Aluminum has mechanical properties such as light, easy to form, and the ability to conduct heat and electricity, but has less corrosion resistance properties. One effort to improve corrosion resistance in aluminum is by electrodeposition method. The electrodeposition process was carried out with a variation of time 10, 20, and 30 minutes and variations in voltage of 5 V, 10 V, and 15 V using AA 1100. The electrolyte used was a mixture of acetic acid and chitosan. Coating thickness measurement was carried out using NOVOTEST TP-1M coating thickness gauge, the corrosion rate was measured with 128N Autolab PGSTAT Potentiodynamic and surface roughness measurements using Mitutoyo SJ-210 Surface Roughness Tester. Based on the research data, it was found that the results of optimum layer thickness were obtained at 10 Volt variation of 20 minutes at 11 μm ± 0.04%. Specimens without treatment had the highest corrosion rate of 0.25541 mpy while the lowest corrosion rate was in the 10 variations of 20 minutes which produced 0.0078935 mpy. The surface roughness data of the specimen without treatment was 1.034 μm. The results of the smallest surface roughness were obtained at 10 V 20 minutes variation of 0.725 μm, while the largest surface roughness results in a variation of 15 V 30 minutes which was 2.529 μm. In this stud, it is known that the higher the time and stress used in the electrodeposition process results in greater corrosion rates, because it produces a higher layer thickness but results in higher surface roughness as well.

This study aims to find material steel for animal feed chopper machine which is not easily corroded with method of hot dip galvanizing (HDG). Steel as machinery components or construction often gets broken before the predicted time because of corrosion. The HDG method was begun by pre-treatment process which were polishing, degreasing, rinsing I, pickling, rinsing II, fluxing, and drying. The main process of galvanizing was done by dipping in 98% of zinc solution with temperature variation of 430, 450, 470, and 490°C. The coating thickness measurement was run with Coating thickness NOVOTEST TP-1M. The corrosion was tested with electrochemical method of potentiodynamic polarization with AUTOLAB PGSTAT 128. The highest value of coating thickness was at galvanized temperature of 490°C which was 88.9 ± 3.24%. The value of standard deviation was indicated by how much the coating homogeneity formed. This was in line with the amount of corrosion rate at galvanized temperature of 490°C. The highest corrosion rate values in H2SO4 and NaCl environment were 1.18 and 0.21 mm/year. The highest hardness value of Zn layer is galvanizing temperature of 490°C which rises 41.71% of the base metal. The coating thickness, corrosion and surface hardness test have thee good agreement.

Abstract There are many instances of coatings that require a nondestructive and non-contact measure of coating thickness as part of a quality control system. Specifically, this paper reports on experiments carried out on non-contact measurements of MCrAIY and TBC coatings. The system uses an infra red beam from a solid state laser to generate a thermal wave in the coating. When this wave reaches the substrate an interference effect is caused. The modulated input heating produces a modulated output infra red signal from the surface and at a different wavelength from the laser beam. The output signal has a phase difference from the input signal which is related to the coating thickness. As neither the laser nor the detector are in contact with the surface of the coating and the temperature of the coating is raised by only a few degrees this represents a non-contact NDE system. This system has been tested across a range of coating/substrate combinations. In this paper we give examples of MCrAIY and TBC coatings applied to engine components demonstrating that the accuracy of measurement is only limited by the roughness of the coating structure and substrate. The use of this system for on-line measurement during the spraying process is also discussed and results presented.

The plasma electrolyte oxidation (PEO) process has been considered an environmentally friendly surface engineering method for improving the corrosion resistance of light weight metals. In this work, the corrosion resistance of commercially pure Al and PEO treated Al substrates were studied. The PEO layers were grown on commercially pure aluminum substrates using two different alkaline electrolytes with different addition concentrations of Si3N4 nanoparticles (0, 0.5 and 1.5 gL−1) and different duty cycles (25%, 50%, and 80%) at a fixed frequency. The corrosion properties of PEO coatings were investigated by the potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy test in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solutions. It showed that the weight gains, layer thickness and surface roughness of the PEO grown oxide layer increased with increasing concentrations of Si3N4 nanoparticles. The layer thickness, surface roughness, pore size, and porosity of the PEO oxide layer decreased with decreasing duty cycle. The layer thickness and weight gain of PEO coating followed a linear relationship. The PEO layer grown using the Na2B4O7∙10H2O contained electrolyte showed an excellent corrosion resistance and low surface roughness than other PEO coatings with Si3N4 nanoparticle additives. It is noticed that the corrosion performance of PEO coatings were not improved by the addition of Si3N4 nanoparticle in the electrolytic solutions, possibly due to its detrimental effect to the formation of a dense microstructure.
