Corrosion Evaluation and Durability Estimation of Aluminized Steel Drainage PipesAkhoondan, Mersedeh 01 January 2012 (has links)
Aluminized steel pipes are expected to have a long service life, e.g. 75 years. Spiral ribbed aluminized pipes (SRAP) have been widely specified and used by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) for drainage of runoff water. Confidence in the long term durability of SRAP has been challenged by recent unexpected early corrosion failures in various Florida locations. SRAP premature corrosion incidents have occurred in two modalities. Mode A has taken place in near-neutral soil environments and has often been associated with either gross manufacturing defects (i.e. helical cuts) or corrosion concentration at or near the ribs. Mode B took place in pipes in contact with limestone backfill and corrosion damage was in the form of perforations, not preferentially located at the ribs, and not necessarily associated with other deficiencies. These failures motivated this research. The objectives of this work are to establish to what extent the Mode A corrosion incidents can be ascribed to manufacturing defects, that can be rectified by appropriate quality control, as opposed to an intrinsic vulnerability to corrosion of regularly produced SRAP due to ordinary forming strains and to determine the mechanism responsible for Mode B corrosion including the role that limestone backfill played in that deterioration. To achieve those objectives, laboratory experiments were conducted to replicate the conditions for Mode A and Mode B. Overall, the findings of this and previous work suggest that much of the corrosion damage observed in the Mode A incidents were promoted more by manufacturing deficiencies and less by any possible inherent susceptibility of corrosion at the ribs of SRAP that was produced following appropriate quality control. Experiments to explore the causes of Mode B corrosion showed that high pH values, sufficient to cause dissolution of the passive film on aluminum, can develop under exposure of limestone to flowing natural water. The findings substantiate, for the first time, an important vulnerability of aluminized steel in limestone soils and provide an explanation for the rapid onset deterioration observed at the field under Mode B. The findings also provide strong evidence in support of service guidelines to disallow the use of limestone bedding for aluminized steel pipe, including SRAP.

Titanium-Zirconium-Niobium intermetallic composite coatings for orthopaedic applications.Baloyi, Nkele Martha January 2014 (has links)
M. Tech. Metallurgical Engineering / Ti6Al4V alloy is the leading material for hip replacement because of its biocompatibility, elastic modulus and good yield strength, but shows poor corrosion and wear properties in simulated body fluid. Thin coatings were fabricated on Ti6Al4V alloy using Zirconium, Niobium and Titanium reinforcements with the aid of Nd:YAG Rofin Sinar laser system. Niobium reinforcement produced the best coating that displayed the best corrosion resistance and percentage increase in wear resistance in simulated body fluid as compared to the substrate. Therefore, this coating will perform best as orthopaedic implant material.

Laser line scanning processing system for wrinkling in nation during coatingDoblar, Peter Anthony 20 July 2011 (has links)
One of the major limiting factors in fuel cell production is the time and effort that are required in the ink coating process of the Nafion film that is at the heart of what makes a fuel cell work. The principle reason that this issued has not been tackled by the industry at large is the inherent difficulties that arise. First and foremost is the rapid and extensive expansion of the material upon contact with the liquid ink causing the Nafion film to wrinkle while being processed. In the drive to help mitigate this issue it must be understood by what conditions and severity that wrinkling occurs. The method chosen to detect this was to develop a laser profile scanner to record and output the severity of any wrinkles present in the film. This thesis showcases and explains the laser scanning system designed specifically for this problem and material. / Mechanical Engineering / text

Wet etching of optical thin filmsEdström, Curt January 2010 (has links)
Evaluation of the wet etching properties of several different thin film oxidesgrown by physical vapour deposition was performed in this work. MgO, Al2O3,SiO2, TiO2, HfO2 ZrO2 and Y2O3 were coated on two types of substrates; Si andborosilicate glass and etching tests were performed in different etchingsolutions. MgF2 thin films have also been evaluated. Important aspects of the choice of the thin films was taken into account in orderto match to good optical properties such as refractive index (n), extinction coefficient (k) and optical thickness (TP) as well as good chemical properties in the wet etching process. A description is made of the physics of optical filters and how a combination of different oxides stacked onto each other can create interference filters. A description of the manufacturing process of the thin films where physical vapour deposition (PVD) was used is presented. Thermal shift of the optical spectra caused by porous coatings was investigated and analyses of the thin films by ellipsometry, surface profilometry and transmission spectrophotometry have been performed. The wet etching properties were evaluated by monitoring the transmission insituon transparent borosilicate glass substrates. A method of how to measure the wet etching rate for different thin films is described. A computer software was used to calculate the Pourbaix diagrams in order to understand the chemical behaviour of the etching solutions. The pH can have a significant impact on the etching behaviour. In case of TiO2, it can be dissolved in an alkaline solution of H2O2. The catalytically process behind this is evaluated. Etching rate for both Y2O3 andSiO2 were matched by adjusting the etchant concentration as a case example. The group IVB oxides are difficult to etch. The catalytic etching of TiO2 with peroxide is slow but detectable. Al2O3, Y2O3 and MgO are reasonably easy to etch but have too low refractive indices to be useful in multilayer optical filters. The In-situ etching instrument was found to be very useful for measuring etching rates. / Utvärdering av våtkemiska egenskaper för flera olika oxidtunnfilmer utfördes idetta arbete på tunnfilmer av MgO, Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, HfO2 ZrO2 and Y2O3 vakuumdeponerade på både kiselwafers och borosilikatglas. Etstester gjordes med ett flertal etslösningar. Även MgF2-tunnfilmer utvärderades. Både optiska och kemiska egenskaper togs i beaktande vid utvärderingen av tunnfilmerna. De optiska lagar som gäller för tunnfilmer redovisas, bl a hur kombinationer av olika oxider kan skapa interferrensfilter. En beskrivning av tillverkningsprocessen varvid PVD användes presenteras. Termiskt skift av det optiska transmissionsspektrat orsakat av porositet undersöktes. Analyser av tunnfilmerna med ellipsometri, profilometri och transmissions spektroskopi utfördes. Våtetsningsegenskaperna utvärderades genom att mäta in-situ vid etsprocessen på transparenta borosilikatglassubstrat. Metoden för att mäta etshastigheten för olika oxider är beskriven. Datorberäkningar av pourbaixdiagram användes för att skapa en förståelse av de kemiska egenskaperna för etslösningarna. Etsegenskaperna påverkas till stordel av lösningens pH. TiO2 kan etsas i basisk lösning av peroxid. Denna process utvärderades, likaså utvärderades etshasigheten för Y2O3 och SiO2 för att erhålla matchande par avoxider som en fallstudie. Grupp IVB oxiderna är mycket svåra att etsa. Katalytisk etsning av TiO2 med peroxid är detekterbar men långsam. Al2O3, Y2O3 och MgO är förhållandevis enkla att etsa men har för låga brytningsindex för att var praktiskt använbara i optiska multilagerfilter. In-situ etsinstrumentet befanns vara ett utmärkt verktyg för att mäta etshastigheten för tunnfilmer.
