Zinc phosphate micro flakes as new corrosion inhibition additives in coatings and paints

Perre E., Albayrak S., Becker-Willinger C., INM - Leibniz Institute for New Materials, DE

Corrosion protection is a constant concern to steel manufacturers and users. Various processes were developed in the past to provide corrosion protection for steel such as metallic layers like e.g. zinc, coating of the metal [...]

Environmentally Friendly Protective Coatings for Metals and Alloys

Ryabova E., Dawley J., Ryabov V., Ryabova E., Mah C., Advenira Enterprises, Inc., US

The operation and maintenance of machines and mechanisms, as well as outdoor structures, conducted by various industries across the board is a costly process due to corrosion of metals and/or alloys, from which the vast [...]

Facile Spray Coating in Preparing Anisotropic Composites

Song K., Polak R., Abdalla Askar K., Rubner M.F., Cohen R.E., MIT, US

Anisotropy has been taken advantage in composites to achieve specific mechanical, electrical, magnetic and other functional properties. In composite mechanics, orientation of fiber in polymer matrix will reinforce the composites to the greatest potential along [...]

Durable Hydrophobic Coatings for Corrosion Protection of Metallic Materials

Koene B.E., Martin R., Goff A., Hay J., Luna Innovations, US

Luna has developed an exceptionally durable, transparent, fluid resistant coating for corrosion mitigation on selected metals and alloys. There have been many recent research and commercial efforts in the area of superhydrophobic or water repellent [...]

Nanofiller-modified microfibrillar composites: origin of complex effect of nanoparticles with different geometry

Kelnar I., Kratochvíl J., Padovec Z., Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, CZ

Microfibrillar composites (MFCs) are polymer – polymer composites prepared by drawing of suitable polymer blends, where application of various nanofillers have strong potential to eliminate basic disadvantage of MFC arising from limited parameters of polymer [...]

Properties of Multifunctional Hybrid Carbon Nanotube/ Carbon Fiber Polymer Matrix Composites

Cano R.J., Kang J.H., Grimsley B.W., Ratcliffe J.G., Siochi E.J., NASA Langley Research Center, US

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been studied extensively since their discovery and demonstrated at the nanoscale to have superior mechanical, electrical and thermal properties in comparison to micro and macro scale properties of conventional engineering materials. [...]
