The article presents the influence of the applied method used for removing the varnish coat on the corrosion resistance of the car body sheet. The tests were carried out on samples prepared from factory-painted car body elements with pearlescent, metallized and acrylic varnish. Removal of the varnish coat was performed by sandpaper grinding, glass bead blasting, disc blaze rapid stripping, soda blasting and abrasive blasting with plastic granules. The average thickness of the factory-painted coating depending on the type of lacquer ranged from about 99 to 140 µm. On the other hand, after removing the varnish, the thickness of the protective zinc coating ranged from 2 to 12.7 µm. The highest values of the zinc coating were obtained for samples in which the varnish was removed by the method such as soda blasting and abrasive blasting with plastic granules. For these two methods of surface preparation, the damage to the zinc layer protecting the steel against corrosion is the smallest and the percentage of zinc in the surface layer ranges from 58% to 78%. The final stage of the research was to test the samples after removing the varnish coat in a two-hour exposure to the corrosive environment in a salt spray chamber. Samples with the surface prepared by grinding with sandpaper reached the level of surface rusting Ri 5, while in the case of soda blasting and the use of plastic granules, no corrosion centers were observed on the surface of the car body sheet.

The paper presents preliminary research focused on the determination of the influence of surface preparation on the quality of the paint coating obtained by the cataphoresis method (KTL). The tests were carried out on steel parts used in the construction of trailers and truck bodies. The first research group consisted of cold-rolled and chemically cleaned parts, the second group were mechanically cleaned with abrasive blasting. In order to determine the influence of surface treatment on the corrosion resistance of the tested coatings, besides a corrosion test, roughness measurements were also carried out. Tests were performed on the crude surface and after coating deposition. Moreover, tests were supplemented by measuring the thickness of the coating using the magnetic induction method and the hardness with the use micro and nano hardness testers. Measurements of the tribological parameters under dry friction conditions were performed using a T11 tester. The corrosion resistance of the applied coatings was determined in a salt spray test. The obtained results were compared to those that were determined for different zinc coatings. It has been shown that the method of base steel surface preparation affects every measured parameter and property of tested paint coatings. The quality of the coating deposited on the steel base after chemical cleaning is much better than the one applied to the sandblasted surface. The measured corrosion resistance of the tested paint coatings is only greater than the corrosion resistance of the lamellar zinc coating. The other zinc coatings (galvanic, hot-dip, sherardized) show corrosion resistance by an order of magnitude higher.

Metal components in engineering, industry and agriculture are subjects of degradation process influenced by corrosion which result in changes of mechanical characteristics. The current trend of anticorrosion protection is aimed at inorganic metal zinc-based coatings, such as zinc dipping which can be improved by duplex protection. This paper deals with two types of corrosion protection of steel components by zinc coating, first of which is produced by hot dip galvanizing, the other by Zn-Al spray. Hot dip galvanizing was processed in working conditions; the Zn-Al coating was sprayed following the instructions of producer. It is a special aerosol with particles of Zn and Al sized approximately 5 µm. There have been processed the following tests: analysis of element structure, test of corrosion resistance in aggressive environment of salt spray according to ČSN ISO 9227, further measurement weight of applied coatings according to ČSN EN ISO 3892 and measurement of thickness of passivating coating. There was also made an analysis of coating tenacity on bending pin according to ČSN EN ISO 8401. Quality of applied coatings was evaluated following the metallographic scratch pattern.

The article presented the results of tests determining the synergistic effect of Al, Ni, and Pb additions on a zinc bath on the structure and corrosion resistance of coatings obtained on low silicon steel. Analyzed coatings were produced on S235JRG2 steel with Si content of 0.02 mass%. The corrosion resistance of the coatings was compared with the corrosion resistance of the coating obtained in the "pure" zinc bath. Structure at high magnifications (SEM) was determined, as well as coating thickness and chemical composition in microspheres. The corrosion resistance of the coatings was established comparatively in standard corrosion tests in neutral salt spray and a humid atmosphere containing SO2. It was found that the addition of Pb to the zinc bath reduced the corrosion resistance of the coatings. In the coating structure obtained in the Zn-AlNiPb bath, lead precipitation was observed in both the outer layer and the intermediate layer of the coating. Grain boundaries were the preferred site for lead precipitation. The presence of Pb precipitates favored conditions for the creation of additional corrosion cells, which led to a decrease in the corrosion resistance of the coatings.

Abstract Using a combination of first-principles calculations and experimental studies to study the effect of La on the corrosion resistance of Powder sherardizing layer in metal structures. Compared to other sherardizing rare earth elements (Re), La has better adsorption with the iron matrix and has the lowest binding energy on the adsorption surface (111) of the Fe matrix. Therefore, the rare earth element La is added to the powder sherardizing process for the rare earth chemical heat treatment to reduce the defects of the powder sherardizing faults formed, improve the surface uniformity and the quality of the permeation layer. On the basis of calculation, La element was added in the process of powder sherardizing, and the corrosion performance of the formed powder galvanizing layer was studied. After alternating salt spray experiments, the degree of corrosion of the layer is relatively small and the corrosion products are predominantly layered and spherical. Electrochemical tests of the layer show that the corrosion resistance of the layer after the rare earth chemical heat treatment has improved.

The wear resistance and corrosion resistance of chromium-free fingerprint-resistant pure zinc and Zn-Al-Mg coated cold-rolled steel sheets were studied by micro-friction wear experiments and neutral salt spray experiments. Two products are worn for a long time with a large load (5N load, 50 times abrasion), the depth of wear zone of Zn-Al-Mg coating product is 9% shallower than that of pure zinc coating product, and the width of wear zone is 15.4% smaller. Both products still meet the requirements of use after corrosion. The corrosion resistance of two products after degreasing treatment was significantly reduced. The Mg and Al in the Zn-Al-Mg coating can hinder the progress of corrosion, so it has better corrosion resistance.

AbstractCoatings with the composition of Li-Al-NO3 hydrotalcite were formed on the Al alloy 6060 using a spray system. The coatings consist of crystals with a typical hydrotalcite structure. Dense, uniform and blade-like flakes cover completely the surface of the Al substrate. The coatings display a multi-layer structure with average thickness of ∼1000 nm. The hydrotalcite-coated samples performed better than those without coatings in salt-spray and filiform-corrosion tests, and further treatment involving sealing with a Mg acetate solution and dipping in a H2O2 + Ce-based solution improved the corrosion resistance ability.

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.
