic resin of great interest for …

Phosphating and corrosion inhibitors are commonly used for corrosion prevention of metallic
materials, mainly carbon steels. In this study, the effect of benzotriazole (BTAH) added to a …

It is a challenge to build a hybrid energy storage system by combining the power of
supercapacitors with the energy of batteries. In this work, an effective and promising …

In civil construction, intumescent coatings are widely used in steel structures, because in a
fire, this material loses approximately half of its elastic modulus at 500° C. The use of these …

Biodegradable metallic implants are of significant importance in the replacement of bones or
the repair of bone defects. Iron-phosphate-coated carbonyl iron powder (Fe/P) was prepared …

In this study, the viability of nickel replacement in zinc phosphate baths by niobium
ammonium oxalate (Ox) and benzotriazole (BTAH) was studied. Samples of carbon steel …

Determination of mechanical state of thermal oxide growing during high temperature
oxidation is a challenge. Fabrication of nanogauges for monitoring during high temperature …
