Geochemical and Magnetic Suseptibility Analysis for Critical Minerals Detection in Igneous Rocks and Beach Sand

Critical minerals are an important natural resource that will continue to be necessary for modern industries. This study aims to determine the distribution of critical minerals based on geochemical data and magnetic susceptibility. Samples were taken from Lenggoksono beach, Southern Malang. The determination of chemical elements was conducted using X-ray fluorescence (XRF). Rare Earth Elements (REE) were identified using Inductively Coupled Plasma–Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES). Magnetic susceptibility measurements were carried out using a Barrington Magnetic Susceptibility Meter (MS2B). The results showed that the dominant elements were Silica Oxide, SiO2 (70 Wt%), Iron Oxide, Fe2O3 (14.05 Wt%), and Calcium Oxide CaO (5.57 Wt%), which were categorized as critical minerals. The average REE elements detected were Cerium, Ce (6.75 mg/kg), Gadolinium, Gd (5.98 mg/kg), Neodymium, Nd (13.56 mg/kg), Praseodymium, Pr (6.62 mg/kg), Terbium, Tb (5.57 mg/kg), and Yttrium, Y (10.98 mg/kg). The magnetic susceptibility ranges from 13.27 to 4143.47 × 10-8m3/kg. Pearson’s Correlation analysis revealed a significant correlation between low-frequency magnetic susceptibility (ꭓlf) and high-frequency magnetic susceptibility (ꭓhf) with a significance level of 0.01. ꭓlf and ꭓhf also showed a significant correlation with Gd, with a correlation value of R² = 0.84 and a significance level of 0.05. These results indicate that the presence of one critical mineral can serve as a clue to the presence of other critical minerals, and magnetic susceptibility can be used as a proxy indicator for critical minerals in natural materials.

Stabilization of cuσ+ via strong Cu‐O‐Si interface for efficient electrocatalytic acetylene semi‐hydrogenation

AbstractThe development of a high‐performance electrocatalytic acetylene semi‐hydrogenation catalyst is the key to the selective removal of acetylene from industrial ethylene gas and non‐oil route to ethylene production. However, it is still hampered by the deactivation of the catalyst and hydrogen evolution interference. Here, we proposed an interface engineering strategy involving the Cu and cupric oxide nanoparticles dispersed on amorphous SiO2 (Cu/CuOx/SiO2) by a simple stöber method. x‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy demonstrated the strong interfacial interaction between cupric oxide nanoparticles and SiO2. The formed Cu‐O‐Si interface stabilized the Cuσ+ at high reduction potentials, thus improving the activity and stability of the acetylene reduction reaction, as confirmed by in situ Raman spectroscopy. Consequently, the electrochemical test results showed that at 0.5 M KHCO3, the maximum Faraday efficiency (FE) of ethylene on the optimized Cu/CuOx/SiO2 reached 96%. And ethylene FE remains above 85% at −100 mA cm−2 for 40 h.

Matrizes cimentícias com o uso de resíduos de construção e demolição para redução do impacto ambiental de blocos de pavimentação

The construction industry is responsible for the intensive consumption of natural resources and the generation of large volumes of construction and demolition waste (CDW), which are often disposed of improperly. This research developed concrete blocks using recycled CDW aggregates, promoting sustainability and circular economy by reusing these materials in urban infrastructure. Waste was collected from a recycling plant over five months, selecting Brita 1, Brita 0, and Pó de Brita to compose the concrete mixes. Particle size distribution, bulk density, and specific gravity tests were performed, and blocks and specimens were molded with 100% replacement of natural aggregates by CDW. The compressive strength tests were carried out at 14 and 28 days, while the abrasion test was performed only at 28 days. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the products. The results indicated a compressive strength of 34.3 MPa at 28 days, close to the minimum required by the standard (35 MPa). XRF analysis showed a predominance of SiO₂, CaO, Al₂O₃, Fe₂O₃, MgO, SO₃, and K₂O oxides, all within normative limits. Leaching and solubilization tests, conducted according to NBR 10005 and NBR 10006, classified the waste as non-hazardous and non-inert. This study demonstrates that using CDW in concrete block production is a viable and sustainable alternative, contributing to waste reduction, material reuse, and the development of sustainable urban infrastructure.

