Ternary iron–tungsten–phosphorus (Fe–W–P) coatings were electrodeposited with different sodium tungstate (NaWO4·2H2O) concentration on stainless steel 316 L substrate. These coatings were characterized by energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The friction and wear behavior of these coatings were investigated using ball-on-disk tribometer under dry conditions. This study reveals a nanocrystalline and nodular structure with nanometric grain size of the deposited alloy. The maximum level of incorporation of tungsten (W) is about 29.54 at %. It was obtained with 0.5 M of sodium tungstate concentration, and it increases the microhardness of the coatings. Moreover, it was found that Fe–W–P coatings had significantly improved the tribological properties of the substrate due to their higher wear resistance and lower friction coefficient.

AbstractPhysical vapor deposition (PVD) multilayered coatings with titanium nitride and chromium nitride top layers were deposited on UNS S17400 alloy in an attempt to improve the corrosion and corrosion-wear resistance of this stainless steel in corrosive environments. The coatings were produced in an industrial chamber by cathodic arc PVD on heat-treated and mechanically polished stainless steel specimens. The microstructures of the substrates and coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy system. To evaluate the corrosion and corrosion-wear resistance, reciprocating-sliding tribometer and electrochemical tests were conducted in 3.5% NaCl solution. The results showed that nitride coatings possess, in general, better corrosion and corrosion-wear resistance compared with bare S17400 substrates. Specimens with CrN top coating revealed a typical compact structure and superior corrosion resistance compared with substrate and TiN top coating. However, the sliding motion damaged the surface with some microcracks on the coating, which act as the diffusion channels for NaCl solution; both TiN and CrN top coats experienced approximately similar behavior in corrosion-wear open-circuit potential testing.

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) made of capiz shell has been successfully coated onto stainless steel 316L substrate using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method. In this study, three variations were applied, they were the voltages of 25 V and 50 V, the withdrawal speeds of 0.1 mm/s, 0.5 mm/s, and 1 mm/s, and the sintering temperatures of 750, 850, and 950 °C. These variations were applied to determine the differences in morphology and crystal structure of the layers so that the most suitable result was obtained as a candidate for the bone implant. Characterization was done by Scanning Electron Microscope and X-Ray Diffractometer. The EPD process and the application of sintering temperature eliminated the phase of B type apatite carbonate which made the purity of the HAp layer higher. The SEM results show that the layer was more homogeneous and free of cracking at a voltage of 50 V and the withdrawal speed of 0.1 mm/s. The layer density was higher as the voltage and sintering temperature increased. Higher sintering temperature also made the layer more homogeneous, but at 950 °C, stainless steel 316L substrate underwent a phase transformation which caused the decreasing of the purity of the HAp layer. The best results were obtained by applying a50 V voltage, a withdrawal speed of 0.1 mm/s, and a sintering temperature of 850 °C.

AbstractThe present study compares the mechanical properties and electrochemical behaviour of austenitic (AISI 316 L) stainless steel compacted at different pressures (200, 400 and 600 MPa), which are conventionally sintered at supersolidus temperature of 1,400°C. As expected, increase in compaction pressure (from 200 MPa) to 600 MPa has shown decreased shrinkage (from 7.3% to 4.2% radial and 5.5% to 3.4% axial, respectively) and increased densification (up to ~92%). Their electrochemical behaviour was investigated in 0.1 N H2SO4 solution by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The mechanical properties (such as yield-, tensile- and transverse rupture strength) and electrochemical behaviour with pressure have been correlated with densification response and microstructure (pore type, volume and morphology). Highest densification (~92% theoretical) achieved at 600 MPa (compaction pressure) and 1,400°C (sintering temperature) resulted in excellent combination of tensile strength and ductility (456 ± 40 MPa and 25 ± 1.1% respectively), while showing lowest corrosion rate (0.1 mmpy or 4.7 mpy) due to the presence of isolated porosity in the sintered samples.

In this research, hydroxyapatite (HA)–chitosan–titania nanocomposite coatings were formed on 316 L stainless steel using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) from alcoholic (methanol and ethanol) suspensions containing 0.5 g/L chitosan and 2 and 5 g/L HA and 2 and 5 g/L Titania. The effect of different parameters on the deposition rate, morphology, and corrosion resistance of the coatings in simulated body fluid (SBF) at 37 °C has been studied. The coatings’ properties were investigated using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Based on the results of this work, it was found that the deposition rate in ethanolic suspensions is lower than methanolic ones. Moreover, the coating surface was smoother when the ethanol was used as a solvent in suspensions in comparison to the ones where methanol was the solvent. The coating deposited from a suspension containing 0.5 g/L chitosan, 2 g/L HA, and 5 g/L titania with ethanol as solvent had the highest corrosion resistance in SBF at 37 °C.

