THE OVERALL GOAL OF THE PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP AND EVALUATE NOVEL OXIDATION- AND EROSION-RESISTANT TRIBALOY-BASED COATINGS MADE VIA A SCALABLE LOW-COST ELECTRO-CODEPOSITION PROCESS FOR PROTECTING CRITICAL CONCENTRATING SOLAR-THERMAL POWER (CSP) COMPONENTS. THE TEAM WILL OPTIMIZE THE TRIBALOY COATINGS ON ALLOYS RELEVANT TO THE CSP APPLICATION AND WILL EVALUATE THE COATING PERFORMANCE UNDER CONDITIONS RELEVANT TO THE STATE-OF-THE-ART CSP APPLICATIONS. THE DEVELOPED COATINGS ARE EXPECTED TO OFFER IMPROVED OXIDATION/EROSION RESISTANCE AND COMPATIBILITY WITH THE SUBSTRATE ALLOY, LEADING TO INCREASED COMPONENT LIFETIME. THE SUCCESS OF THIS RESEARCH EFFORT WILL CONTRIBUTE TO ACHIEVING LONG-TERM COST SAVINGS IN CSP TECHNOLOGIES AND SUPPORT THE SETO CSP 2030 COST GOAL FOR BASELOAD PLANTS.