Study on the growth mechanism of Pt nanoparticles in oxides: Role of metal-oxide interactions

Strong interactions of metal nanoparticles (NPs) with oxide matrices can dramatically enhance the thermal stability of metal NPs. However, how metal-oxide interactions control the growth of metal NPs remains unclear. Here, the growth of Pt NPs with respect to metal-oxide interactions was investigated by encapsulating them in different Al2O3 and SiO2 oxides. Pt NPs encapsulated in Al2O3 exhibited excellent thermal stability than those in SiO2. Quantitative thermodynamic calculations revealed that metal-oxide interactions strongly governed the driving force for the coalescence of Pt in Al2O3 and SiO2. The kinetic analysis further showed that stronger Pt-Al2O3 interactions controlled the Ostwald ripening of Pt NPs by restricting the diffusion of Pt atoms in oxides, leading to a higher growth activation energy of Pt in Al2O3 than SiO2. These findings explain the different sinter resistance of metal NPs when encapsulated in different oxides, providing valuable insights for enhancing the thermal stability of metal NPs.

Synthesis of anatase powder by ilmenite digestion followed by selective thermal decomposition and leaching

This study investigates an innovative method for producing TiO2 from ilmenite ore through selective thermal decomposition and leaching. The focus lies on understanding the impact of co-existing sulfates on the decomposition temperature of TiOSO4. Insights into the decomposition mechanisms and parameters governing selective leaching efficiency are also presented. Ilmenite concentrate was digested with concentrated sulfuric acid, yielding titanium and iron sulfates. The digested cake was then calcined at different temperatures to induce thermal decomposition. Thermodynamic calculations were employed to model the decomposition reactions and investigate the influence of iron sulfates on TiOSO4 decomposition. Both thermodynamic evaluation and experimental results demonstrate that co-existing iron sulfates play a catalytic role in lowering the decomposition temperature of TiOSO4 from approximately 700 °C to below 500 °C, facilitating its conversion to TiO2. The calcined powder underwent selective leaching, first with water to remove soluble sulfates, followed by dilute acid to obtain a TiO2 precipitate. The precipitate was analyzed by different techniques.The XRD analysis confirmed the successful conversion of TiOSO4 to Anatase TiO2 during calcination and leaching. The SEM images show that the Anatase TiO2 powder displays a near-spherical morphology, with a particle size ranging from 50 to 200 nm. FTIR, DTA, and DTG analyses supported the thermodynamic calculations and XRD results, offering insights into the phase transformations during thermal decomposition and leaching. The thermodynamic evaluation and experimental results demonstrate that co-existing iron sulfates play a catalytic role in lowering the decomposition temperature of TiOSO4. By using the proposed method, anatase powder was successfully produced with minor impurities of iron, SiO2, and other metal oxides.

Coupled reactions in the system SrO–BaO–Al2O3–SiO2

Progress in the field of aircraft construction is usually determined by the functional capabilities of those materials that are used for the creation of aircraft equipment. Compositions of celsian-slawsonite ceramics belonging to the BaO–SrO–Al2O3–SiO2 oxide system are promising for use in the aircraft industry due to their high operational properties. In this regard, a theoretical study of its subsolidus structure is of great interest. The paper presents the results of calculating the Gibbs free energy for coupled reactions in the selected multicomponent system. The temperature intervals of the coexistence of phase combinations are given and the formed elementary tetrahedra are constructed. According to the results of theoretical studies, it is established that the considered multicomponent system is divided into 28 elementary tetrahedra. The existence of a combination of Sr2Al2SiO7–2SrSiO3–BaSiO3 phases in the temperature range of 300–700 K is confirmed, a "filled triangle" being formed between them. Based on the results of thermodynamic calculations, it is established that the reaction between Ba2SiO4 and SrAl2Si2O8 phases does not occur at temperatures up to 1200 K, and it is thermodynamically possible in the range of 1200–1700 K with the formation of a combination of BaSiO3–BaAl2O4–Sr2Al2SiO7 phases, which form a "filled circuit".

