Development of Modified Glasses by Transparent, Functional Hybrid Sol-Gel Nano-Ceramic Coatings, a Comparative Study

This paper concentrates on the development of glasses with self-cleaning surfaces exhibiting high water contact angles. In this study, we prepared super-hydrophobic nano-ceramic coated glass based on titania & silica using simple sol-gel & dip coating methods and studied the best composition of the coatings by altering ratios of titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP)/tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) with different homogenizing agents. We characterized the coatings by surface roughness measurement, percentage of optical transmission, static contact angle, near-infrared (NIR) transmission, and diffuse reflectance. The fabrication of coatings on glass substrates played an important role in increasing the water contact angle of about 95° and visible & NIR transmission of about 90%. We compared our modified glass substrate with commercial low emissivity (Low E) glass using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, which showed pure amorphous surface claiming excellent wettability and thus the prepared glass substrate could have a variety of applications in different fields.

Effect of Nb on the corrosion behavior of continuous bulk metallic glass-coated steel wire composites

（Zr41.2Ti13.sCu12.sNi10Be22.5）100-~Nb~ （at%, x=0 and 8） bulk metallic glasses （BMGs） were coated on the surface of Q195 steel wires by a continuous coating process. The potentiodynamic polarization tests of these BMGs were conducted in 3.5wt% NaC1 aqueous solution. It is found that the addition of 8at% Nb into Zr41.2Ti13.sCu12.sNi10Be22.5 alloy results in the improvement of corrosion resistance with the pitting potential of -52 mV, the open circuit potential of-446 mV, and the corrosion current density of 9.86x 10-6 mA/cm2. This may be attributed to that Nb is beneficial to passivate and stabilize Zr and Ti.

THE PHYSICAL SIMULATION ON EXTRUSION PROCESS OF GLASS FIBER COMPOSITE WIRE COATED BY LEAD

The method of manufacturing the composite wire by extruding lead to coated glass fiber is described. The different composite wire that diameter is from 0.5 to 1.0mm has been produced by two kinds of different extruding technology (getting wire along horizontal direction and getting wire along perpendicular direction). The optimal extruding techno- logical parameter has been given in different extruding technology by the physical simulation (H: 300℃, 550kN, 0.16mm. P: 300℃, 215kN, 0.16mm). The effect on the coating speed by other extruding technological parameters in the different extruding technology has been discussed. The extruding temperature and extruding force is higher, the coating speed is faster. It has been pointed, that the affection on the extruding technology by the extruding temperature has also behaved as the extruding temperature rising up spontaneously. The reason for exiting the minimum extruding force and maximum extruding force also has been discussion in this paper. It is also important to the extruding process and coating speed that is the coating clearance.

Coating thickness control in continuously fabricating metallic glass-coated composite wires

A continuous production process was developed for coating bulk metallic glasses on the metallic wire surface. The effects of processing parameters, including the drawing velocity and coating temperature, on the coating thickness were investigated. It is found that the coating thickness increases with the increase in drawing velocity but decreases with the increase in coating temperature. A fluid mechanical model was developed to quantify the coating thickness under various processing conditions. By using this theoretical model, the coating thickness was calculated, and the calculated values are in good agreement with the experimental data.

Preparation and Characterization of Low-melting Glasses Used as Binder for Protective Coating of Steel Slab

The low-melting phosphate glass was prepared for production of glass binders for protective coating of steel slab. Effects of different O/P ratios on glass structures and properties were analyzed. Differential thermal analysis （DTA） and infrared spectroscopy （IR） techniques were applied for low-melting glass binder. It was found that the glass transition temperature（T） was about 300 ℃ and softening temperature（T1） was about 480 ℃. The choice of O/P ratio was very important to the glass transition and softening temperatures. When more P=O bonds existed in the glass networks, P-O-P bond angle was deformed with decreasing of the ratio of O/E The coatings could adhere to the substrates instantaneously at 800 ℃ when the content of binder exceeded 3wt%. The optimal content of glass binder was 5wt%.

Self-cleaning glass coated with Fe^(3+)-TiO_2 thin film

The self-cleaning glass coated with Fe3+-TiO2 photocatalytic thin film was prepared by sol-gel process from the system Ti（OC4H9）4-NH（C2H4OH）2-C2H5OH-H2O containing FeCl3. The microstructure and properties of the film were studied using differential thermal analysis-thermogravimetry（DTA-TG）, X-ray diffration（XRD） and scanning electron microscope（SEM）. The transmittance of the self-cleaning glass was measured by using UV-Vis spectrometer. The effects of content of Fe3+ and the thickness of Fe3+-TiO2 thin film on the photocatalytic activity were examined. The results show that the photocatalytic thin films are mainly composed of Fe3O4 and TiO2 particles within 10100 nm. The appropriate amount of Fe3+ is effective for improving the photocatalytic activities of TiO2. The best photocatalytic activity is obtained when the molar ratio of Fe3+ to TiO2 is 0.005 and the glass is coated with 9 layers.

