FORMATION and BREAKDDOWN of CHROMATE CONVERSION COATINGS on Al-Zn-Mg-Cu 7X75 ALLOYS FORMATION AND BREAKDDOWN OF CHROMATE CONVERSION COATINGS ON Al-Zn-Mg-Cu 7X75 ALLOYS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yuhchae Yoon, M.S. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Rudolph G. Buchheit, Adviser Approved by Dr. Gerald S. Frankel ____________________________ Dr. Michael J. Mills Adviser Graduate Program in Mat. Sci. & Eng. Dr. Philip J. Grandinetti ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to characterize the formation and breakdown of chromate conversion coatings (CCCs) on aluminum alloys Al-Zn-Mg-Cu 7075 and 7475 with a focus on the effect of alloy temper, alloy purity and selected coating processing variables. Overall, results consistently pointed to a slight temper effect. Conversion coated AA7475-T7 was significantly more corrosion resistant than conversion coated AA7475-T6. In AA7075, there was only a slight difference in corrosion resistance between the two tempers. This was attributed to the effect of constituent particles on coating formation and breakdown, which are present to a much greater extent in AA7075 than in AA7475. The difference in the corrosion resistance between the T6 and T7 tempers in the coated and uncoated conditions is about the same suggesting that the origin of any “temper effect” in conversion coated materials is ultimately due to the intrinsic change in corrosion susceptibility of the alloy itself. Thicker coating formed on AA7475-T7 has the effect of increasing corrosion resistance, which could be associated with the 860 cm-1 Raman intensity band. Studies were also conducted with alloys in retrogression and reaged tempers and the W temper. Results with these tempers were mixed and no general conclusions could be drawn. In terms of electrochemically derived measures of corrosion resistance (electrochemical impedance, and pitting potential ii measurements), the magnitude of the temper effect was about the same as the effect due to the purity difference between AA7075 and AA7475. The temper effect was less significant than effects due to increasing coating time from 1 to 3 minutes, withholding certain substrate precleaning steps, or withholding key ingredients from the coating bath. Scanning probe microscopy, scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy (SKPFM) and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterize coating formation in the vicinity of constituent intermetallic particles (IMPs) present in the alloys. Coatings formed on IMPs exhibited different morphologies and were much thinner that coatings formed on the matrix. Coatings were thinnest on S phase particles, and in post-coating exposure to aggressive chloride environments coating breakdown was almost always associated with these particles. The difference in coating thickness between particles and the surrounding matrix was established within the first tens of seconds of coating. The thickness differential was then observed to remain constant for the remainder of the coating immersion time. Although coatings were thinner on IMPs, they did confer some level of protection. SKPFM measurements showed that the difference in the Volta potential measured between the matrix and the particles was strongly reduced by the conversion coating suggesting that intact coatings reduced any tendencies for microgalvanic coupling. Thin film analogs of two important intermetallic compound particles, η (MgZn2) and S (Al2CuMg), were synthesized and analyzed using quartz crystal microbalance weight change measurements, potentiodynamic polarization and Raman spectroscopy. MgZn2 compounds were prepared with different levels of Cu to simulate the compositional change that occurs when 7X75 alloys are artificially aged. Results showed iii that these phases are electrochemically active and the conversion coatings reduce activity only slightly. The coatings that do form on these compounds are thin and may have lower hexavalent Cr contents than coatings that form elsewhere. With increasing amounts of Cu dissolved in the η phase, coatings are even thinner and possibly more defficient in Cr6+. Multi-element electrode array experiments were used to electrochemically characterize coating formation and breakdown. Coating formation was characterized by an episode of measurable electrochemical activity on the array lasting for about 30 seconds. This was followed by a period of little measurable electrochemical activity. During the episode of electrochemical activity, individual electrode elements in the array exhibited transients that were predominantly anodic, predominantly cathodic or mixed. In subsequent potentiodynamic polarization of these coated electrodes in a chloride environment there was a weak dependence of the pitting potential on the character of the current transient with electrodes exhibiting cathodic transients having slightly more noble pitting potentials than electrodes that had anodic or mixed transients. iv Dedicated to My loving wife, Chimi Woo, My beloved son, John Hyunsung Yoon, My parents and parents-in-law, And Elohim v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to my advisor, Dr. Rudy Buchheit, who has given me profound guidance, inspiring motivation, excellent advice, and support over past five years.

All Rights Reserved. www.asminternational.org Surface Engineering for Corrosion and Wear Resistance (#06835G) CHAPTER 1 Introduction to Surface Engineering for Corrosion and Wear Resistance SURFACE ENGINEERING is a multidisciplinary activity intended to tailor the properties of the surfaces of engineering components so that their function and serviceability can be improved. The ASM Handbook de- fines surface engineering as “treatment of the surface and near-surface regions of a material to allow the surface to perform functions that are distinct from those functions demanded from the bulk of the material” (Ref 1). The desired properties or characteristics of surface-engineered components include: • Improved corrosion resistance through barrier or sacrificial protection • Improved oxidation and/or sulfidation resistance • Improved wear resistance • Reduced frictional energy losses • Improved mechanical properties, for example, enhanced fatigue or toughness • Improved electronic or electrical properties • Improved thermal insulation • Improved aesthetic appearance As indicated in Table 1, these properties can be enhanced metallurgically, mechanically, chemically, or by adding a coating. The bulk of the material or substrate cannot be considered totally inde- pendent of the surface treatment. Most surface processes are not limited to the immediate region of the surface, but can involve the substrate by © 2001 ASM International.