Microstructural evolution and 1500 °C oxidation resistance of Mo(Al,Si)2 fabricated via an innovative two-step SHS-SPS technique

An innovative two-step approach of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) and spark plasma sintering (SPS) was developed to rapidly fabricate MoSi2 and Mo(Al,Si)2 ceramics for high-temperature anti-oxidation applications. The SHS process predominantly promoted the synthesis of high-purity and high-yield MoSi2 and Mo(Si,Al)2 phases in the alloyed powders. Subsequently, dense and crack-free MoSi2 and Mo(Al,Si)2 ceramics were produced using SPS. 1500 °C oxidation tests of the ceramics (100 h) revealed the formation of a protective SiO2 oxide layer on the surface of MoSi2 ceramics, while an Al-Si-O composite glassy oxide layer formed on Mo(Si,Al)2 ceramics, which exhibited better thermal stability and lower oxygen permeability compared to the single SiO2 oxide layer. However, an excessive Al content (>0.05 at.%) compromised the oxidation resistance due to the emergence of a Si-depleted Mo5(Si,Al)3 layer with inferior oxidation resistance, which was caused by the high-temperature diffusion of Si. Therefore, via this novel two-step SHS-SPS technique compact and crack-free Mo(Si,Al)2 ceramics can be rapidly synthesized at high temperatures. When trace amount of Al was added (0.05 at.%), Mo(Si0.95Al0.05)2 showed optimum high-temperature oxidation resistance.

Strong spherical V2O5/TiO2–SiO2 composites obtained by template combined with sol-gel method

This study is devoted to the preparation of strong spherical composites V2O5/TiO2–SiO2 by a combined template and sol-gel method. The composition, size and shape of the colloidal particles in butanol ash with tetrabutoxytitanium and tetraethoxysilane, as well as the physicochemical processes leading to the strengthening of the spherical agglomerates obtained using an anion exchanger with a gel structure, have been determined. Electrophoresis, small-angle X-ray scattering, and viscometry were used to demonstrate the presence in the sol of positively charged colloidal particles of lenticular and cylindrical shape, whose size, when the sol is stabilised, reaches 53 Å. The absorption of the sol by the anion exchanger in vanadium form is due to the equalisation of the osmotic pressure in the anion exchanger/sol system. Spherical composites with a diameter of 300 µm were obtained. It was shown by X-ray diffraction that the composites consist of V2O5 with an orthorhombic structure, TiO2 with an anatase structure, and amorphous silicon dioxide. The interaction at the interface between the phases of V2O5 with TiO2 and SiO2, which leads to the strengthening of the sphere of the V2O5/TiO2–SiO2 composite, has been demonstrated by IR and Raman spectroscopy. The results obtained can be used for the synthesis of MxOy/TiO2–SiO2 oxide composites with spherical agglomerates.

Machine learning force field for thermal oxidation of silicon.

Looking back at seven decades of highly extensive application in the semiconductor industry, silicon and its native oxide SiO2 are still at the heart of several technological developments. Recently, the fabrication of ultra-thin oxide layers has become essential for keeping up with trends in the down-scaling of nanoelectronic devices and for the realization of novel device technologies. With this comes a need for better understanding of the atomic configuration at the Si/SiO2 interface. Classical force fields offer flexible application and relatively low computational costs, however, suffer from limited accuracy. Ab initio methods give much better results but are extremely costly. Machine learning force fields (MLFF) offer the possibility to combine the benefits of both worlds. We train a MLFF for the simulation of the dry thermal oxidation process of a Si substrate. The training data are generated by density functional theory calculations. The obtained structures are in line with abinitio simulations and with experimental observations. Compared to a classical force field, the most recent reactive force field, the resulting configurations are vastly improved. Our potential is publicly available in an open-access repository.

Geopolymers made using organic bases. Part III: Cast magnesium, yttrium, and zinc aluminosilicate and silicate ceramics

