There is disclosed a system and method for applying an amorphous NiP alloy coating on pipes and rods, particularly for use in the oil and gas industries to inhibit corrosion, In an embodiment, the method comprises applying an amorphous nickel phosphorus or NiP alloy coating to pipes and rods for use in oil and gas industries, comprising; preparing a Watt's type nickel phosphorus (NiP) plating bath solution utilizing a Watt's type nickel electrolyte containing hypophosphorous acid; maintaining the plating bath solution temperature at between 120° F. and 170° F. adjusted to regulate phosphorus content over 11%; regulating a pH level of the plating bath solution between 1.0 and 3.0 utilizing sulphuric acid; and controlling the cathode current density in the range of 10-100 amps/sq/ft. Significant cost savings may be realized by using an electroplated nickel-phosphorus alloy over regular carbon steel alloy components at sufficient thickness to be pore free replacing the use of more expensive components made of stainless steels or nickel base alloys.
摘要:
A photometric device for investigating a sample, comprises an array of radiation sources that are spaced apart from one another, and which are operable to generate radiation that differs from that generated by the other radiation sources in the array. The device includes a lens arrangement for focusing the radiation at a region of space where a sample may be located for example by means of a sample holder, and at least one detector for receiving radiation from the region of space. Preferably, a number of detectors are employed that are spaced apart from one another, and especially about an axis of the device, so that one radiation detector can detect radiation transmitted by the sample and the other detectors can detect radiation scattered by it. The radiation sources may be time division multiplexed so that in each time slot the detectors receive radiation originating from each radiation source. In an alternative embodiment, the radiation from the region of space may be transmitted to the sample via a beam homogeniser, for example an optical waveguide in the form of an optical fibre, which may be used to reduce or remove speckle where laser diodes are employed as the radiation sources. The device may be used to determine the particle size distribution of particles in a sample by a method employing Bayesian inference.
