Enhancement of tribological performance in Li2TiO3/ZrO2 composite coating prepared by industrial hot-dip galvanization process

Development of an intense yellow-coloured BiVO4/ZrO2composite coating for anticorrosion multifunctional cool roofing

“…Initially, a mild steel substrate was subjected to hot-dip galvanization after different pre-treatment processes and fixing of the galvanization process's operating parameters. [25][26][27] After various processes, such as cleaning with acetone followed by drying, the traditional hot-dip galvanization was modified by a process of phosphating, which included immersion of the coatings in a phosphating bath for 20 min in the presence of BVZ composite. The bath compositions are summarized in Table S1 (ESI †).…”