AbstractIt was shown in Part II of this series of articles that geopolymers synthesized with organic bases could be used as precursors to mullite and mullite + glass composites. A natural next step is to determine whether it is possible to synthesize materials outside the Al2O3·SiO2 and alkali oxide·Al2O3·SiO2 phase systems. Hence, the focus of this study was the use of geopolymer‐like processing to make preceramic bodies with magnesium, yttrium, and zinc aluminosilicate and silicate compositions. These preceramics were successfully fired into monolithic bodies of cordierite, mixed yttrium and aluminum silicates, yttrium disilicate, and willemite. The synthesis of these preceramics employed a guanidine silicate solution, a synthetic oxide powder, and in some cases metakaolin to reach the oxide composition of the ceramic. All solidified within 3 days at 20°C or 50°C, depending on the composition. For the first time, this study showed that Y2O3 and ZnO can react with silicate solutions to give some Y‐O‐Si and Zn‐O‐Si bonding analogous to Al‐O‐Si bonding in geopolymers. These results suggest that other silicate compositions may be possible, such as with the rare earth oxides, which might be valuable to process like a geopolymer rather than by traditional ceramic processing. However, the ceramics made here were generally porous due to the expansion of gases within the sample that were trapped by a viscous liquid phase during firing.

Preparation and properties of Ta fiber reinforced high-entropy (Ti0.2Zr0.2Hf0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2)B2-SiC composite ceramics

High-entropy boride ceramics are expected to be widely used in aerospace, automotive turbines, and armor protection due to their advantages of high melting point, high hardness, adjustable performance, high-temperature stability, and good oxidation resistance. However, it is urgent to solve the problem of low fracture toughness before application. Therefore, in this paper, a single-phase high-purity (Ti0.2Zr0.2Hf0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2)B2 powder was prepared by boron/carbon thermal reduction method using a vacuum furnace. The effects of synthesis temperature and C content on the powder were studied. Secondly, HEB ((Ti0.2Zr0.2Hf0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2)B2) powder, SiC powder, and chopped Ta fiber were mixed uniformly, and Ta fiber toughened HEB-SiC composite ceramics were prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The effects of Ta fiber content on the phase composition, microstructure, mechanical properties, and oxidation resistance of the composite ceramics were investigated. The results show that with the increase in synthesis temperature, the HEB powder gradually dissolves, and the solid solution is completely formed at 1700 °C. As the C content increases, the oxygen content and particle size of the powder gradually decrease. Single-phase high-entropy (Ti0.2Zr0.2Hf0.2Nb0.2Ta0.2)B2 powders with high purity were prepared at 1700 °C for 1 h with 6 wt% C content. The addition of C will promote the boron/carbon thermal reduction method, reduce the oxygen content, and inhibit grain growth. With the increase of Ta fiber content, the density of HEB-SiC-Taf composite ceramics increased first and then decreased. The hardness gradually decreased, and the fracture toughness gradually increased. When the Ta fiber content was 7 vol%, the fracture toughness was the highest, reaching 5.12 ± 0.39MPa⋅m1/2, which was nearly 45 % higher than that of the composite ceramics without Ta fiber. This is because of the synergistic toughening mechanism of metal toughening and fiber toughening, such as crack deflection, crack bridging, fiber debonding, and fiber pullout, which improves the fracture toughness of the composite ceramics. With the increase in oxidation temperature, B2O3, SiO2, Ta2O5, and various metal oxides appear on the surface of HEB-SiC-Taf composite ceramics. The oxidation depth and weight gain per unit area gradually increase. When the Ta fiber content is 5 vol%, the composite ceramics exhibit the best high temperature stability and oxidation resistance. This is due to the Ta2O5 formed by the oxidation of Ta fibers, which dissolves into the B2O3 glass phase, increasing viscosity and improving high temperature stability while reducing the oxygen diffusion rate.

Wet oxidation behavior of Al-Y synergistic modified liquid phase sintered SiC

The wet oxidation behavior of LPS-SiC ceramics as well as the synergistic modification effect of Al2O3 and Y2O3 as sintering aids are investigated. The results show that SiO2 oxide scale is transformed to aluminosilicate with the addition of Al2O3, which can inhibit the crystallization of oxide layer and formation of cracks. The aluminosilicate oxide layers have low kl value close to zero, which can reduce the consumption of protective oxide layer under water-containing atmosphere. Y2O3 are mainly transformed to Y2Si2O7 to resist the diffusion of oxidative gas. However, with the increase of sintering aids content, the aluminosilicate layer with excessive viscosity limits the emission of gas generated by oxidation and causes many bubbles left in oxide scale which provided rapid channel for oxidative gas. Therefore, LPS-SiC with lower content of sintering aids has better oxidation resistance. This work can provide guidance for the component design of SiC-based ceramics and composites.

