D. Tech. Chemical, Metallurgical and Materials Engineering / Discusses the objective of this present study is to manufacture particulate-strengthening Zn-Al-SnO2-TiO2 composite alloy on mild steel from chloride and sulphate baths with the target of improving mechanical and anti-corrosion, wear properties for automotive and decorative applications. Sub-Objectives:To study the effect of Zn-Al-SnO2-TiO2 composite properties on mild steel substrate To investigate the novel multifunctional thin films evolution formed on mild steel and their tribological properties. To investigate thermo-mechanical recrystallization behaviour and its thermal instability.To study the anti-corrosion resistance performance of the electrofabricated quaternary Zn-Al-SnO2-TiO2 coatings.To draw attention to the functional processing parameters of Zn-Al-SnO2-TiO2 produced coatings for high durability.
