REDOX REACTIONS
Redox reactions are all the chemical
reactions in which atoms have their oxidation
number(oxidation state)changed.
Substances that have the ability to oxidize
other substances are known as oxidizing
agents. For example chemical elements or
substances with elements in high oxidation
numbers such as H2O2 or highly
electronegative substance.
Substances that have the ability to reduce
other substances are known as reducing
agents. For example electropositive
substances like iron, sodium, magnesium.
 Oxidation of elemental iron to iron(III) oxide by
oxygen which is commonly known as rusting
 4 Fe + 3 O2 → 2 Fe2O3
 The process of electroplating uses redox
reactions to coat objects with a thin layer of a
material, as in chrome plated automotive parts,
silver plating cutlery, and gold-plated jewellery.
Oxidation resistant coatings currently
used
 Plating of corrosion resistant materials such as
cadmium, chromium, gold.
 Rhenium (Re) based alloy coating for high
temperature applications.
 Ceramics are also used in the design of corrosion
resistance coatings.
Need for coating techniques
 The cadmium plating has been widely used for
corrosion protection of steel work pieces.
However the environmental protection
regulations have restricted the use of cadmium,
which is considered to be toxic.
 The chromium-containing materials also need to
be carefully handled to avoid the formation of
chromate phase.
 High cost of other coating materials such as
rhenium
 Highvelocity Oxy fuel technique.
High density metal coating with little change in

metal composition.
sprayed particles with a supersonic speed over
500 m/s with temperatures of 2000ºC by using
gas shroud system.
 The spray material, AISI 316L stainless
steel(SUS316L) and nickel base alloy, HastelloyC
(HstC)
 High resistance of HstC against
crevice and pitting corrosion in the
presence of chloride.
 The feed stock powder of SUS316L and HstC
were 25–53 µm in size.
RESULTS
 theporosity of the coatings is inversely related to
their oxygen content
 Theporosity increases with decrease in in flight
velocity.
 Variation
of porosity with in flight velocity by
using a gas shroud system.
 The relationship between polarization resistance
and porosity is shown in graph.
 The corrosion resistance is directly proportion to
the polarization resistance.
CONCLUSION
 Fabrication of denser and less-oxidized coatings
required higher velocity and lower temperature
of sprayed particles which is achieved using a
gas shroud system.
 HastelloyC was a suitable material for HVOF
spraying to form corrosion resistant coatings
because of its high resistance against thermal
oxidation as well as seawater corrosion.
PROCEDURE USED FOR COATING
 The platinum aluminide coating is deposited
electromechanically on to the titanium alloy IMI
834.
 The platinum is first coated on to the substrate
to a thickness of 5µm.
 Diffusion treatment at 700ºC for 2 hours under
an argon atmosphere.
 Then aluminum is deposited over the platinum
and diffusion treatment was done.
