Surface preparation water jetting

SP 12/NACE 5 Surface Preparation and Cleaning of Steel and Other Hard Materieds by High- and Ultrahigh-Pressure Water Jetting Prior to Recoating SP 13/NACE 6 Surface Preparation of Concrete SP 14/NACE 8 Industrial Blast Cleaning... 

Although abrasive blasting and water jetting are widely used for plants, ships, bridges and other large systems there is a great variety of other methods that can be used to prepare a surface for the final coating application. 

Droplets of various hquids were prepared in several ways. For example, a macroscopic drop was first deposited on the substrate and then absorbed from an edge using filter paper. In other cases a macroscopic drop was blown away with a jet of N2 or air. These processes leave a surface that appears dry to the naked eye but still contains many tiny droplets that can be observed with SPFM. If the droplets are of aqueous solutions, the water vapor pressure in the chamber, with which they readily equilibrate, determines their size. For hquids with low vapor pressure, films and droplets can be formed by condensation from a warmed reservoir. 

To address this problem water-insoluble latex copolymers containing the covalently bounded dye /V-(2,4-dinitropheny I)-1,4-pheny lene-diamine have been prepared. When printed as ink jet ink, latex particulates formed a hydrophobic print film on the media surface, thereby entrapping and protecting the colorant within the film. The process for preparing these agents consisted of initially forming the Diels-Adler adduct with furan and maleimide followed by a transimidation with 3-amino-1-propanol. 

Prepare the thin-film dsDNA electrochemical biosensor by free adsorption from 100 pL of 60 pg/mL dsDNA solution in pH 4.5 0.1 M acetate buffer onto the HOPG surface and incubate it to 3 min. Stop the adsorption process by gently rinsing the sample with a jet of Milli-Q water, dry the HOPG with adsorbed DNA with nitrogen and image it in air [1],... 

A great majority of the composite nanofibers are of a conventional structure where tiie nanoparticles are contained within tiie matrix of the nanofiber. However, anotiier class of composites (referred to here as exocomposites for convenience) consists of the nanoparticles partially embedded in and decorating the surface of the nanofibers. These might be prepared by posttreatment of tiie nanofiber or by electrospinning in a dusty environment, allowing nanoparticles to come into contact witii the moist elongating jet. These decorated nanofibers may be of interest in applications such as the rapid delivery of poorly soluble bioactive materials via a water-soluble nanofiber exocomposite mat, in optical devices, or as chemical/biological sensors. These will be briefly discussed at tiie end of the chapter.
