System for evaluating effects of immersion in molten copper chloride salts on corrosion resistant coatings

Hydrogen, as one of the best alternative energy carrier candidates, is easier to sustain than fossil fuel. Hydrogen demand has significantly increased as a clean energy carrier. The Cu-Cl cycle is one of the capable thermochemical cycles which is supposed to develop hydrogen production. Since this cycle has some high temperature stages, a study on these parts is essential to realize the entirety of the cycle. This research is about designing a system to evaluate candidate coatings following an immersion test in molten CuCl at 500°C for a prolonged time. Medium carbon steel was selected as the base metal. There were six types of combination coatings applied to evaluate the corrosion resistance of the generated coatings during the molten CuCl exposure…
