Porém, por ser este um elemento tóxico, vários estudos visando a substituição do procedimento de cromatização vêm sendo realizados. As resinas de polissiloxanos e materiais híbridos organo-inorgânicos preparados pelo processo sol-gel, podem vir a ser um excelente substituinte ao processo de cromatização. Neste trabalho, filmes híbridos organo-inorgânico e filmes de silicone foram aplicados em aço galvanizado e em camadas de Zn-Fe. Os revestimentos foram então avaliados através de Espectroscopia de Impedância Eletroquímica. Os dados obtidos pela Espectroscopia foram modelados através de um circuito equivalente, permitindo a obtenção dos parâmetros eletroquímicos para os sistemas avaliados. Além disso, o potencial em circuito aberto, para os diferentes sistemas, foi monitorado durante processo de desgaste em sistema pino-disco em solução de NaCI 3%. Os revestimentos foram comparados em termos de resistência à corrosão e coeficiente de fricção. Os resultados mostram um bom desempenho para os revestimentos como protetores de corrosão e o comportamento destes mostraram-se dependente do tipo de revestimento metálico que foi aplicado no aço / Abstract: Chromating pre-treatments have been widely used to improve galvanized steel corrosion resistance. However, due to the high toxicity of chromate ions, chromatation pre-treatments tend to be banned and, in last years, alternative coating systems are under investigation. Recently, polysiloxanes and hybrids materiais by the sol-gel process have been extensively investigated. These materiais may be considered as promising substitutes for chromatation pre-treatments. In this work organic-inorganic hybrid materiais and silicone films have been prepared and applied on galvanized steel and on steeJ electroplated with a Zn-Fe alloy. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) was used as a technique for the evaluation of the corrosion mechanisms of the coating systems and the EIS data was fitted to an equivalent circuit from which the electrochemical parameters were obtained. Additionally, the evolution of open circuit potential, for samples, was monitored during alternative reciprocating sliding against an alumina pin in a 3% NaCl solution. The behaviour of the coatings has been compared in terms of corrosion potential and friction coefficient. Results show the protective character of the hybrid films and silicon resin films, when compared with uncovered specimens. The overall performance of the coating systems appears to be highly dependent on the type of metallic coating applied to the steel / Doutorado / Materiais e Processos de Fabricação / Doutor em Engenharia Mecânica

Kontroll av zinkskikt på monterat räckesmaterial som görs ute i fält saknar en fastställd metod. Zinktjockleken har ett minimum tjocklekskrav enligt den svenska standarden ISO 1461:2009, som bestäms av dimensionen på ståldetaljens tjocklek. Trafikverket begär att med hjälp av detta examensarbete kunna begränsa antal mätningar på plats, då kan det ta allt för mycket tid och arbetsresurser i fall det skulle behövas kontroll av väg-och bro räckesanläggningar från beställaren. Sannolikhetsläran och stickprov i statistik hjälper oss att begränsa antalet mätningarna på skyddsanordningarna som görs ute i fält. Med hjälp av normalfördelning kommer man fram till den efter strävade metoden, som med en rimlig arbetsinsats ger en rättvisbild av skikttjockleken på monterat räckesmaterial. Vid variation av varmförzinkaren på vägräckesanläggningar undersöker man varje leverantörs räckesdel för sig, alltså man mäter zinktjockleken på en varmförzikare för sig, kontrollerar zinkskiktstjockleken på de och tar slutsatser sedan går man vidare till nästa tillverkare. Om vägräckena är mindre än 30 stycken mäter man zinktjockleken på respektive anläggning. För beräkning av zinkskiktstjockleken på monterad räckesmaterial börjar man med 30 mätningar och användning av den centrala gränsvärde satsen för att approximera till normalfördelning och analysera resultatet. Det slutliga resultatet av examensarbetet är ett Excelprogram med inmatade formler. Excel programmet är ett hjälpmedel för framtagning av 95 % konfidensintervall. Med hjälp av detta intervall kan man ta slutsatser om zinkskiktet på vägräckena uppfyller kravet eller inte och kunna komma fram till ett resultat. Om kravet ligger i intervallet eller store än intervallet är materialet godkänt. / Control of zinc coating on assembled railing materials made on site lacks a common methodology. Zinc coating should have a minimum thickness requirements according to the Swedish standard ISO 1461:2009, which is determined by the dimension of the steel thickness. Trafikverket expects that with help from this thesis it could limit the number of measurements on site, otherwise it will take too much time and labor resources, in case control of road and bridge railing systems are required from the customer.  Probabilities and sampling in statistics helps us to limit the number of measurements of the protective devices that are made in the field. Using normal distribution, one arrive at the element of method that with reasonable effort gives a fair picture of the layer thickness of the assembled railing materials. Upon variation of the galvanizers on road barrier systems, each part is investigated separately by measuring zinc thickness of a galvanizers, checking the zinc coating thickness on them, take conclusions and later on investigate the next manufacturer. If a crash barrier is less than 30 pieces, the zinc coating thickness is measured at each facility by itself. For calculation of the zinc coating thickness on a mounted railing material one begins with 30 measurements and the use of the central limit theorem to approximate it to normal distribution and analyze the results. The final result of the thesis is an Excel program with input formulas. The Excel program is a tool for producing 95% confidence interval. Using this interval, one can make conclusions that if the zinc coating on a crash barrier fulfills the requirement or not and later on be able to come up with a result. If the requirement is in the interval or larger than the interval, the material is approved.