The corrosion inhibition competence of 4-{[4-(dimethylamino)benzylidene]amino}-5-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (DBTT) on 316 stainless steel (316 SS) in 2.5 M H2SO4 was studied using various electrochemical as well as weight-loss measurements. The alloy surface was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Concentration effect on inhibition efficiency was investigated by varying concentration from 5 to 2000 ppm in the temperature range 30-60 °C. Results indicated mixed-type inhibitory action of DBTT. The efficiency increased with the raise in concentration of DBTT and temperature, reaching a highest of 92.4 % at 60 °C. Langmuir adsorption isotherm is obeyed. Calculation of different thermodynamic factors suggests that the adsorption is via both physisorption and chemisorption. In addition to these, several global reactivity parameters were calculated using DFT method at B3LYP/6-311++(d,p) basis set. Theoretical calculations are in good concurrence with the experimental results.

It has been proved that surface nanocrstallization pretreatment is beneficial to plasma nitriding of steel by enhancing nitrogen diffusion, while the tribological properties of the nitrided nanostructured steel under boundary lubrication are not clear. In this work, AISI 316 L stainless steel with and without ultrasonic cold forging technology (UCFT) pretreatment was plasma nitrided at 500 °C for 4 h. The effects of UCFT pretreatment on the microstructure and properties of the nitrided layer and the tribochemical interactions between the nitrided layer and friction modifier molybdenum dithiocarbamate (MoDTC) and antiwear additive zinc dialkyldithio-phosphate (ZDDP) were investigated using SRV tribometer, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), vickers hardness tester, optical microscope, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Surface analyses confirm the formation of a 20 μm thick nitrided layer on the UCFT-pretreated sample and it had higher hardness than that on the unpretreated sample. Furthermore, the nitrided UCFT-pretreated sample presented better synergetic effect with MoDTC and ZDDP on tribological behaviors than the nitrided unpretreated sample. This is attributed to the higher contents of Mo, S, Zn, P, and MoS2/MoO3 ratio in the tribofilms on the nitrided UCFT-pretreated sample.

Metals are increasingly used in engineering due to their high specific strength. However, some of pure metals do not posses good corrosion resistance. Therefore carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) has been studied to overwhelm the corrosion existed on the metal’s surface. CNMs are synthesized directly on various metal substrates by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technique without addition of any external catalyst, in reactor at temperature of 800°C. Argon with a flow rate of 200ml/min was used as a carrier gas and acetone as a carbon source. In this study, two different metals were used as metal substrate: mild steel and stainless steel 316. The morphology, existence of CNTs and elemental analysis of the CNMs on metal substrate are evaluated using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), respectively. It was proven that the different element composition of metal substrate influenced the size and morphology of CNMs. The most suitable metal to grow CNTs was found to be stainless steel.

The present experimental investigation deals with the deposition of electroless Ni-P-W coating on mild steel substrate and optimization of tribological parameters for better tribological behaviour like minimization of wear depth and coefficient of friction. Three tribological test parameters, namely, load, speed, and time, are optimized for minimum friction and wear of the coating. Friction and wear tests are carried out in a multitribotester using block on roller configuration under dry conditions. Taguchi based grey relational analysis is employed for optimization of this multiple response problem using L27 orthogonal array. Analysis of variance shows that load, speed, time, and interaction between load and speed have significant influence on controlling the friction and wear behavior of Ni-P-W coating. It is observed that wear mechanism is mild adhesive in nature. The structural morphology, composition, and phase structure of the coating are studied with the help of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), respectively.

The 316 L stainless-steel samples were prepared by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). The effects of processing parameters on the density and defects of 316 L stainless steel were studied through an orthogonal experiment. The density of the samples was measured by the Archimedes method, optical microscopy (OM) and X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT). The microstructures and defects under different LPBF parameters were studied by OM and SEM. The results show that the energy density has a significant effect on the defect and density of the structure. When the energy density is lower than 35.19 J/mm3, the density increases significantly with the increase of energy density. However, when the energy density is larger than this value, the density remains relatively stable. The process parameter with the greatest influence on energy density is the hatch distance D, followed by laser power P, scanning speed V and rotation angle θ. In this paper, the optimum parameters consist of P = 260 W, V = 1700 mm, D = 0.05 mm and θ = 67°, in which the density is as high as 98.5%. In addition, the possibility and accuracy of the XCT method in detecting the discontinuity and porosity of 316 L stainless steel were discussed. The results show that XCT can provide the whole size and variation trend of pores in the different producing direction of LPBF.
