Molybdenum and molybdenum alloy (TZM) can be protected against oxygen in hightemperature environment by developing silicide coating on their surface without damaging their mechanical properties. In this study, molybdenum di-silicide was coated on pure molybdenum and its alloy (TZM) surfaces using a molten salt method. NaCl-KCl-NaF eutectic composition was used as salt mixture, and Na2SiF6 and silicon powder were added to the system as silicon source. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Inductively Coupled Plasma – Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used for characterization of the silicide coatings. Effects of operating temperature and time on coating thickness for both pure molybdenum and TZM alloy were studied. Also, effect of silicon sources; Na2SiF6 and silicon powder, on thickness of silicide layer was investigated. While higher operating temperature had limited effect on coating thickness for pure molybdenum samples, thicker coatings were obtained at lower temperatures for TZM alloy samples. Also, longer operating time slightly increased coating thickness for pure molybdenum substrates, however; it had a significant effect for TZM alloy samples for 4 hours of processing time. Although amount of silicon sources in salt mixture had no effect on coating thickness for pure molybdenum samples, amount of silicon in salt mixture had an enormous effect for TZM alloy samples. Also, molybdenum di-silicide coated TZM alloy samples were tested at high-temperature oxygen environment, and it was proved that silicide coating is protective against oxidation by forming silica.

Carbon coating of magnesium particles Aktekin, Burak; Eyovge, Cavit; Öztürk, Tayfur (2017-10-05) Magnesium when hydrided has low thermal and electrical conductivity and carbon coating would be useful to remedy this for a variety of purposes. In this study, carbon coating was achieved by co-feeding magnesium and methane into a thermal plasma reactor. This yielded carbonaceous material with magnesium particles 5-10 nm in size embedded in graphitic matrix. A further reduction down to 2-3 nm was possible but required reductions in the precursor feed rate. 2 wt% carbon was sufficient to fully protect magnes...
Electrochemical Formation of Alloys of Scandium in Molten Salts polat, çağlar; ERDOĞAN, METEHAN; iplikçioğlu, Safder; Karakaya, İshak (2018-02-01) The Al-Sc alloy formation by the reduction of Sc containing compounds in a molten salt containing CaCl2 was investigated in this study. The preliminary tests revealed that Al3Sc intermetallic, which gives the superior properties to this alloy, was successfully formed and distributed homogeneously throughout the Al matrix. XRD, SEM-EDS and optical microscopy analyses were used to confirm the results.
Anodization of Ti6Al7Nb Alloy for Orthopaedic Applications İzmir, Merve; Ercan, Batur (null; 2017-12-31) In recent years, nanostructured oxide films on titanium alloy surfaces have gained significant interest due to their electrical, catalytic and biological properties. In literature, there is variety of different approaches to fabricate nanostructured oxide films. Among these methods, anodization technique, which allows fine-tuning of oxide film thickness, feature size, topography and chemistry, is one of the most popular approaches to fabricate nanostructured oxide films on titanium alloys, and it has been w...
Corrosion behaviours of Ti6Al4V-Mg/Mg-Alloy composites ESEN, ZİYA; Ocala, Ezgi Butev; Akkaya, Asli; Gurcay, Bensu; Ozcan, Ceren; Ozgumus, Burcu Asli; Duygulu, Ozgur; Dericioğlu, Arcan Fehmi (Elsevier BV, 2020-04-15) The effect of coupling of unalloyed Mg and Mg-alloys (AZ91 and WE43) with Ti6Al4V alloy on corrosion and degradation behaviours of produced composites has been investigated in simulated body fluid (SBF) by hydrogen evolution, and surface and electrochemical characterization techniques. Combining of unalloyed Mg with Ti6Al4V intensified galvanic corrosion and catastrophic failure occurred by initiation of microcracks formed by sudden hydrogen gas evolution. In contrast to other composites, Ti6Al4V-AZ91 compo...
Electrochemical and chemical oxidation of K(C2H5OCS2),[Ni(C2H5OCS2)(2)] and [N(C2H5)(4)][Ni(C2H5OCS2)(3)] Dag, O; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar; Isci, H (1996-06-26) Electrochemical and chemical oxidation of (Et-Xan(-)), [Ni(Et-Xan)(2)] and [Ni(Et-Xan)(3)](-) (Et-Xan(-) = C2H5OCS2- have been studied by Cyclic Voltammetry and in situ UV-Vis spectroscopy in acetonitrile at room temperature. Cyclic Voltammograms (CV) of Et-Xan(-) and Ni(Et-Xan)(2) display one (0.00 V) and two (0.35 and 0.80 V) irreversible oxidation peaks, respectively, referenced to Ag/Ag+(0.10 M) electrode. However, CV of Ni(Et-Xan)(3)(-) displays one reversible (-0.15 V) and two irreversible (0.35, 0.80...