Biodegradation behavior of polymethyl methacrylate−bioactive glass 45S5 composite coated magnesium in simulated body fluid

The biodegradation behavior of Mg,coated by polymethyl methacrylate as well as polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA)−bioactive glass(BG)composite was investigated.Electrophoretic deposition and dip coating techniques were adopted to prepare composite coating using a suspension of different percentages of the above two chemical materials.The deposited coatings were characterized using SEM,EDS,FTIR,and water contact angle measurements.Biodegradation behavior study of the coated Mg was performed using linear polarization,impedance spectroscopy,and immersion tests in simulated body fluid.The compact and homogeneous composite coating was developed as evidenced by electron microscopy results.The water contact angle measurement showed a 44°increase in the contact angle of the composite coated Mg compared to the uncoated one.The composite coating was covered by a bone-like hydroxyapatite layer after 336 h,indicating that the coating has an excellent in vitro bioactivity.The electrochemical testing results confirmed a significant reduction,96.9%,in the biodegradation rate of Mg coated with the composite prepared from 45 g/L PMMA+3.5 g/L 45S5 GB suspension compared to that of the uncoated one.Therefore,the composite coated Mg can be proposed as a promising material for biodegradable implant application.

Fabrication of composite wire of lead coated on glass fiber by extrusion

A new technology of using lead coated on glass fiber to produce continuous wire for battery of electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) was studied. Some new devices were made to improve the material capability, and the technological parameters were determined. The relationships among different parameters in the new technology were discussed, especially the relationship between the coating speed and other parameters. The microstructure and tensile strength of the composite wire were also analyzed.

Magnetic and microwave properties of glass-coated amorphous ferromagnetic microwires

Glass-coated amorphous FeCuNbSiB microwires were prepared by Taylor-Ulitovsky technique. X-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscopy were used to investigate the microstructure and morphology of the glass-coated microwires respectively. The vibrating sample magnetometer and vector network analyzer were used to study the magnetostatic and microwave properties of glass-coated microwires. The experimental results show that the effective anisotropy of an array of 150 microwires of 10 mm in length is large than that of one microwire of 10 mm in diameter and an array of 150 microwires of 1 mm in diameter. The natural ferromagnetic resonance takes place as the microwave magnetic component is perpendicular to the microwires axis, and the electric dipole resonance takes place as the microwire is long or the short microwire concentration is moderate. The natural ferromagnetic resonance shifts to higher frequency with the larger microwire concentration. The electric dipole resonance is governed by the microwires length and concentration. The glass-coated FeCuNbSiB microwires can be used to design EMI filters and microwave absorbing materials.

Dynamic Impact Absorption Behaviour of Glass Coated with Carbon Nanotubes

Boro-silicate glass samples were coated with chemically treated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) to study the resistance offered by the coatings under the high strain rate impact. Impact testing of these glass samples was performed on Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB), where strain rates were varied from 500/s to 3300/s. However, the comparisons were limited to samples subjected to a strain rate of 2300/s to 3000/s so that the effect of only variable deposits of coatings on the stress-strain behavior of glass can be studied. Variable deposits (0.1 mg to 0.8 mg) of MWCNTs were coated uniformly on glass samples having a disc shape with a fixed surface area (79 mm2) to observe the effect of the coating on the impact absorption capacity of glass. It was observed that the small thickness of about 25 μm formed due to the fact that 0.2 mg of MWCNTs deposit spread over the surface increased the impact absorption capacity of the glass pieces by nearly 70%. However, beyond this amount when the deposit was increased to 0.4 mg, the coating thickness got doubled to nearly 49 μm and this led to a fall in absorption capacity which remained static till 0.8 mg deposit. However, even this decrease in capacity was able to absorb 30% more impact than offered by pure glass sample.

PRELIMINARY STUDY ON RETRO-REFLECTIVE COATED PAPER BASED ON MICROGLASS BEADS

High-reflectivity micro-glass bead, as a kind of retro-reflective material, is widely used in reflective fabric or film and other reflective coatings. But it is rarely used in coated paper. The retro-reflective theory of micro-bead is described. Also the effect of size of micro-bead, dosage of binder and different color layers on reflective properties of coated paper are discussed in this article. The results show that its retro-reflective efficiency is good, equally to reflective fabric or film when the micro-glass bead is used in coated paper.

Fabrication, tribological and corrosion behaviors of detonation gun sprayed Fe-based metallic glass coating

A metallic glass coating with the composition of Fe51.33Cr14.9Mo25.67Y3.4C3.44B1.26 （mole fraction, %） on the Q235 stainless steel was developed by the detonation gun （D-gun） spraying process. The microstructure and the phase aggregate were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry, respectively. Microhardness, wear resistance and corrosion behavior were assessed using a Vickers microhardness tester, a ball-on-disk wear testing machine and the electrochemical measurement method, respectively. Microstructural studies show that the coatings possess a densely layered structure with the porosity less than 2.1%. The tribological behavior of the coatings examined under dry conditions shows that their relative wear resistance is five times higher than that of the substrate material. Both adhesive wear and abrasive wear contribute to the friction, but the former is the dominant wear mechanism of the metallic glass coatings. The coatings exhibit low passive current density and extremely wide passive region in 3.5% NaCl solution, thus indicating excellent corrosion resistance.
