T1 - Electrochemical noise of unalloyed steel in mixtures of water-based binders and pigments N2 - The development of organic coatings for corrosion protection is an elaborate process with a multitude of often interminable investigations and tests of protection properties. Electrochemical methods support the processes of development to a great extent and help to understand mechanisms of action and failure. They are usually carried out on applied coating systems with a completed formulation. An examination possibility is presented in this publication that enables the characterization of waterbased coatings with different formulation variations in the liquid (aqueous) state with the aid of electrochemical noise technique. Thus, selection of binders, pigments, and other additives is supported essentially and made more efficient in a very early Phase of formulation development. The paper shows that a unique insight into the dynamic processes of a metal in contact with an aqueous coating dispersion is possible using the example of the development of zinc-free corrosion-inhibiting pigments for waterbased coatings. In addition, it is presented in which way the results correlate with the performance of applied coatings.

T1 - Influence of clustering on the magnetic N2 - Clustering of magnetic nanoparticles can drastically change their collective magnetic properties, which in turn may influence their performance in technological or biomedical applications. Here, we investigate a commercial colloidal dispersion (FeraSpinTMR), which contains dense clusters of iron oxide cores (mean size around 9 nm according to neutron diffraction) with varying cluster size (about 18–56 nm according to small angle x-ray diffraction), and its individual size fractions (FeraSpinTMXS, S, M, L, XL, XXL). The magnetic properties of the colloids were characterized by isothermal magnetization, as well as frequency-dependent optomagnetic and AC susceptibility measurements. From these measurements we derive the underlying moment and Relaxation frequency distributions, respectively. Analysis of the distributions shows that the clustering of the initially superparamagnetic cores leads to remanent magnetic moments within the large clusters. At frequencies below 105 rad s−1, the relaxation of the clusters is dominated by Brownian (rotation) relaxation. At higher frequencies, where Brownian relaxation is inhibited due to viscous friction, the clusters still show an appreciable magnetic relaxation due to internal moment relaxation within the clusters. As a result of the internal moment relaxation, the colloids with the large clusters (FSL, XL, XXL) excel in magnetic hyperthermia experiments.

Elektrochemische Methoden unterstützen die Entwicklungsprozesse in hohem Maße und helfen beim Verstehen von Wirk- und Schadensmechanismen. Sie werden meistens an fertig formulierten und applizierten Beschichtungssystemen vorgenommen. Es wird eine Untersuchungsmöglichkeit vorgestellt, bei der sich wasserbasierte Beschichtungsstoffe in unterschiedlichen Formulierungsvarianten bereits im flüssigen Zustand mit Hilfe des elektrochemischen Rauschens charakterisieren lassen. Damit ist es möglich, bereits in einer sehr frühen Phase der Formulierungsentwicklung die Auswahl von Bindemitteln, Pigmenten und weiteren Zusatzstoffen entscheidend zu unterstützen und effizienter zu gestalten. Am Beispiel der Entwicklung von zinkfreien Korrosionsschutzpigmenten für wasserbasierte Beschichtungen wird gezeigt, dass ein einzigartiger Einblick in die dynamischen Prozesse bei Kontakt eines Metalls mit der wässrigen Beschichtungsdispersion möglich ist und wie dies mit der Performance der Beschichtungen korreliert.

The welded specimens were susceptible to SCC in distilled water, with susceptibility increasing with decreasing weld metal Al (or β particle) concentration. Primary stress corrosion cracks initiated at the weld metal-HAZ interface by stress-assisted localised dissolution and propagated through the weld and base metals by transgranular and intergranular H-assisted fracture (TG-HAF and IG-HAF) respectively. The IG fracture mode may be intrinsic to the texture imparted upon the base metal by rolling. The increase in SCC susceptibility with decreasing weld metal Al concentration is contrary to the purported roles of β particles in promoting localised corrosion and as crack nucleation sites, but corresponds with increases in weld - base metal galvanic current density and weld metal localised corrosion susceptibility.

A1 - Heyn, Andreas T1 - Evaluation and Screening of the pre-treatment states of Mg-alloys using Electrochemical Noise N2 - A successful application of magnesium alloys as light structural materials and for special applications, such as in the medical sector, depends significantly on their corrosion properties. Since the use of well-chosen surface coating systems can optimize these properties, many efforts are going in this direction. In general, any coating process must be seen in a close connection to the pre-treatment of the alloy surface, particularly for magnesium alloys. The pre-treatment is required to prepare the optimal surface for a coating system, in which adhesion and dissolution behaviour are the central properties. In the case of magnesium alloys this means a well-controlled removal of the casting or rolling skin, which would be prone to corrosion and poor adhesion. Additionally, in most cases the surface morphology should be smooth. An investigation of different pickling solutions and pickling parameters showed a wide range of effectiveness (i.e., the resulting mass loss and surface morphology). Another important and often underestimated fact is the comparatively strong tendency of magnesium to react with the atmosphere. For that reason, after a completed pickling and cleaning treatment the condition of the surrounding atmosphere and the time prior to coating of the surface should be taken into account because of the formation of different reaction layers. These layers have an effect on adhesion and the corrosion properties of the coating system as a whole. For a documentation of the influence of different atmospheres and the timedependence of the surface activity the measurement of the electrochemical noise is the preferred technique. This is because it shows instantaneously the actual activity, even in the absence of external excitation. The influence of different pre-treatments as well as exposure conditions and duration was investigated using electrochemical noise measurements as a screening method. As a result the pretreatment which is an important part of the coating process could be considerably improved.

The mechanical properties of this alloy are similar to those of human bone; both Mg and Ca are essential elements in human body. The main problem is the high corrosion rate of this alloy. Two coating systems based on plasma-chemical oxidation and an organic dip coating are applied onto MgCa1.0 magnesium alloy in order to slow down the corrosion rate. The corrosion behaviour of the coated alloys was investigated with electrochemical noise measurements. The influence of hydrogen evolution and increasing pH-value on the cytotoxicity was examined. The results of these investigations suggest that a combination of both coating systems leads to promising degradation properties.

The quality of such coatings depends mainly on the pretreatment and the exposure conditions after pretreatment. Since magnesium surfaces change much faster under atmospheric conditions than those of almost any other technical material, it is necessary to pay special attention to this particular feature. The activity of acid-pickled surfaces of the magnesium alloys AZ31 and AZ91 in dependence on the exposure time and the humidity conditions was investigated with electrochemical noise (EN) measurements. In addition to pickling, plasma chemical vapour deposition processes open new possibilities for an economical, as well as ecologically quite safe, pretreatment. The results of EN investigations after acid pickling as well as specific plasma oxidation treatments of the two magnesium alloys after exposure to air with different humidities are presented.

It is shown that an optimised solution annealing (T4-heat treatment) can reduce the degradation rate while an additional ageing between 240 and 300 °C (T6-heat treatment) increases it. A coating generated by plasma-chemical oxidation reduces the degradation rate in the immersion test. Its effect is depending on the former heat treatment of the Mg-1Ca alloy as well as on the parameter during plasma-chemical oxidation.
