We demonstrated the deposition of the architecture of graphene oxide on stainless steel substrate and its potential environmental application. The synthesis and characterization of graphene oxide were described. The controlled formation of graphene oxide coatings in the form of the homogenous structure on stainless steel is demonstrated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The structure, morphology and properties of the material were assessed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The morphology and stability of these structures are shown to be particularly related to the pre-treatment of stainless steel substrate before the electrophoretic deposition. This approach opens up a new route to the facile fabrication of advanced electrode coatings with potential use in environmental applications.

Aegirine belongs to a group of minerals known as inosilicates. In this study, a fast and efficient procedure is proposed for the synthesis of aegirine nanoparticles by means of the hydrothermal process, starting from a suspension of simple hydroxide/silicate precursors. Structural properties of the obtained mineral were assessed by the XRD technique. It was found that aegirine was the only crystalline phase present. The expected needle-like morphology, characteristic of inosilicates, was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Through an appropriate selection of solvents and dispersants, an electrophoretic deposition and immobilization of aegirine on stainless steel was achieved. Native layers of aegirine displayed a very smooth morphology, while after calcination, a detachment of the layers from the stainless steel substrate and the appearance of cracks in the coating was observed. This phenomenon could be prevented by the use of appropriate additives.

Reduced graphene oxide–epoxy grafted poly(styrene-co-acrylate) composites (GESA) were prepared by anchoring different amount of epoxy modified poly(styrene-co-acrylate) (EPSA) onto reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets through π–π electrostatic attraction. The GESA composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The anti-corrosion properties of rGO/EPSA composites were evaluated by electro-chemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in hydroxyl-polyacrylate coating, and the results revealed that the corrosion rate was decreased from 3.509 × 10−1 to 1.394 × 10−6 mm/a.

A graphene oxide/polyaniline composite was synthesized by an in situ polymerization process. This product was simply prepared in an ethylene glycol medium, using ammonium persulfate as oxidant in ice bath. The composite was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and electrochemical test. The composite material showed a good electrochemical performance.

The deposition of diamond phase carbon films on stainless steel substrates by an ionized deposition technique has been studied. A molybdenum grid used during argon ion sputtering had a decisive role in improving the morphology and adhesion ability of the substrate surface. The chemical composition of the surface was obtained by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, indicating the reduction of oxygen, carbon, and other contamination, while the surface morphology of the substrate obtained by scanning electron microscopy showed less roughness with a partially smooth surface. Attempts to extract the deposited films from the pretreated substrate surface by a superadhesive agent with an adhesion of 250 kg/cm2 failed, yielding a much stronger adhesion for the pretreated surface. This fact was also supported by examining the surface morphology, hardness, and the resistivity of the films deposited on the same substrates. As for the crystal structure of diamond phase carbon films on stainless steel, selected area diffraction patterns obtained from transmission electron microscopy suggested a mixture of amorphous carbon and polycrystalline diamond components.

Rose Bengal (RB) was used as a functional pigment and poly dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride was used as a coupling agent to modify Graphene Oxide (GO) in order to enhance the light absorption and ROS generation of GO. GO, RB and the obtained RB-PDDA-GO were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, thermogravimetric analysis, Raman spectroscopy, UV-visible spectrophotometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The oxidation of hydroquinone to p-benzoquinone was used to evaluate the oxidation ability. Three kinds of reactive oxygen species (O2·-, 1O2 and ·OH) produced by the materials under light irradiation were detected by the ESR method using TEMP (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidine) and DMPO (5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide) as capture agents. The results showed that RB-PDDA-GO produced more ROS under light than GO. Antibacterial experiments were carried out with E. coli as the target strain to detect the actual utility of ROS produced by the materials. The results showed that RB-PDDA-GO had a significant sterilization effect.

Biodegradable polymers and bioactive ceramics are being combined in a variety of novel materials for tissue engineering scaffolds. These composite systems, which combine the useful mechanical properties of polymers with the bioactivity of ceramics, seem to be a promising choice for bone tissue engineering. In recent years, the use of biopolymers that gelate on cooling has received a lot of attention with regards to the production of laminates and coatings. In this work, we report the incorporation of hydroxyapatite (HA) into a gelatin coating on stainless steel substrate using colloidal processing technology. A titania (Ti) buffer layer prepared by dip coating was inserted to improve the bonding strength between the HA/gelatin layer and stainless steel substrate. The suspensions, composed of 1 vol% of HA and three different additions of gelatin, were formulated with a focus on rheological properties for codeposition of both phases by electrophoretic deposition (EPD). The composite coatings performed by EPD were investigated in terms of deposition efficiency and kinetics over different deposition times. The EPD process was performed at both ambient temperature and the gelling temperature of the suspension. While at room temperature no electrophoretic growth of the layers was observed, the thermal gelation of gelatin promotes the growth of a homogeneous, well-adherent coating.

A NiCr/Cr3C2 composite coating with a thickness of approximately 200 m was deposited onto 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel substrate by high-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spraying. Microstructure of the coating was characterized using X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The coating comprised a NiCr matrix and two types of carbides. The NiCr matrix was composed of an amorphous phase and nanocrystalline grain with a size of 10–50 nm. The microhardness of the coating was found to be 1200Hv, which is significantly greater than that of the stainless steel (1Cr18Ni9Ti) substrate (285 Hv).
