Surface protective thin layers of high temperature oxidation resistant aluminum
oxide Al2O3, have been prepared by the sol-gel processing, using the spin coating
method. In order to increase layer thickness, corundum suspension was added to
the al
umina sol.
In this research project, the EPON 828 /Hardener 2512 epoxy resin coating
has been prepared at the ambient laboratory temperature with different epoxy/
hardener ratio.
This paper provides a mechanism to study aluminum diffusion microstructure, phase
structure and different properties of the aluminized layer in carbon steel.
The results of aluminized treatment in saturated medium lead to the formation of diffusion
layer coating that contains iron aluminide and a- solid solution of aluminum in the unit cell of
iron.
The effect of aluminizing process parameters on the aluminizing layer, especially the
effect of temperature and time, has been shown to increase the depth of the aluminized layer
when temperature and time increase, but the effect of temperature is greater than time.
