Definitions

  • the present invention relates to coatings that improve the resistance of aluminium and aluminium alloy articles to corrosion.
  • the present invention also relates to methods that can be used to improve the resistance of aluminium and aluminium alloy articles to corrosion.
  • High strength-weight ratio metal alloys such as aluminium (Al) alloys are used in numerous applications in aerospace, automotive, marine and construction industries due to their light weight and attractive mechanical properties. Unfortunately, in practice, the corrosion resistance of these alloys in general tends to be poor.
  • Corrosion involves the reaction between a metal or alloy and its environment. Corrosion is affected by the properties of the metal or alloy as well as environmental variables such as pH, oxidation potential, temperature, fluid flow, and solution constituents. With aluminium and its alloys there are two main types of corrosion that occur; pitting corrosion and cathodic corrosion. Cathodic corrosion occurs in high pH environments where the outer layer of aluminium oxide dissociates and hydroxide ions react with, and dissolve, metallic aluminium. Pitting corrosion of aluminium occurs in aqueous media with a pH range of 4.5 to 9.0 and during the exposure of aluminium to halogen (i.e. CY) rich environments.
  • halogen i.e. CY
  • Corrosion control is an ongoing problem with metal articles made from these alloys and it has been estimated that corrosion control in the USA costs up to $200 billion/yr alone (see Koch, G. http://www.corrosioncost.com/news/2002/corrosioncosts.htm). Consequently, mitigation of corrosion of alloys has been the focus of much research.
  • Articles can be protected from corrosion by coating the base material. Coatings may prevent corrosion by forming a barrier between the metal and its environment and/or by incorporating corrosion inhibiting substances in the coating.
  • Chromates deposited as hard-chrome have gained wide acceptance as corrosion inhibitors for a variety of metal substrates. However, they do not provide adequate corrosion and wear protection from harsh service conditions when used alone and they pose serious health and environmental risks due to the presence of leachable hexayalent chromium in the coating.
  • Coatings produced by anodizing are porous ceramic-like coatings. These properties impart good paint-adhesion characteristics and excellent wear and abrasion resistance to the coating. However, without sufficiently sealing topcoats, they are not adequate for use in applications where corrosion resistance is of primary importance.
  • the present invention arises from research into siloxanes that can be used to form corrosion resistant coatings for articles containing Al and Al alloys. Specifically we have found that a group of siloxanes have properties that are particularly suitable for forming corrosion resistant coatings on these metals. ⁇

  • BTESPEDC was hydrolysed by dissolving 5 vol% of the BTESPEDC in absolute ethanol (90%). The samples were ultrasonicated for 20 min to ensure dissolution. Addition of 5% DI water and acetic acid to decrease the pH from 4.5 to 3.5 initiated the hydrolysis reaction. The reaction was relatively slow and the solution was allowed to age for 3 days to ensure a workable solution was prepared.
  • Method 1 To obtain the rate of hydrolysis of silane in ethanol and water based solutions, a technique employing Attenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) FTIR in the mid infrared region was initially trialled. A hydrolysed solution of BTESPT was prepared and the pH was varied to study the effect of solution pH on the rate of hydrolysis. A 20 ⁇ , sample was taken from the reaction vessel and placed on the diamond and a spectrum was recorded. The frequency at which spectra were recorded was every two minutes for three hours. This allowed time for the instrument to take 64 scans with a resolution of 4 (the average spectral collection time was 90 sec). The overlayed spectra were scrutinised to find a peak that illustrated that the hydrolysis reaction was occurring.

To get the best resolution in standard TGA experiments, the slowest heating rate possible is required but this technique can take a long time for each analysis. HR-TGA decreases the heating rate when there is. a loss of sample mass, and increases the heating rate when there is no mass loss. The method is faster than using a constant low heating rate and has similar resolution. This technique was used with a sensitivity of 3 and a resolution of 6. The underlying heating rate was 10 * C/min, with a nitrogen gas flow rate of 50 ml/min.

  • AFM Atomic Force Microscopy
  • a typical AFM contains four major components: a tip that is mounted onto a cantilever, a piezoelectric stage, a sensitive detection system and an electrical feedback loop, which controls the height of the tip.
  • Common materials for the tip can be silicon or silicon nitride and when the tip is brought into close proximity to the surface of the sample, forces between the sample and the tip cause deflection due to Hookes law, which is measured with a sensitive photodiode detector.
  • CM AFM Contact Mode
  • TM Tapping Mode
  • CM AFM images the topography of the sample by keeping the force between the tip and the sample (cantilever deflection) constant.

