“…[1][2][3] Furthermore, earlier workers also have not discussed the role of interconnected porosity, which renders that such deposits are useless for corrosion resistance coatings unless attention has been attracted to consolidate their porous structure. 4,5 High energy processes at glance Ion plating differs from the ion implantation and laser treatment processes in that, unlike the other processes, a visible coating is formed on the modified surface after ion plating. It is a modern deposition technique in which high energies are imparted to the vapour atoms by means of a glow discharge, resulting in the formation of an adherent surface coating.…”

“…The high energy surface processes [1][2][3][4][5] and surface modification techniques are solid state interaction aimed at metallic surfaces, revealing improved mechanical properties and resistance to oxidation and corrosion. Such surface altered substrates affect the changes of the specific and selected physicochemical properties like resistance to wear, erosion, corrosion, stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and corrosion fatigue.…”

This technical note discusses recent advances in the field of high energy surface alloying with particular reference to their non-stoichiometric solid state interaction and their corrosion resistance behaviour by electrochemical techniques. High energy treated surfaces undergo solid state interaction like diffusion, unconventional miscibility, solid solubility and nonstoichiometric compositions which impose a certain degree of metastability on the surface, which alters the electrode surfaces significantly. By introducing a high degree of surface metastability, it is possible to create scope for the physical and chemical properties of the electrodes. This transition of the interface from the metastable state to a stable state is normally accompanied by the formation of a stress free stable thin adherent and protective surface oxide layer. All these aspects are discussed in the present paper in the context of their corrosion resistance industrial usage, in particular to chloroalkali industrial applications. A generalised mechanism of protection of these high energy treated surfaces, is proposed based on surface metastability induced on the surface, as a result of the non-stoichiometry of solid state processing and its electrochemical interactions.

“…The need to reduce the worldwide energy consumption forces the introduction of more energy efficient systems and for this reason, the growth of the annual consumption of amorphous steels, which have 70% lower core losses, is expected to be 20% higher than that of conventional electrical steels [11] . The total U.S. market for soft magnetic materials is approximately 2 billion $ annually.…”

After discussing various applications of nanocrystalline solids which are presently under development, this paper describes in more detail the potential use of nanocrystalline materials for the production of sodium chlorate, a paper bleaching agent. The technology and advantages of using nanocrystalline solids as cathode material for this electrochemical process are discussed. The paper concludes by presenting the world market and potential savings associated with the use of this new technology.
