Optimization and Degradation Testing of Functional Coatings for Porous Metal Filters

Mott Corporation would like to understand the characteristics of several different coatings that directly impact the performance in their applications. The degree of hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity imparted by each coating type, resistance to mechanical wear, chemical exposure, and influence of substrate alloy type and pore size/morphology are all contributing factors. The correlation between these coating variables and the underlying porous substrates is not well documented.
