Corrosion creep chemical composition

For the cyclic corrosion test, a layer of acrylosilane polymer coating (10-25 fim thick) was dip-coated onto the plasma-deposited substrates. The coated samples were then subjected to 25 scab cycles. The test results are plotted in Fig. 7. Corrosion performance (as described by the length of scribe creep) was correlated to the wattage used for plasma film deposition. As discussed in the previous section, the chemical structure and properties correlated with the deposition conditions, especially the power level applied. Therefore, atomic compositions for plasma polymers deposited at different power levels were also plotted in Fig. 7.A... 

Highly cross-linked epoxy resins combine high strength stiffness thermal, chemical, and environmental stability adhesion low weight processability excellent creep resistance and favorable economics. These resins are widely applied as coatings, casting resins, structural adhesives, and matrix resins of advanced composite materials. The broad spectrum of applications ranges from the automotive and aerospace industries to corrosion protection and microelectronics.
