Effect Of Relative Humidity In High Temperature Oxidation Of Ceria Nanoparticles Coating On 316l Austenitic Stainless Steel, Luis Giraldez Pizarro
Effect Of Relative Humidity In High Temperature Oxidation Of Ceria Nanoparticles Coating On 316l Austenitic Stainless Steel, Luis Giraldez Pizarro
Theses and Dissertations
A solution of 20 wt. % colloidal dispersion of Cerium Oxide (CeO2) in 2.5% of acetic acid, was used for depositing a coating film on an austenitic stainless steel 316L. Cerium compounds have been distinguished as potential corrosion inhibitors in coatings over several alloys. The oxidation behavior of the cerium oxide coating on 316L austenitic stainless steel alloy was evaluated in dry and humid environments, the weight changes (W/A) was monitored as a function of time using a custom built Thermogravimetrical Analysis (TGA) instrument at temperatures of 750C, 800C and 850C, and different relative humidity levels (0%, 10% and 20%) …
