US President recently decided to invoke a Cold War-era defense law to encourage domestic chromium oxide.
Chromium oxide (Cr2O3) is a kind of dark green powder with metallic luster and belongs to hexagonal or amorphous crystal. Cr2O3 melting point is 2265℃ ~ 2435℃ and Cr2O3 density is 5.2g/cm3. It is a neutral oxide.
Chromium oxide has good spraying process performance, its spraying process specification is wide, it is less sensitive to overheating during spraying, and the coating is not easy to crack when local overheating occurs. The spray coating is very dense and has high bonding strength with the substrate, so it is easy to be machined such as grinding and polishing.
However, the deposition efficiency of pure chromium oxide powder is low, which will increase the cost of the coating. The chromium oxide coating prepared by flame spraying or plasma spraying is dense and insoluble in acid, alkali and alcohol. After proper sealing treatment, the coating can be used in the environment with chemical corrosion medium.
Cr2O3 coatings properties
The chemical properties of plasma sprayed chromium oxide coating are very stable, insoluble in acid, alkali, salt and various solvents, excellent corrosion resistance to medium impregnation, high temperature erosion resistance to corrosive gases such as H2S and SO2, stable to atmosphere, fresh water, sea water and light, but soluble in hot sodium bromide solution. Chromium oxide coating has good hydrophilicity and a uniform water film is formed on the surface of the coating.
What are Cr2O3 coatings used for?
Cr2O3 coatings can be used as abrasive wear resistant coating, hard surface wear and erosion wear coating below 540℃, cavitation wear resistant coating, corrosion wear resistant coating for parts used in chemical media below 250℃ (need to be properly sealed), such as pistons, plungers, chemical machinery shafts, pump seals, wear-resistant rings, slide valves, cylinder linings, exhaust fans, polishing and polishing fixtures, etc. Fiber wear-resistant coating, such as guide wheel, friction wheel, roller roller of chemical fiber spinning machine, magnetic conductive and wear-resistant coating, such as tape recorder head, etc.
The sprayed Cr2O coating is dark dark green with strong covering ability and high and stable thermal emissivity in a wide range of off-line wavelengths. Commonly used in infrared radiation coating (such as electric heating pipe coating), high temperature magnetic conductive wear-resistant coating, etc.

New Delhi: India's Oil Ministry recently conveyed its intention to five national oil companies including Indian Oil Corp and Bharat Petroleum Resources LTD to assess the possibility of buying shares in Russian oil projects sold by European and American oil majors.
Bp announced it would give up its 19.75% stake in Rosneft, the Russian oil company. ExxonMobil said on March 1 that it would exit about $4 billion in assets and terminate all of its Russian operations, including the Sakhalin-1 project in Russia's far East.
India's oil ministry has asked the overseas investment arm of India's Oil and Gas Corporation to consider buying ExxonMobil's 30 percent stake in the Sakhalin 1 project in Russia's far East. ExxonMobil is the operator of the project and Indian companies already have a 20 percent stake in the project.
Because of the ever-changing international situation, the supply and prices of international bulk chromium oxide are still very uncertain.
