Benefits of Polymer- Based Ceramic Protective Coating Compound

 Several million dollars worth of equipment is lost every year due to corrosion, abrasion, and chemical attack. Worldwide studies show that nearly 80% of equipment failures occur due to surface erosion, thus it is imperative to create a preventive maintenance strategy. The best defense against corrosion and oxidation is protection.


Polymer-based ceramic protective coating compounds are thin layers of coating or paint made from polymers that provide superior adhesion and corrosion resistance. It is a molecule made up of many smaller molecules called monomers formed from the joining together of many similar molecules.

Benefits of Polymer-based ceramic protective coating compound


The use of ceramic coatings as a surface protection alternative to organic and widely used polymer-based coatings is rapidly gaining traction. While organic coating is quite economical than ceramic protective coating and requires very less skill, they are not suitable for certain environments due to their limitations.

Below are some the benefits of ceramic protective coating:


  • Protection against corrosion


A dried ceramic protective coating forms a passive, impervious top layer when its outer shell chemically bonds with the metal substrate. Air and moisture are prevented from contacting the underlying metal with this layer. 


Each year, oil and gas companies suffer billions of dollars worth of corrosion damage. Ceramic protecting coatings are typically applied to pipelines and other offshore equipment to prevent corrosion. As a result, maintenance downtime can be decreased, repair costs may be minimized, and equipment lifespan can be extended.


  • Reduction of friction


By accelerating wear and tear between components, friction can decrease equipment lifespan and slow down machinery parts.

In addition to their high hardness, the ceramic protective coating has a very low coefficient of friction. Therefore, reducing friction is achieved by allowing components to "slide" over each other more easily.

Ceramic protective coatings are typically used for pumps, conveyors, ball bearings, etc.


  • Insulation of electrical systems


The properties of the ceramic protective coating, such as their high resistance to electric current, make them particularly suitable for insulation applications.

Electric insulation materials are also popular in mechanical, industrial, and automotive industries besides the electronics and electrical industries.

 


  • Insulation against the heat


Thermal fatigue, warping, and melting of metal components are common problems associated with overheating. Thermal barriers are materials that are applied to metallic surfaces operating at high temperatures. Ceramic protective coatings form an effective thermal barrier that limits the thermal exposure of structural components.


There are ceramic coatings that can withstand temperatures above 1200° F (650° C). Composite ceramics can withstand temperatures up to 1600° F (870° C).


Ceramic protective coatings in the aviation industry can prevent turbine alloys from melting and thermal cycling. As a result of thermal barriers used in conjunction with cool air, internal combustion temperatures can be raised and turbine thrust efficiency can be increased.

 

  • The aesthetics


In addition to providing protection, ceramic protective coatings have a vitreous appearance. Ceramic-based vehicle coatings are more preferred in the automotive industry since they maintain their glossy finish for long periods.


Additionally, ceramic-based paint helps vehicles be more hygienic and does not require frequent waxing. 


Additionally, ceramic protective coating are used for dental surgery to replicate a natural, "pearly white" appearance due to their glossy appearance and durability.

 

Conclusion


They can be used as alternatives to traditional organic paints due to their versatility. In some cases, ceramic coatings can provide several benefits over organic-based paints, including corrosion resistance. Consequently, ceramic coatings are appropriate for applications that conventional paint is ineligible to perform.

Despite their higher initial cost due to their higher material cost and the cost of skilled labor and equipment required to use them, ceramics can result in significant long-term savings because they require less maintenance and repair operations.

Alumina Toughened Zirconia - Introduction & Applications

  Introduction Alumina Toughened Zirconia products are products made from zirconia and alumina. Zirconia is an oxide of zircon that is often added to other materials because of its durability. Typically, zirconia tuff alumina has a zirconia fraction of about one-tenth or one-fifth. However, this quantity can be adjusted as per the requirement of the product.  ATZ Ceramics is the perfect balance between price and value. ATZ products are stronger than normal alumina products. They are less expensive than pure zirconia products. So, with Alumina Toughened Zirconia products, you get the best of both worlds. Although both zirconia toughened alumina and alumina toughened zirconia have the same raw material, it is important not to confuse the two composites. In alumina solid zirconia, the ratio of alumina to zirconia is low. In zirconia hard alumina, the opposite is the case. Properties of Alumina toughened zirconia One of the most remarkable properties of alumina toughened zircon...
