Abstract: A coated system for containing or conveying a hydrogen-containing fluid including a hydrogen susceptible metallic substrate and a coating on the hydrogen susceptible metallic substrate. The hydrogen-containing fluid is in contact with the coating and the coating reduces or eliminates the effect of hydrogen on the hydrogen susceptible metallic substrate. A coating process for coating a hydrogen susceptible metallic substrate is also disclosed.

Abstract: A spooled arrangement and a process of producing a spooled arrangement are disclosed. The spooled arrangement includes a substrate, the substrate being metal or metallic. The substrate has an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface and the outer surface being in a furled configuration to define the spooled arrangement. The inner surface and the outer surface have a coating, the coating being an amorphous silicon coating, a silicon-oxygen-carbon-containing coating, a silicon-nitrogen-containing coating, a silicon-fluorine-carbon-containing coating, or a combination thereof. The process includes producing the spooled arrangement.

Abstract: De-icing processes and products with coatings enabling de-icing are disclosed. The de-icing process includes mechanically removing ice from a coated article having a chemical vapor deposition coating. The chemical vapor deposition coating includes silicon, carbon, and fluorine. The chemical vapor deposition coating is hydrophobic and oleophobic. The chemical vapor deposition coating remains hydrophobic and oleophobic after the mechanically removing of the ice. The product is a coated article having a chemical vapor deposition coating and ice on the chemical vapor deposition coating. The chemical vapor deposition coating includes silicon, carbon, and fluorine. The chemical vapor deposition coating is hydrophobic and oleophobic. The chemical vapor deposition coating remains hydrophobic and oleophobic in response to mechanically removing of the ice on the chemical vapor deposition coating.

Abstract: Cold thermal chemical vapor deposition coatings, articles, and processes are disclosed. Specifically, a cold thermal chemical vapor deposition process includes positioning an article, heating a precursor gas to at least a decomposition temperature of the precursor gas to produce a deposition gas, introducing the deposition gas to a coating vessel, and depositing a coating from the deposition gas onto the article within the coating vessel. The article remains at a temperature below the decomposition temperature throughout the introducing and depositing of the deposition gas. The coating on the article has a gradient formed by the depositing of the coating having no flow for a period of time. The coated article includes a thermally-sensitive substrate (the thermally-sensitive substrate capable of being modified by a temperature of 300 degrees Celsius) and a coating the thermally-sensitive substrate.

Abstract: Articles having a hydrophobically-coated region and processes of using such articles are disclosed. The article includes a substrate material and a hydrophobically-coated region on the substrate material, the hydrophobically-coated region being contacted or configured for contact with a fluid. The hydrophobically-coated region is configured to repulse the fluid from the article while the article is moving through the fluid. The process includes using the article by moving the article through the fluid wherein the hydrophobically-coated region repulses the fluid from the article.
