文摘The high-temperature interaction of nanostructured Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) environmental barrier coatings(EBCs)with calcium-magnesium-aluminosilicate(CMAS)was investigated at 1400℃ for 1,10,25,and 50 h to evaluate the coating’s resistance to CMAS corrosion.The results indicate a phase transformation over time,transitioning from Ca_(2)Lu_(8)(SiO_(4))6O_(2) apatite and Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) to solely Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7).The interaction of the Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) coating with the CMAS melts was divided into three stages based on the corrosion reaction behavior.The delamination cracks were distributed throughout the interface between the Si bond layer and Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) layer after corroded at 1400℃ for 50 h,signifying coating failure.In addition,the influence of monosilicates,disilicates,and corrosion duration on the recession layer thickness was analyzed by comparing previous reports on RE_(2)SiO_(5)/RE_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) coatings(RE=Gd,Yb,Lu,Er).Furthermore,the variation in the thermally grown oxide layer thickness in CMAS-corroded Lu_(2)Si_(2)O_(7) coatings was systematically investigated.

文摘An advanced AlCrSiN/AlCrN/CrN/Cr multilayer coating was developed via hybrid multiarc ion plating and high-power impulse magnetron sputtering.The multilayer design enhanced the substrate-coating compatibility,achieving a critical load of 87.8 N.Silicon doping induced nanocrystallization and amorphization,increasing the hardness to 26 GPa.At high temperatures,a nanoscale Cr-rich(Cr,Al)_(2)O_(3) layer was formed,effectively inhibiting oxygen diffusion.The coating underwent unique phase transformations,during which Cr_(2)N and amorphous Si3N4 were converted into dispersed SiCr_(3) nanoparticles,which stabilized Cr atoms and suppressed their outward diffusion.Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations revealed that Cr atoms exhibited higher chemical activity and oxygen-capture capability than Al atoms and Si atoms served as diffusion barriers by pinning onto the oxidized surface,considerably improving the oxidation resistance of the coating.

文摘This study explores the dynamic contact response of a viscoelastic functionally graded material(FGM)-coated half-plane under a rigid flat punch subjected to a time-harmonic vertical force.The elastic modulus and mass density of the FGM coating vary exponentially along the thickness direction.The FGM coating and the homogeneous half-plane possess viscoelastic properties,which are described by a linearly hysteretic damping model.By applying the asymptotic method and the Fourier integral transform technique,the contact problem is converted into a Cauchy singular integral equation.The effects of excitation frequency,gradient index,damping factor ratio,and punch width on the vertical impedance and dynamic contact stress are analyzed.The results indicate that adjusting the gradient index of the FGM coating can significantly affect the contact stress and vertical impedance.

文摘TiB_(2)coatings can significantly enhance the high-temperature oxidation resistance of molybdenum,which would broaden the application range of molybdenum and alloys thereof.However,traditional methods for preparing TiB_(2)coatings have disadvantages such as high equipment costs,complicated processes,and highly toxic gas emissions.This paper proposes an environmentally friendly method,which requires inexpensive equipment and simple processing,for preparing TiB_(2)coating on molybdenum via electrophoretic deposition within Na3AlF6-based molten salts.The produced TiB_(2)layer had an approximate thickness of 60μm and exhibited high density,outstanding hardness(38.2 GPa)and robust adhesion strength(51 N).Additionally,high-temperature oxidation experiments revealed that,at900℃,the TiB_(2)coating provided effective protection to the molybdenum substrate against oxidation for 3 h.This result indicates that the TiB_(2)coating prepared on molybdenum using molten salt electrophoretic deposition possesses good high-temperature oxidation resistance.

文摘Waterborne acrylic coatings are widely utilized due to their cost-effectiveness,high transparency,strong resistance to weather and chemicals,impressive mechanical properties,and excellent adhesion to various substrates.In these coatings,a reactive emulsifier containing phosphate groups can be integrated into the molecular chain during polymerization,which enhances the coating's compactness and corrosion resistance.This work focuses on the synthesis of styrene-butyl acrylate(St-BA)latex and methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate(MMA-BA)latex using the reactive phosphate emulsifier ANPEO_(10)-P_(1) through seed emulsion polymerization,achieving a conversion rate of approximately 99%and a solid content close to 50%.The resulting coatings from St-BA and MMA-BA latexes demonstrated long-term corrosion protection for carbon steel and aluminum alloy due to in-situ phosphatization,effectively preventing flash rust.Notably,the MMA-BA coating exhibited remarkable durability,enduring immersion for up to 1224 h(51 d)on Q 235 carbon steel before reaching the failure threshold(|Z|0.01 Hz£106Ω·cm^(2))on Q 235 carbon steel.On 5052 aluminum alloy,the St-BA coating maintained|Z|0.01 Hz>10^(8)Ω·cm^(2) for 480 h(20 d).Furthermore,the corrosion resistance of St-BA and MMA BA coatings on Q 235 steel sheet and 5052 aluminum alloy surpassed that of commercially available MMA-BA and St BA coatings after immersion in a 3.5 wt%NaCl aqueous solution.This work also delves into the anticorrosion mechanism of MMA-BA and St-BA coatings.

