Washing, Drying, and Ignition of Precipitates

Washing, Drying, and Ignition of Precipitates

After filtration, the precipitate is washed to remove coprecipitated impurities and any remaining mother liquor. Colloidal precipitates, such as silver chloride, are washed with an electrolyte (such as dilute nitric acid) to prevent the peptization of the precipitate. In the case of slightly soluble precipitates, the wash solution contains a common ion to reduce solubility. Lead sulfate, which is slightly soluble in water, is washed with dilute sulfuric acid. Similarly, wash solutions may be...

Background:

Titania dioxide (TiO2) coatings are crucial for various applications.
Controlling the microstructure and phase composition of TiO2 coatings is essential for performance.
Solution precursor plasma spraying (SPPS) offers a versatile method for depositing TiO2 coatings.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the microstructural characteristics and phase composition of TiO2 coatings produced via SPPS.
To explore the influence of precursor concentration, stand-off distance, and spray passes on coating properties.
To optimize SPPS parameters for tailored TiO2 coating fabrication.

Main Methods:

Utilized an ethanol-based precursor solution of titanium isopropoxide.
Employed solution precursor plasma spraying (SPPS) to deposit TiO2 coatings.
Analyzed coating microstructure using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and phase composition via X-ray diffraction (XRD).

Main Results:

Increased precursor molar concentration (0.3 M to 0.6 M) elevated the thermal behavior and phase transformation temperature.
SEM revealed nano- and submicron-sized spherical particles on the coating surfaces.
Higher concentrations resulted in dense coatings with micropores (5-8 µm), while increased spray passes yielded thicker coatings (16-20 µm).
Both anatase and rutile TiO2 phases were detected, influenced by concentration, stand-off distance, and spray passes.

Conclusions:

SPPS allows for the fabrication of TiO2 coatings with controllable microstructural and phase characteristics.
Precursor concentration and spraying parameters significantly impact coating density, thickness, and phase composition.
This research provides insights into optimizing SPPS for producing functional TiO2 coatings.
