Shipment, Stora.ge, ndPrices. Methyl vinyl ether is available in tank cars or cylinders, while the other vinyl ethers are available in tank cars, tank wagons, or dmms. Mild steel, stainless steel, and phenoHc-coated steel are suitable for shipment and storage. If protected from air, moisture, and acidic contamination, vinyl ethers are stable for years. United States bulk prices in 1991 for methyl vinyl ether, ethyl vinyl ether, and butyl vinyl ether were listed as about 5.78/kg, 6.28/kg, and 6.08/kg, respectively.

Tire Cord. Melamine resins are also used to improve the adhesion of mbber to reinforcing cord in tires. Textile cord is normally coated with a latex dip solution composed of a vinylpyridine—styrene—butadiene latex mbber containing resorcinol—formaldehyde resin.. The dip coat is cured prior to use. The dip coat improves the adhesion of the textile cord to mbber. Further improvement in adhesion is provided by adding resorcinol and hexa(methoxymethyl) melamine [3089-11 -0] (HMMM) to the mbber compound which is in contact with the textile cord. The HMMM resin and resorcinol cross-link during mbber vulcanization and cure to form an interpenetrating polymer within the mbber matrix which strengthens or reinforces the mbber and increases adhesion to the textile cord. Brass-coated steel cord is also widely used in tires for reinforcement. Steel belts and bead wire are common apphcations. Again, HMMM resins and resorcinol [108-46-3] are used in the mbber compound which is in contact with the steel cord to reinforce the mbber and increase the adhesion of the mbber to the steel cord. This use of melamine resins is described in the patent Hterature (49). 

Decorative. Titanium nitride has a golden color and is used extensively to coat steel and cemented carbide substrates for watch cases, watch bands, eyeglass frames, etc. It provides exceUent scratch resistance as weU as the desired aesthetic appearance, and it replaces gold coatings used previously. 

Materials of Construction and Operational Stress. Before a centrifugal separation device is chosen, the corrosive characteristics of the Hquid and soHds as weU as the cleaning and saniti2ing solutions must be deterrnined. A wide variety of materials may be used. Most centrifuges are austenitic stainless steels however, many are made of ordinary steel, mbber or plastic coated steel. Monel, HasteUoy, titanium, duplex stainless steel, and others. The solvents present and of course the temperature environment must be considered in elastomers and plastics, including composites. 

A reversal of potential of the tin—iron couple occurs when tin-coated steel (tin-plate) is in contact with acid solutions in the absence of air. The tin coating acts as an anode it is the tin that is slowly attacked and not the steel. This unique property is the keystone of the canning industry because dissolved iron affects the flavor and appearance of the product. Thus, the presence of tin protects the appearance and flavor of the product. 

The most significant chemical property of zinc is its high reduction potential. Zinc, which is above iron in the electromotive series, displaces iron ions from solution and prevents dissolution of the iron. For this reason, zinc is used extensively in coating steel, eg, by galvanizing and in zinc dust paints, and as a sacrificial anode in protecting pipelines, ship hulls, etc. 

Boron, as barium metaborate, is marketed as a mildew preventative for paints (273). Borax is used as a wood preservative, and an organic boron, 2,2 -(l-methyltrimethylenedioxy)-bis(4,4,6-trimethyl)-l,3,2-dioxaborinane (Biobor JF) [14697-50-80] is a biocide for jet fuel (274). Whereas tin metal is used to coat steel cans used as food containers, organic tin in the form of tributyl tin compounds have proven to be powerfiil antimicrobials, and have found use in antifouHng coatings for ship bottoms, paints, and wood preservatives (275). 

Application. Pairs of pipes have been buried in 11 different locations to determine corrosion on nonbitiiminoiis pipe coatings for underground use. One type includes a lead-coated steel pipe and the other a bare steel pipe.

Since the sample t of—2.86 < tabled t of—2.228, reject Hq and accept Hy, that is, it has been demonstrated that, on the basis of the evidence, lead-coated steel pipe has a greater corrosion resistance than bare steel pipe. 

Materials of Construction A wide variety of materials is available for tanks, as indicated earlier. Most mechanisms are made of steel however, submerged parts may be made of wood, stainless steel, rubber-covered or coated steel, or special alloys. 

Aluminum coatings on steel will perform in a manner similar to zinc coatings. Aluminum has good resistance to many atmospheres in addition, being anodic to steel, it will galvanically protect exposed areas. Aluminum-coated steel products are quite serviceable under high-temperature conditions, for which gooa oxidation resistance is required.

Cell formation can easily be detected by measuring potential if coated surfaces with no pores have a more positive potential than uncoated material. Usually this is the case with coated steel in solutions containing oxygen. More negative potentials can only arise with galvanized steel surfaces. Figure 5-4 shows examples of measured cell currents [9,10,16]. 

Aluminum and aluminum-clad steels am highly resistant to naphthenic acids under most conditions. Aluminum-coated steels give good service until coatings fail at coating imperfections, cracks, welds, or other voids. In general, the use of aluminum and aluminized... 

If the rf source is applied to the analysis of conducting bulk samples its figures of merit are very similar to those of the dc source [4.208]. This is also shown by comparative depth-profile analyses of commercial coatings an steel [4.209, 4.210]. The capability of the rf source is, however, unsurpassed in the analysis of poorly or nonconducting materials, e.g. anodic alumina films [4.211], chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-coated tool steels [4.212], composite materials such as ceramic coated steel [4.213], coated glass surfaces [4.214], and polymer coatings [4.209, 4.215, 4.216]. These coatings are used for automotive body parts and consist of a number of distinct polymer layers on a metallic substrate. The total thickness of the paint layers is typically more than 100 pm. An example of a quantitative depth profile on prepainted metal-coated steel is shown as in Fig. 4.39.

The potential of LA-based techniques for depth profiling of coated and multilayer samples have been exemplified in recent publications. The depth profiling of the zinc-coated steels by LIBS has been demonstrated [4.242]. An XeCl excimer laser with 28 ns pulse duration and variable pulse energy was used for ablation. The emission of the laser plume was monitored by use of a Czerny-Turner grating spectrometer with a CCD two-dimensional detector. The dependence of the intensities of the Zn and Fe lines on the number of laser shots applied to the same spot was measured and the depth profile of Zn coating was constructed by using the estimated ablation rate per laser shot. To obtain the true Zn-Fe profile the measured intensities of both analytes were normalized to the sum of the line intensities. The LIBS profile thus obtained correlated very well with the GD-OES profile of the same sample. Both profiles are shown in Fig. 4.40. The ablation rate of approximately 8 nm shot ...