文摘Zwitterion-based materials by virtue of their special physical and chemical characteristics have attracted researchers to utilize them for fabricating functional coatings. The simultaneous presence of positive and negative charges renders the zwitterion-based materials with electrostatically induced hydration properties, which enables a high resistance towards oily pollutants, nonspecific protein adsorption, bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. This review starts from the working mechanism of zwitterions and covers the fabrication strategies of zwitterion-based functional coatings, namely the zwitterion-bearing binder route, the zwitterion-bearing additive route and the post-generation of coatings containing zwitterionic precursors. The applications of zwitterion-based functional coatings are discussed, including medical implants, marine antifouling and oil-resistant coatings, with focus on the relevant mechanisms of the zwitterion-containing coatings for a specific performance. Finally, some comments and perspectives on the current situation and future development of zwitterion-based functional coatings are given.

文摘The corrosion degradation of organic coatings in tropical marine atmospheric environments results in substantial economic losses across various industries.The complexity of a dynamic environment,combined with high costs,extended experimental periods,and limited data,places a limit on the comprehension of this process.This study addresses this challenge by investigating the corrosion de-gradation of damaged organic coatings in a tropical marine environment using an atmospheric corrosion monitoring sensor and a random forest(RF)model.For damage simulation,a polyurethane coating applied to a Fe/graphite corrosion sensor was intentionally scratched and exposed to the marine atmosphere for over one year.Pearson correlation analysis was performed for the collection and filtering of en-vironmental and corrosion current data.According to the RF model,the following specific conditions contributed to accelerated degrada-tion:relative humidity(RH)above 80%and temperatures below 22.5℃,with the risk increasing significantly when RH exceeded 90%.High RH and temperature exhibited a cumulative effect on coating degradation.A high risk of corrosion occurred in the nighttime.The RF model was also used to predict the coating degradation process using environmental data as input parameters,with the accuracy show-ing improvement when the duration of influential environmental ranges was considered.

文摘Magnesium alloys are promising candidates for bio-implant applications due to their biodegradability and biocompati-bility.However,their rapid corrosion remains a critical limitation.This study presents the development of a multifunctional nanocomposite coating designed to enhance the corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties of magnesium alloy im-plants.The coating comprisedγ-cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks(γ-CD MOFs)decorated with TiO_(2)@Ag core-shell nanoparticles,embedded in a polycaprolactone(PCL)matrix.Immersion tests in a simulated body fluid(SBF)revealed an initially higher corrosion rate for the PCL-TiO_(2)@Ag/γ-CD MOF coating compared to the coating without TiO_(2)@Ag nanopar-ticles;however,it demonstrated significant improvement over time.After five days,the corrosion inhibition reached 95.44%,with the corrosion rate decreasing to 1.70 mpy.Additionally,the composite coating exhibited strong antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli,Pseudomonas,and Staphylococcus aureus.Furthermore,MTT assays indicated that the coating facili-tated the growth and proliferation of osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells,confirming its nontoxicity and biocompatibility.These findings highlight the potential of the PCL-TiO_(2)@Ag/γ-CD MOF nanocomposite as a biocompatible,antibacterial,and cor-rosion-resistant coating for biodegradable magnesium implants,offering a promising solution for biomedical applications.

文摘The presence of clay coatings on the surfaces of quartz grains can play a pivotal role in determining the porosity and permeability of sandstone reservoirs,thus directly impacting their reservoir quality.This study employs a multiphase-field model of syntaxial quartz cementation to explore the effects of clay coatings on quartz cement volumes,porosity,permeability,and their interrelations in sandstone formations.To generate various patterns of clay coatings on quartz grains within three-dimensional(3D)digital sandstone grain packs,a pre-processing toolchain is developed.Through numerical simulation experiments involving syntaxial overgrowth cementation on both single crystals and multigrain packs,the main coating parameters controlling quartz cement volume are elucidated.Such parameters include the growth of exposed pyramidal faces,lateral encasement,coating coverage,and coating pattern,etc.The coating pattern has a remarkable impact on cementation,with the layered coatings corresponding to fast cement growth rates.The coating coverage is positively correlated with the porosity and permeability of sandstone.The cement growth rate of quartz crystals is the lowest in the vertical orientation,and in the middle to late stages of evolution,it is faster in the diagonal orientation than in the horizontal orientation.Through comparing the simulated results of dynamic evolution process with the actual features,it is found that the simulated coating patterns after 20 d and 40 d show clear similarities with natural samples,proving the validity of the proposed three-dimensional numerical modeling of coatings.The methodology and findings presented contribute to improved reservoir characterization and predictive modeling of sandstone formations.

文摘Oxidation behavior of NiCrAlY nanocrystalline coatings with different Cr contents at 1050 and 1150℃is investigated.The results indicate that Al2O3 scales can be formed on NiCrAlY nanocrystalline coatings after oxidation at high temperature.And their formation and thickening cannot be affected by the change of Cr contents in NiCrAlY coatings.During service,Cr in the coating can affect the microstructure of Ni-based single crystal superalloy.At 1050℃,Cr in the coating can diffuse into the superalloy,destroy its microstructure,and lead to the formation of interdiffusion zone and the precipitation of needle-like topologically closed-packed phase.The higher the Cr content in NiCrAlY the coating is,the more obvious the phenomenon is.However,after oxidation at 1150℃for 100 h,no obvious changes were observed in the microstructure of CMSX-4 single crystal superalloy beneath the three kinds of NiCrAlY nanocrystalline coatings.
