PROTECTIVE COATINGS FOR PETROCHEMICAL AND CHEMICAL INDUSTRY EQUIPMENT AND DEVICES

摘要

Provided are coated petrochemical and chemical industry devices and methods of making and using such coated devices. In one form, the coated petrochemical and chemical industry device includes a petrochemical and chemical industry device including one or more bodies, and a coating on at least a portion of the one or more bodies, wherein the coating is chosen from an amorphous alloy, a heat-treated electroless or electro plated based nickel-phosphorous composite with a phosphorous content greater than 12 wt%, graphite, MoS₂, WS₂, a fullerene based composite, a boride based cermet, a quasicrystalline material, a diamond based material, diamond-like-carbon (DLC), boron nitride, and combinations thereof. The coated petrochemical and chemical industry devices may provide for reduced friction, wear, corrosion and other properties required for superior performance.
