(author), Terryn, H.A. (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author)The bonding properties of zirconium- and titanium-based conversion coatings were evaluated using model conversion solutions of H<sub>2</sub>ZrF<sub>6</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>TiF<sub>6</sub> with addition of various organic additives (PAA, PVA, PVP). Macroscopic testing techniques such as contact angle and pull-off adhesion measurements were...journal article 2020

Fockaert, L.I. (author), Pletincx, S. (author), Boelen, B. (author), Hauffman, T. (author), Terryn, H.A. (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author)The effect of zirconium-based conversion of thermally vaporized zinc, aluminium and magnesium on the chemisorption of dimethylsuccinate was studied using attenuated total reflection – Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. Two competing chemisorption mechanisms contribute to...journal article 2020

Kosari, A. (author), Tichelaar, F.D. (author), Visser, P. (author), Zandbergen, H.W. (author), Terryn, H.A. (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author)Lithium leaching coatings have recently been developed as eco-friendly active corrosion protection technology for aerospace aluminium alloys (AAs) by the formation of a conversion layer at coating defects. While general conversion layer formation characteristics were studied and reported before, here we study the local layer formation process...journal article 2021
