Definitions
- the application relates generally to surface treatments and coatings to prevent scale build up and H2S and C02-induced corrosion and provide sweet gas and sour gas resistance and water/oil repellency.
- Sour gas is any gas, but often natural gas, containing significant amounts of ThS.

- the coatings described herein may be applied to various metal surfaces in industrial environments, including, but not limited to, geometrically complex surfaces located in inaccessible or hard-to-reach areas. Such surfaces include, purely as a non limiting example, the interior and exterior surfaces of heat exchangers inside power plants. It should further be appreciated that one or more methods may be used to apply the coatings that embody the invention to a given surface, such as, for example, spraying, brushing, and the like.
- One good method of applying the corrosion resistant alloy coating is a brush plating process that involves packaging ionic and/or nonionic electrolytes, such as a copper
- electroplating solution in moldable solid form, eliminating the need for electrolyte recirculation or dipping of the brush plating wand in the electrolyte solution.
- electrolyte in a solid form, there is no need for liquid electrolytes to be used in the brush plating process. Water is sprayed on to the electrode to maintain conductivity.
- a solid electrolyte having precursor, binder and medium in solid or semisolid form and a tool having the product combined in an electrode/electrolyte assembly for electrochemical treatment of a substrate may be used.
- the solid electrolyte may include metal salts,
- the binder may include polymers polyethylene oxide, polyvinyl pyrolidone, silicones, inorganic binders, silicate, and surfactants or cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide.
- the medium may include aqueous or non-aqueous solvent, ionic liquid or aprotic solvent.
- the solid electrolyte is a moldable or conformable solid or semisolid in moldable form.
- the electrode may be a conducting metallic or nonmetallic wire, rods, tube foil, plate, sheet, foam or mesh and further has a DC power connection to the electrode. A handle is connected to the electrode. A DC power connection also is connected to the substrate.
- the solid electrolyte material is an electroplating, electropolishing, electrowinning, electroetching or anodizing electrochemical, and the electrochemical treatment includes electroplating, electropolishing, electrowinning, electrochemical etching or anodization.
- the invention provides an ionic or nonionic electrolyte in a moldable solid or semisolid form.
- the ionic or nonionic electrolyte is a mixture of precursor, binder and medium.
- the solid electrode is formed with a mixture of electrochemical material and binder.
- the solid electrolyte may be attached to an electrode, a DC connector applied to the electrode and a handle provided on the electrode. A DC connector is applied to a substrate and the substrate is wetted with solvent. Holding the electrode and solid electrolyte with the handle and moving the solid electrolyte in contact with the wetted surface of the substrate completes the process.
- the wetting may involve spraying a solvent mist on the substrate.
- the precursor may be a metal salt, copper chloride, chromium chloride, nickel sulfate, organic compounds, pyridine, pyrrole, aniline, organometallic compounds, trimethylgallium, trimethylindium or trimethylaluminum, as examples.
- the solid electrolyte precursor and the precursors are transferred from the solid electrolyte to a surface of the substrate by using the handle to move the solid electrolyte over the surface of the substrate when the surface or the electrolyte is slightly wetted with solvent.
- a solid electrolyte containing high concentration of metal may be used which can release metal ions upon rubbing and applying electrical potential between electrode and the substrate only when the electrolyte is sufficiently hydrated. It is possible to store sufficient quantities of metal ions in the form of electrolyte and to deliver them to the necessary location as desired during the plating process.
- the solid electrolyte can be attached to the existing wand and can be covered with the cloth and brush plating, which can be performed similar to existing practices.
- Figs 5A and 5B commercial copper surfactant solution containing nearly 10wt% of copper octanoate is used without any purification.
- a known amount of a polymer binder polyethylene oxide
- copper octanoate solution in water for 30 minutes.
- the homogenized solution is poured in to plastic 2"x2"x2" cube molds and dried in a vacuum oven at 80°C for two days.
- the fabricated solid copper electrolyte polymer 1 is used for brush plating copper on steel coupons 3.
- a DC potential is applied between the steel plate 3 and a copper wand, i.e., brushing electrode 4 covered with the solid copper electrolyte 1 as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B.
- the copper electrolyte 1 is hydrated occasionally with few drops (l-2mL) of water to maintain electrical conductivity. Alternatively, a mist of water is sprayed on the substrate. Copper is deposited on the steel plate 3 by brushing the copper electrolyte 1 over the steel plate 3.