  • Surface Finishing Treatments
    Tel.: 1-800-479-0056 Fax: 1-888-411-2841 www.aspenfasteners.com [email protected] Surface finishing treatments Surface finishing treatments can have a significant impact on the properties of fasteners, making them more suitable for specific applications. Most typically finishes are applied to improve durability (wear resistance and corrosion resistance) and/or for decorative purposes. Fasteners that are to be used in conditions where they are exposed to high physical stress levels, corrosive elements, or extreme temperatures may benefit greatly from plating/coating. Anodizing An electrolytic passivation process that forms a thin, transparent oxide layer that protects the metal substrate. Anodizing modifies the surface of the metal to produce a decorative, durable, corrosion and wear resistant finish. Unlike plating or painting, the oxide finish becomes integrated with the metallic substrate, so it cannot chip or peel and minimally alters the dimensional aspects of the part. The physical properties of this oxide layer also provides excellent adhesion for secondary processes like colouring and sealing. The term "anodizing" reflects the process whereby the metal part to be finished forms the anode of an electric circuit immersed in an electrolyte bath. The current in the circuit causes ionic oxygen to be released from the electrolyte and combine with the metallic substrate of the finished part. Black Oxide Black Oxide is a low cost conversion coating where oxidizing salts are used to react with the iron in steel alloys to form magnetite (Fe304), the black oxide of iron. The result is an attractive and durable matte black finish. While steel is the usual substrate, other materials including stainless steel, alloy, copper, brass, bronze, die cast zinc, and cast iron react equally well.

    CORROSION PROTECTION PROVIDED BY TRIVALENT CHROMIUM PROCESS CONVERSION COATINGS ON ALUMINUM ALLOYS By Liangliang Li A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Chemical Engineering – Doctor of Philosophy 2013 ABSTRACT CORROSION PROTECTION PROVIDED BY TRIVALENT CHROMIUM PROCESS CONVERSION COATINGS ON ALUMINUM ALLOYS By Liangliang Li High strength aluminum alloys are widely used in aviation and aerospace industries because of their desirable strength/weight ratio that results from the alloy addition ( e.g. , Cu, Fe etc ). However, this alloy addition causes pitting corrosion of the aluminum surrounding those intermetallic inclusions. One efficient way to inhibit the corrosion is through the protective coating system that contains the topcoat, primer, and conversion coating. The conversion coating is in direct contact with the alloy surface and is expected to provide both good corrosion protection and adhesion. The chromate conversion coating (CCC) has been widely used in aviation/aerospace industry and provides excellent active corrosion protection and adhesion to aluminum alloys. Unfortunately, the Cr(VI) is toxic and chromate is a carcinogen. Therefore, a trivalent chromium process (TCP) coating was developed as a drop-in replacement of CCC. This dissertation focuses on a fundamental understanding of the formation mechanism, chemical structure, and basic electrochemical properties of the TCP coating on three high strength aluminum alloys: AA2024-T3, AA6061-T6, and AA7075- T6. The formation of the TCP coating is driven by an increase in the interfacial pH. The coating is about 50-100 nm thick and has a biphasic structure consisting of a 3- ZrO 2/Cr(OH) 3 top layer and an AlF 6 /Al(OH) 3 interfacial layer.

Abstract This work is focused on two areas: the chemistry of organofluorine and organoboron compounds. In the first chapter, a copper-catalysed synthesis of tri- and tetrasubstituted allenylboronic acids is presented. Extension of the same method leads to allenylboronic esters. The very reactive and moisture-sensitive allenylboronic acids are further applied to the reaction with aldehydes, ketones and imines to form homopropargyl alcohols and amines. In addition, an enantioselective reaction catalysed by a BINOL organocatalyst was developed to form tertiary alcohols with adjacent quaternary carbon stereocenters. The second chapter specialises in the functionalisation of 2,2-difluoro enol silyl ethers with electrophilic reagents under mild reaction conditions.

  • Sd0000029 Evaluation of Chromfte Ore and The
    SD0000029 EVALUATION OF CHROMFTE ORE AND THE OPTIMUM METHODS FOR INDUSTRIAL EXTRACTION OF CHROMIUM A TI1HSIS SUBMITTED BY Bakheit Mustafa Mohamed Salih IN CANDIDATURE FOR TIU:DI:GRFJ:OI MASTER OF SC1HNCT DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY FACULTY OF SCIENCE (P.O.BOX 321) OCTOBER 1999 UNIVERSITY OF KHARTOUM 31/ 28 ABSTRACT Samples of chromite ore, collected from Gam and Cheikay mining area (Ingessana Hills) in east Sudan, were analysed to assess the chromium content. Methods for extraction and analysis of chromium metal were developed and established. Analysis were carried out using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) to estimate the contents of chromium, iron, calcium, and magnesium. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) was used to evaluate the levels of chromium, iron, and calcium in the ore. Volumetric analysis was performed to assess chromium and iron, whilst gravimetric analysis was employed to measure the amounts of calcium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon present in the ore. The data was chemically and statistically analyzed to compare the results obtained by the given analytical methods. The results are in good agreement except iron oxide, which displayed a significantly different value when measured by x-ray fluorescence. The data obtained exhibited similarity in almost all cases, when compared with local and global researches, reports, and literature. The study has revealed the average contents of Cr2O3, FeO, CaO, MgO, A12O3, and SiO2 as 40.66. 11.96, 11.94. 0.36. 16.94, 11.45% respectively. MnO and NiO were detected in trace amounts, the corresponding levels in the ore being 72 and 27 ppm. The average chromium content in extracted potassium dichromate measured by using AAS, XRF, and volumetric methods was found to be 31.7%.
