Improved wetting of bare and pre-coated steels by aqueous alumina sols for optimum coating success
(2010)
Alumina coatings are a promising candidate for
the protection of metals prone to high temperature corrosion.
If applied via sol–gel process, especially by using so
called aqueous modified Yoldas-sols, the deposition is
hardened by differences in surface free energy of substrate
and sol. In this paper the apparent surface properties of
samples to be coated and sols were examined by contact
angle measurements, IR-spectroscopy and tensiometry.
The results imply, after consideration of possible uncertainties,
the use of surface tension reducing 2-butanol
already present during hydrolysis of the sols to obtain an
easy and successful coating process.
