I'm organizing a conference for the National Association for Surface Finishers (NASF). The meeting is entitled "Surface Engineering for Energy Generation, Conservation, and Transmission." One of the sessions, not surprisingly, is on energy conservation, and we would like to have at least one...
We have a customer concerned about the corrosion resistance of Ti64, and would like to run some corrosion tests, such as ASTM B117. Does anyone know what a typical time to corrode for Ti64 is in an ASTM B117 test? How long does it take if it is Tiodized (alkaline anodized)?

I need to develop a circuit that will integrate a pulsed voltage signal and provide an analog output to be fed to a PLC module. The pulses are from one to five milliseconds long, with a pulse rate maximum of around 30 Hz. I'd like to be able to reset the integrator between pulses. With...
We are working on a process to increase the corrosion resistance of hard coatings on steel. Our patented process involves three steps. Step one is to deposit by PVD a hard coating on the steel, TiN or the like. While these coatings are themselves very corrosion resistant, there are always...
