Abstract In order to improve the performance of Galvalume coating, the expected microstructure and the better property could be obtained by adding 1∼3% Magnesium into Galvalume coating (55%Al-Zn). In this paper, effect of magnesium on the corrosion resistance of 55%Al-Zn coating was studied. The morphology and microstructure of coatings, polarization curve and surface corrosion of two different kinds of samples were analysed by SEM, EDS, electrochemistry workstation and salt spray test. The results show that the numbers of surface spangles by adding 2% magnesium are not changed obviously; the corrosion resistance of 55% Al-Zn-2%Mg coating becomes much better.

A novel phenomenon known as Industry X.0 is becoming extremely popular for digitizing and reinventing business organizations through the adaption of rapid and dynamic technological, innovational, and organizational changes for attaining the profitable revenue. This work investigates the die-casted commercially pure aluminum alloyed with 9% silicon and 3% copper (AlSi9Cu3) that is produced through the gravity die casting process. Further, the degradation of surface coating on die-casted AlSi9Cu3 alloy was explored. The acrylic paint electrodeposition (ED) coat, 2-coat polyester without primer and 3-coat polyester with epoxy primer powder coatings were used in this study. Moreover, the 3.5 wt.% of sodium chloride (3.5 wt.% of NaCl) test solution was used for electrochemical and salt spray test and the tools used to assess electrochemical properties were electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization, and neutral salt spray test (NSS). The microstructure of AlSi9Cu3 after corrosion exposure was investigated; also, the microstructure of coated and uncoated AlSi9Cu3 samples was analyzed by SEM microscopy after corrosion exposure. Besides, the electrochemical studies were also carried out on the Al alloy die casting. It was found that acrylic paint ED coatings exhibited higher corrosion resistance than 2-coat polyester without primer & 3-coat polyester with epoxy primer powder coatings. Acrylic paint ED coating showed higher corrosion resistance in AC and a lower value in DC and 3-coat polyester with epoxy primer powder coating displayed higher corrosion resistance in DC and a lower value in AC.

Entre as ligas não ferrosas, as ligas de zamac são as mais utilizadas para a fundição e vêm sendo aplicadas na substituição de peças de latão, utilizadas industrialmente em metais sanitários. O zamac apresenta propriedades mecânicas semelhantes às do latão, porém com custo inferior. Entretanto, a alta porosidade destas ligas, impede que tratamentos superficiais garantam bom acabamento e resistência à corrosão. Visando melhorar o desempenho, frente à corrosão de peças de zamac, o objetivo do presente trabalho é avaliar o processo de diferentes tratamentos de superfície dos metais sanitários produzidos em zamac. As amostras foram injetadas sobre pressão e submetidas a diferentes tratamentos superficiais (tratamento mecânico, tratamento químico, cobre alcalino, cobre ácido, níquel, cromo). Os corpos de prova foram expostos a um meio agressivo, por meio de nevoa salina a fim de analisar a resistência à corrosão das peças, além de análises de polarização, metalografia e microdureza. Observou-se que a maior incidência de corrosão ocorreu nas partes de injeção e solda da peça, as amostras tratadas com níquel e cromo demonstraram o melhor desemprenho frente a resistência a corrosão.Palavras-chave: Zamac. Metais sanitários. Corrosão.ABSTRACTAmong the non ferrous alloys, zamak are the most used for casting and have been applied to substitute brass parts, industrially utilized in sanitary metals. The zamak presents mechanical properties similar to brass, however with lower cost. Meanwhile, the high porosity of these alloys hinders the superficial treatments ensure good finishing and corrosion resistance. Aiming to improve the performance against corrosion of zamak parts, this work evaluates the process of different superficial treatments of sanitary metals produced with zamak. The samples were injected under pressure and submitted to different superficial treatments (mechanical, chemical, alkaline copper, acid copper, nickel and chromium). The specimens were exposed to an aggressive medium through salt spray test to evaluate the corrosion resistance, and the following analysis: polarization, metallography and microhardness. It was observed that the higher corrosion incidence occurred on the injection and weld regions. The samples treated with nickel and chromium demonstrated better performance of corrosion resistance.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the mechanical and corrosion behaviors of selective laser melting (SLM) 30CrMnSiA steel. Design/methodology/approach The microstructure, mechanical behavior and corrosion resistance of SLM 30CrMnSiA steel were studied by electrochemical test and immersion experiment. Findings The results showed that the microstructure of SLM 30CrMnSiA steel contained equiaxed fine (25.0 µm) ferrite and lamellar pearlite. The tensile strength of SLM 30CrMnSiA steel under the process parameters is 1,447 MPa and the elongation is 7.5%. As the immersion/salt spray test time increased to 15 days/48 h, corrosion mainly occurred in the local position of the sample and corrosion resistance decreased. When the immersion/salt spray test time increased to 30 days/168 h, the corrosion production covered the surface of the samples and the corrosion resistance increased. Originality/value The paper can guide the application and in situ repair for low-alloy steel by additive manufacturing.

Abstract The corrosion resistance of two steel coatings (inorganic zinc-rich coating and thermal-spray zinc coating) was studied in detail by using the electrochemical and salt spray test, and the salt spray corrosion thickness was calculated by the time-varying equation established from the mathematical fitting method. The result show that the corrosion mechanism of the two types of coatings was the same that based on the sacrificed of zinc through anodizing phenomenon. The main reason for the difference of corrosion resistance between the two anticorrosive coatings was that the coating density and shielding effect of corrosion products were different. The 7500-hours salt spray test showed that the corrosion rates and microstructure characteristics of both types of zinc coatings were homogeneous on the premise of ensuring coating reliability. The time-varying equation can be used to evaluate the service life of the zinc coatings and judge their corrosion resistance quickly, that providing theoretical support for the maintenance of steel structures as well as the accelerated selection and design of coating formulations.

This study investigated the corrosion resistance of oil impregnated anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) surfaces of aluminum 7075 for subsea application. Although aluminum 7075 has high strength, it is scarcely used in the subsea industry because of its corrosion issue. Some treatment of aluminum 7075 is required for subsea application. In this study not only a plate shape but also a cylindrical shape were investigated because a cylindrical shape is frequently used in the subsea industry for electronic device housing. Contact angles of bare aluminum and oil impregnated AAO surfaces of aluminum 7075 were measured after a salt spray test and a pressure test. The results showed that the contact angle of bare aluminum was considerably decreased after the salt spray test, whereas the oil impregnated AAO surface presented a relatively high contact angle after the salt spray test and the pressure test. These results showed that the corrosion resistance of aluminum 7075 could be enhanced by oil impregnation on the AAO surface, and thus can be utilized in the subsea industry.

New waterborne Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings with improved corrosion resistance were introduced in this study. The corrosion resistance of Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings was evaluated by electrochemical measurements and salt spray test. Evolution of microstructure and phase composition at different exposure time in salt spray test was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction technique. The results indicate that Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings provide effective sacrificial protection to the steel substrate but exhibit lower corrosion rate and higher corrosion resistance compared to zinc aluminum coatings. The dense continuous corrosion layer formed on Al-Zn-Si-RE coating acts as a barrier layer, limiting the transport of aggressive species towards the coating-substrate interface and the corrosion rate of the coating; Zinc aluminum hydroxy carbonates are the dominant components in the corrosion layer of Al-Zn-Si-RE coatings.
