The final coatings consisted of interconnected nanodomains of silica and polycaprolactone, which increased in size and resulted into microdomains when the content of organic phase increased.
The CNTs were dispersed homogeneously in the coatings to form an interconnected web and the cylinder graphic structure of CNTs was not changed after laser irradiation.
Laser remelting was used to enhance further the effectiveness of these coatings to resist metal dusting by eliminating interconnected porosity and improving coating adhesion.
Some of the HVOF coatings were attacked by corrosive species through interconnected network of voids and oxides at splat boundaries.
Axalta Coating Systems has two business segments: performance coatings and transportation coatings.
Since all the coatings are dense with a porosity lower than 2.5% and containing no interconnected porosity, thickness and porosity did not affect the corrosion behavior.
Similar to raspberry-like particles with dual-size roughness, dendrimer-like porous silica nanospheres (DPSNs) have great potentials to fabricate superhydrophobic nano-coatings due to facile and controllable synthesis, center-radial large pores and interconnected wrinkles on particle surface.
This new class of material, consisting of an interconnected network of inorganic oxide and organic components, prepared by sol gel processing is used to form coatings and membranes.
The results showed that the scaffolds with composite coatings resulted in significant improvement in both mechanical and biological properties while retaining the 3D interconnected porous structure.
By varying the deposition parameters, including solution composition, pH value, deposition temperature and current density, a series of manganese oxide nanostructures, including continuous coatings with equiaxed and fibrous features, petal- and flower-like morphologies, discrete oxide clusters, columnar structures and interconnected nanosheets, were anodically deposited on Au-coated glass.
