    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to hardface coating systems and methods for metal alloys and other materials for wear and corrosion resistant applications. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to hardface coatings that include a network of titanium monoboride (TiB) needles or whiskers in a matrix, which are formed from titanium (Ti) and titanium diboride (TiB2) precursors by reactions enabled by the inherent energy provided by the process heat associated with coating deposition and, optionally, coating post-heat treatment. These hardface coatings are pyrophoric, thereby generating further reaction energy internally, and may be applied in a functionally graded manner. The hardface coatings may be deposited in the presence of a number of fluxing agents, beta stabilizers, densification aids, diffusional aids, and multimode particle size distributions to further enhance their performance characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20110297038
    Abstract: A corrosion inhibiting structure includes a mineral tubule having a first end, a second end, and a lumen extending from the first end to the second end. The lumen terminates in a first opening at the first end and a second opening at the second end. The corrosion inhibiting structure also includes an anticorrosion deposit disposed within the lumen, and first and second precipitate stoppers covering the first and second openings, respectively. A coating composition includes a population of corrosion inhibiting structures and a coating material. A method of inhibiting corrosion includes loading anticorrosion agent deposits into lumens, forming stoppers at first and second openings by mixing loaded mineral tubules with a solution containing a predetermined concentration of transition metal ions, mixing the loaded mineral tubules having stoppers with a coating material to form a composite material, and applying the composite material to a metal surface.