  • the deflection on the laser is measured by the photodiode detector and is plotted to produce an image.
  • TM AFM topography is imaged similar to CM AFM.

  • the feedback loop maintains constant oscillating amplitude and a topographic image of the sample surface is produced.
  • the AFM technique allows high resolution imaging and can be used to determine how homogenous the surface is.
  • VEECO silicon nitride (NP-10) tips were used for CM AFM and Silicon (FESP) tips were employed for TM-AFM.

  • Each silane was hydrolysed, condensed and cured onto the AA2024-T3 Al alloy substrate.
  • the Al coated with silane was analysed using PA-FTIR to determine the extent of crosslinking within the film. Characteristic bands occurred for a typical siloxane film at 3300 cm “1 , 1 100 cm “1 and 900 cm '1 which represent the OH, Si-O-Si and Si-OH stretching vibrations respectively.
  • Table 3 Assigned bands for a) BTESPT, b) BTMSPA and c) BTESPEDC using PA-FTIR, where v is the stretching mode and ⁇ is the bending mode.
  • Morphology of silane coatings is extremely important in relation to their ability to inhibit corrosion. Any pores that may be present may initiate corrosion by enabling the transfer of ions and water across the film. The uniformity of the surface establishes the extent of crosslinking and the overall orientation of the silanes on the metal surface. For a film where the silane has many conformations, a less homogenous film would be obtained. Conversely, a film with mainly unidirectional crosslinked silanes would produce a homogenous coating. [0127] SEM enabled the microstructure of the silane films to be imaged at high resolution ( ⁇ ). SEM allows resolution at the nanoscale but due to electrons charging the surface, a microscale image could only be obtained.
  • Figure 2 shows SEM images obtained for AA2024-T3 coated with BTESPT and BTMSPA. Both show a uniform coating with only the BTMSPA showing signs of pores ( Figure 2a).
  • the morphology of the silane was homogenous with not much visual depth variation or coagulation. Part of the silane solution agglomerated on the film surface, appearing as white particles on the image.
  • BTESPEDC was hydrolysed for 48 hrs and 72 hrs to observe the effect of hydrolysis time on the film morphology. This is clearly illustrated in Figure 3, where (a) is a film produced after a 48 hrs hydrolysis and (b) is a film produced after a 72 hrs hydrolysis. Both condensation steps were carried out at pH 7.5.
  • the coagulation evident in image (a) illustrates the importance of the hydrolysis step when producing a homogenous film. If there is not enough silanol groups present after hydrolysis (ie; if the solution is not workable), the degree of crosslinking is hindered. Furthermore, the network produced through crosslinking is reduced, resulting in pores and reduced stability. This has also been seen for mono-silanes, as they only have three hydrolysable groups and hence produce a more heterogeneous film , when compared to bis-silanes.
  • AFM was used for analysis of the morphology and surface roughness of films adhered onto the AA2024-T3 Al alloy substrate.
  • the films were prepared as described previously and were analysed by both contact mode (CM) and tapping mode (TM).
  • the thermal stability of a silane relates to the extent of crosslinking; the more crbsslinking, the more stable the network is when put under extreme conditions such as heat.
  • the ability of a silane to withstand extreme environments is an important factor that needs to be considered for industrial use.
  • the stability of a silane is related to many aspects, such as the degree of hydrolysis and condensation and the functional groups present in the silane molecule.
  • the type of functionality present in the silane can affect the density of the film and thus the films thermal stability. More hydrophobic films, such as those produced using BTESPT, are generally less dense as there are no strong secondary interactions (such as hydrogen bonding) within the film.
  • BTESPT produces a highly hydrophobic film that only contains sulfur and alkyl functionality. The only interactions that can occur between the molecules to enhance the crosslinking effect are between S-bridges.
  • BTMSPA is a water-based silane with amine group that can undergo hydrogen bonding between molecules, producing a more dense film.
  • Event 2 for BTMSPA has been proposed to be the result of hydrogen bonding that is involved throughout the siloxane network.
  • the hydrogen bonding also accounts for the high decomposition temperature of BTMSPA (event 3) when compared to BTESPT (event 2).

Platinum mesh was used as counter electrode and Saturated Calomel Electrode was used as Reference Electrode for the tests. The test area was about 90 sq. mm per sample and immersed in 0.5 M of NaCI solution.
