It provides excellent adherence and corrosion resistance, and is more environment-friendly.
The coating/substrate interface exhibits excellent adherence with no evidence of delamination, cracks, or other defects.
The zirconia top coat exhibited an excellent adherence to the thermally grown oxide scales.
The deposited coatings showed excellent adherence with an adhesion rating of 4 A for films with a Si-C interlayer.
The cross-cut test incorporated with film bending proved the excellent adherence between silica layer and PP substrate.
These thin layers on the steel surface were deposited by displacement processes and both flash coated layers had good surface coverage and excellent adherence to the steel surface.
The sharp interfaces of IrAl2.7(3)/IrAl and IrAl/Ir in the aluminized Ir coating showed excellent adherence without any defects.
On the contrary, the excellent adherence of such films to the substrate, together with the elevated compressive residual stresses and mechanical strength give rise to a significant improvement of the fatigue performance of the base steel.
It was found that catalyst layer with zirconia sol solution in microchannel showed no crack on the surface of catalyst layer and an excellent adherence to stainless steel microchannel even after reaction.
Consequently, the optimized periclase-spinel refractories contained porous aggregates with 25 wt% spinel, which resulted in a high corrosion resistance together with an excellent adherence ability regarding the cement clinker.
The formation of a double layered coating was observed, with a slightly decreased surface hardness and stiffness compared to the metallic substrate and increased scratch and fretting wear resistances, thanks to an excellent adherence to the substrate, an optimal value of the hardness to modulus ratio (H/E) and a marked decrease of the friction coefficient.