The impact of cobalt oxide additions and heat treatment on wollastonite for magnetic applications

Magnetic nanocomposite was prepared using the wet chemical precipitation approach with varying amounts of cobaltous oxide (CoO). The concentrations of CoO were 0.5, 3.5, 6.5, and 9.5 g per 100 % wollastonite composition. Samples were sintered separately at 1000 and 1200 °C. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) of the sintered parent sample revealed the formation of wollastonite CaSiO3 and larnite Ca2SiO4, as well as a minor silicon oxide SiO2 phase. In CoO-doped samples, Co-åkermanite Ca2CoSi2O7 and other phases were formed. The XRD and scanning electron microscope SEM confirm the samples' submicron and nanocrystalline microstructure. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Raman spectra (RS) of investigated samples sintered at 1000 and 1200 °C revealed their bond structure. Both analyses confirmed that incorporating CoO into CaSiO3 significantly improved its vibrational modes, reflecting structural modifications. By increasing the cobalt oxide content from 3.5 to 9.5 wt%, the samples attain the ideal paramagnetic state, as demonstrated by the magnetic hysteresis (M − H) curve, which is linearly reversible. Formation of the Ca2CoSi2O7 significantly alters the magnetic characteristics of the samples, whether through increasing the cobalt oxide concentration up to 9.5 wt% or modifying the sintering temperature. This enables the prepared nonocomposites to be suitable for novel magnetic applications.

Preparation and corrosion resistance of β-Al2O3–MgAl2O4 multiphase materials for synthesising Li-ion battery cathode materials

The sagger, primarily composed of aluminum-silicon, serves as an essential vessel in the sintering process of ternary lithium battery anode materials (LiNixCoyMn1-x-yO2, LNCM). However, the acidic oxide SiO2 in the sagger material readily reacts with Li2O in the cathode material, forming substances such as LiAlO2 or LiAlSiO4, resulting in volume expansion, which makes the sagger spalled and damaged. In this study, β-Al2O3–MgAl2O4 multiphase materials with excellent alkali resistance were prepared using the high-temperature solid-state method. The effects of anhydrous sodium carbonate content and heat treatment temperature on the properties of the composites were investigated, and the thermal shock resistance of the specimens was evaluated by the water-rapid-cooling method, as well as the LNCM corrosion resistance of the specimens was evaluated by the static crucible method. The results showed that the overall performance of the specimens was the best at a anhydrous sodium carbonate content of 6 wt%, with a compressive strength of 57.50 MPa and a flexural strength of 42.49 MPa after firing at 1600 °C for 4 h. The strength retention of the specimens was 33.21 % after one thermal shock at a thermal shock temperature of 900 °C. The specimens showed excellent resistance to erosion as there were no obvious erosion traces on the surface of the specimens after undergoing five cycles of erosion.

Investigating the dielectric characteristics, electrical conduction mechanisms, morphology, and structural features of mullite via sol-gel synthesis at low temperatures

This research explores the fabrication of mullite precursor powder utilizing the sol-gel process at low temperatures. Silicon tetraethoxide (Si(C2H5O)4) and aluminum nitrate nonahydrate (Al(NO3)3.9H2O) were employed as the sources of SiO2 and Al2O3 oxides, respectively. Various analytical techniques, such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetry (TG), dilatometry, differential thermal analysis (DTA), and X-ray powder diffractometer (XRD), were utilized to investigate the formation and crystallization of the amorphous powder. The microstructure of specimens sintered at 1600 °C for 1 h was examined utilizing scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Measurements of hardness (HV) and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) were conducted on mullite samples heated to 1600 °C and then cooled, revealing an increase in HV from 888 to 1000 HV as the sintering temperature rose from 1500 to 1600 °C. The CTE of mullite within the temperature range of 50–1300 °C was determined as 5.23 × 10−6/°C. Additionally, the dielectric and electrical characterization of mullite was analyzed utilizing complex impedance spectroscopy at a frequency of 0.1–106 Hz and conductivity measurements over a temperature range of 40–400 °C. The real and imaginary parts of the dielectric permittivity exhibited frequency-dependent and temperature-dependent behaviors. Significantly, the observed variations in the imaginary component of the modulus and impedance maximum frequency point to a relaxation process that is not Debye-type, with calculated activation energies (Ea) consistent across different methods.

