New nano-crystal developed by Iranian Researchers
15 September 2008Iranian researchers have developed a pure nano-crystal coated with titanium. A recent technique known as plasma electrolytic boriding was used for making the new material, which could find use in a number of modern equipment.
The research finding was published in the Journal of Material Science and according to the team’s lead researcher Mahmoud Aliof Khazrael, the new material could be of significant use in various industries such as oil, gas military aerospace, automotive and petrochemical industries. The new nano-crystal could also be useful for making Formula 1 racecars.
The newly developed nanocrystal coated titanium was tested for various physico-chemical characteristics including corrosion and erosion of the material under standard test conditions. Researchers conclude that the corrosion and erosion properties of the nanocrystal depend on the various characteristics including size, form and distribution of nanocrystal in the coating.
Researchers also examined other factors that are responsible for influencing the hardening process as these factors ultimately reflect the corrosion and erosion properties of the coatings.
