Record 2 2006-10-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Deterioration of Metals
  • Chemistry
DEF

An abrasive wear accompanied by corrosion.

CONT

Fretting or friction corrosion occurs when vibration or in-flight loads causes oscillatory movement between faying surfaces. A form of chemical corrosion will occur if incompatible surface coatings come in contact; for example methyl ethyl ketone [used as a solvent in a number of fabric cements] will attack zinc chromate metal primers leaving the metal open to corrosion under the fabric.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Altération des métaux
  • Chimie
DEF

Phénomène résultant de l'action conjuguée de la corrosion et de l'usure, cette usure étant provoquée par un mouvement oscillatoire de glissement de deux surfaces en contact.

CONT

Corrosion par matage [...]. -Lorsque deux pièces forment un couple mécanique de rotation ou de roulement, on constate, dans certains cas, une corrosion localisée dont la trace correspond à l'empreinte d'une pièce sur l'autre (arbre sur palier, billes ou aiguilles sur chemins de roulement, etc.) [...] Les remèdes sont les suivants: [...] pour l'ensemble on évitera les vibrations.

OBS

Le mouvement qui engendre l'usure est uniquement oscillatoire.

Record 3 1995-09-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Surface Treatment of Metals
DEF

Chemical or electrochemical process of producing a coating(conversion coating) consisting of a compound of the surface metal. Conversion coatings frequently used are, for example, chromate films on zinc and cadmium, or oxide and phosphate coatings on steel.

OBS

Anodizing of aluminium and magnesium, while satisfying this definition, is not normally called a conversion treatment.

OBS

Term and definition standardized by ISO.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Traitements de surface des métaux
DEF

Procédé chimique ou électrochimique de formation d'une couche superficielle (couche de conversion) comprenant un composé du métal de la surface. Des couches de conversion utilisées fréquemment sont, par exemple, les films de chromate sur zinc et cadmium ou les couches d'oxyde et de phosphate sur acier.

OBS

L'anodisation de l'aluminium et du magnésium, bien que répondant à cette définition, n'est pas normalement appelée «traitement de conversion».

OBS

Terme et définition normalisés par l'ISO.