Facile Synthesis of Novel Magnetic Janus Graphene Oxide for Efficient and Recyclable Demulsification of Crude Oil-in-Water Emulsion.

Nanoparticles have been widely applied to treat emulsion-containing wastewater in the form of chemical demulsifiers, such as SiO2, Fe3O4, and graphene oxide (GO). Owing to their asymmetric structures and selective adsorption, Janus nanoparticles show greater application potential in many fields. In the present work, the novel magnetic Janus graphene oxide (MJGO) nanoparticle was successfully prepared by grafting magnetic Fe3O4 to the surface of the JGO, and its demulsifying ability to treat a crude oil-in-water emulsion was evaluated. The MJGO structure and its magnetic intensity were verified by Fourier-transform infrared spectra (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and magnetization saturation (MS) tests. Compared with GO and JGO, MJGO displayed the superior efficiency (>96%) to demulsify the crude oil-in-water emulsion, which can be attributed to the reduced electrostatic repulsion between MJGO and the emulsion droplets. Furthermore, the effects of pH and temperature on the demulsification performance of MJGO were also studied. Lastly, the recyclability of MJGO largely reduced the cost of demulsifiers in separating crude oil and water. The current research presents an efficient and recyclable demulsifier, which provides a new perspective for the structural design of nanomaterials and their application in the field of demulsification.

Ablation behavior of Y2O3 modified HfC-based coatings for carbon/carbon composites above 2200°C

To improve the ablation resistance of C/C composites, Y2O3 with different contents modified HfC-MoSi2 multi-phase coating was prepared by supersonic atmospheric plasma spraying. The microstructural and phase compositional evolution of as-prepared coating was studied both before and after ablation. The effect of Y2O3 content on the ablation resistance and behavior of the coating was investigated in detail. The results showed that the incorporation of Y2O3 enhances the high-temperature stability of SiO2 oxide films and suppresses their volatilization at elevated temperatures. Furthermore, the formation of Y2Hf2O7 and Y2Si2O7 through the reaction between Y2O3, HfO2 and SiO2 promotes the development of a compact oxide scale, effectively inhibiting gas diffusion into the interior of the coating. Consequently, these improvements contribute to enhanced ablation resistance of the coating.

Ablation resistant C/C-HfC-ZrC-TaC-SiC composites prepared by reactive melt infiltration

Ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) modified C/C composites for extreme high-temperature environments are fascinating, the rapid introduction of UHTCs and structural temperature resistance are essential for the long-term service. Herein, C/C-HfC-ZrC-TaC-SiC composites with continuous ceramic-rich layers were designed and prepared to improve the ablation resistance. HZT441 (HfC:ZrC:TaC = 4:4:1) sample exhibited pseudo-plastic fracture with a flexural strength of 195.27 ± 11.11 MPa. After 80 s of oxyacetylene ablation (4.2 MW/m2), the mass and linear growth rates were 0.10 mg/s and 1.02 μm/s. This is attributed to the dense oxide layer, including (Hf,Zr)6Ta2O17, (Hf,Zr)O2 and SiO2, which effectively inhibits oxygen intrusion and carbon fiber damage. In addition, the thermal response behavior and stress distribution of ceramic-rich layers to C/C composites were investigated, which is contributed to provide a theoretical basis for the material design of thermal protection systems in extreme high-temperature environments.

Glass frit and method of forming electrical insulating coatings on steel substrates of film heaters

Electric film heaters (EFHs) applied on flat steel substrates show promising potential in the production of heating devices. The basis for manufacturing EHFs is heat-resistant steel, the surface of which is coated with a heat-resistant electrical insulation coating. These coatings are glass crystalline and are applied mainly by screen printing. Compared to screen printing, the electrophoretic method of coating is more productive. In this work, glass in the MgO–CaO–B2O3–SiO2 oxide system was chosen for obtaining glass crystalline coatings. The paper provides a description of the material composition and the method used to prepare a suspension for еру electrophoretic deposition of coating. The main technological parameters for forming electrophoretic coatings with a specific thickness are determined based on experimental results. Utilizing calculated data on the properties of the selected glass, the study substantiates the most rational temperature and time regime for coating firing. These conditions promote crystallization and result in the production of heat-resistant coatings with sufficient electrical insulating properties for steel substrates of EFHs.
