Abstract-- Power plant consists of systems that effect on each
other. The main two cycles in power plant are Water – Steam
and Air – Gas cycles. Flue gas duct is used in air-gas cycle to
release the flue gas from the furnace to the atmosphere. The
cracks and holes occur in the gas duct because of corrosion,
which resulted in allowing the air ingress into the duct and
consequently cause a chemical reaction with flue gas, this
reaction will create a sulfuric acid layer and hence accumulate
on the internal surfaces of the duct and transfer to Induced
Draft Fan (IDF). The main objective of this work is to introduce
a composite layer to Corten Steel (the material from which the
gas duct made) to improve a corrosion resistance. This coating
layer consists from serval nanoparticles (ZnO, ZrO2, SiO2 and
NiO) as reinforcement phase with epoxy resins matrix. The
surface roughness profiles of Nano-epoxy composite coating
show an improvement in surface roughness compared to the
original Corten Steel without coating. Furthermore, XRF
analysis shows the Nano-epoxy composite coating element and
the increment of element that improve corrosion resistance.

1. INTRODUCTION
Air gas cycle in steam power plant starts from
sucking the air from atmosphere by means of Forced Draft
Fan (FDF) to supply boiler furnace with enough air for
combustion. Then air flows through two stages before reach the boiler. The first stage is Steam Coil Air Preheater
(SCAPH), it is used to raise the air temperature by make the
air flows through steam coil and the second stage is Air
Preheater, it is also used to raise the air temperature by
exchange the heat between air and flue gas, as shown in
Figure 1. The flue gas duct is made from Corten Steel with 6
mm thickness and materials used for insulation are minerals
wool 250 mm with density 100 kg/m3 and covered by
aluminum sheet 1.3 mm.

To release the flue gas by using Induced Draft Fan
(IDF) connected to boiler by duct. This duct get damaged in
a certain area causes cracks and holes, due to corrosion, these
damages let the air enter inside the duct and react with the
flue gas, which causes the composition of sulfuric acid (SOx)
and ash causing corrosion and starts to accumulate on the
internal surface of duct and on IDF, as shown in Figure 2.
Fig. 2. Cracks and corrosion as found on internal surface of flue gas duct
The objective of this work is to study the
improvement of the properties of the flue gas duct's material
by using the composite material with different types of Nano-
Particles with resins epoxy as a coating by applying different
characterization analysis such as, Surface Roughness, XRF
and XRD.
A brief literature review of failure analysis of flue
gas duct and other aspects of metal protection are introduced.
Z.B. Wang, [1] carried out the study of the Performance of
corrosion protection for Nano-SiO2/Epoxy Composite
Coatings in Acidic Desulfurized Flue Gas Condensates. A
series of nano-SiO2/epoxy composite coatings were
designed to improve both the acid resistance and thermos
resistance by considering the addition order of the surface-
modified nano-SiO2 and the sealing effect on the micro holes.
Takehide AIGA, [2] introduced a study of advanced anticorrosion coating technologies in steelworks
maintenance. Corrosive environment such as marine
environment and corrosive gas environment investigate these
corrosive conditions and apply advanced anti-corrosion
coating technologies, aiming to minimize the LCC (Life Cycle Cost) of industrial facilities. Evaluation methods of the
coating performance and application technologies such as
Coating Film Diagnosis Technology and Anticorrosion
Coating Technologies are introduced.
Tuan Anh Nguyen, [3] performed the study of the
Effect of Nanoparticles on the Thermal and Mechanical
Properties of Epoxy Coatings. Epoxy coatings incorporated
with several nanoparticles, such as nano-SiO2, nano-Fe2O3,
nano- clay and nano-TiO2, were synthesized on the surface
of steel substrates by solvent sonication and room
temperature curing of fully mixed epoxy slurry.
2. EXPERIMENTAL WORK
2.1 Material
Corten steel, epoxy, and nanoparticles are materials
used in the experimental work. Corten steel are weather
resistant steel grades optimized through their alloying
elements copper, chromium, nickel and phosphorus for a variety of environments and purposes. The main properties of
this type of steel are corrosion resistant [4].
Belzona 1391T is a 2-part ceramic filled epoxy coating which provides erosion and corrosion resistance
to high temperature equipment operating under immersion up
to 120°C. It offers excellent resistance to a wide range of
aqueous solutions, hydrocarbons and process chemicals, [5].
Four types of Nanoparticles are used in this work
are: Zinc Oxide (ZnO, 99%, 35-45 nm), Zirconium Oxide
Nanoparticles (ZrO2, 99+%, 40 nm), Silicon Dioxide
Nanoparticles (SiO2, 99+%, 20-30 nm) and Nickel Oxide
Nanoparticles (NiO, 99%, 10-20 nm), [6].
2.2 Preparation of Composite Coatings
Matrices of all prepared composite coatings is epoxy
resins (Type 1391T from BELZONA Co.) and the
reinforcement are four types of nanoparticles. The epoxy
mixed with different ratios of the nanoparticles as shown in
Table I.

2.3 Experimental Tests
In this section, Surface Roughness, XRF and XRD
test were performed on all samples. Stylus based technique
used to find surface roughness profile, a stylus based
equipment by Taylor Hobson, tracks small changes in surface
height, and a skid that follows large changes in surface
height. The use of both of them together reduces the effects
of non-flat surfaces on the surface roughness measurement.
X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is to analysis the emission of
characteristic "secondary" (or fluorescent) X-rays from a
material that has been excited by being bombarded with high-
energy X-rays or gamma rays. The DELTA Professional by
OLYMPUS device (used in this experiment), use new X-act Count Technology.
3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
3.1 Surface Roughness Profiles
As per surface roughness profile for epoxy
composite coating (EPX) and nano-epoxy composite
coatings (EZn, EZr, ESi and ENi) samples and compared to
the original corten steel sample (CS1), the average roughness
Ra shows high improve (Ra value decrease) at the low
intensity of nanoparticles at 2 % in coating mixture, as shown
in Figure 5, on other hand when the concentrations
percentages of nanoparticles increment the average
roughness Ra values. However, most Nano-epoxy composite
coating recorded good improvement of surface roughness.

4. CONCLUSION
Four types of Nano-Epoxy composite coatings were
successfully prepared on Corten steel. These nano-epoxy composite coatings show significant improvements in
corrosion resistance obtained by measuring the surface
roughness and the XRF test, which have been conducted in
order to investigate the surface compositions for several
coating layers. According to the above mentioned test results.
It has been revealed that the surface roughness profile at 2%
concentration shows a dramatic improvements in the all four
types of nano-epoxy composite coatings (EZn, EZr, ESi and
ENi), which is equivalent to 0.28 µm for EZn2, 0.91 µm for
EZR2, 0.2 µm for ESi2 and 0.28 µm for ENi2, Compared to
the original Corten steel (1.96 µm). From improvement
percentage perspectives, around 85% improvement in the
surface roughness in EZn2, 53% in EZr2, 89% in ESi2 and
85% in ENi2. On the other hand, increasing the Nanoparticles
intensity in the composite coating will result in increasing the
surface roughness and vice-versa.
In terms of the XRF and XRD, it has been proved
that the coating layer creates a barrier layer which reduced
the Fe intensity in the complete martial (Corten Steel)
composition, which means insulating the steel from being
exposed to the surrounding atmosphere, hence resulting in prolonging the material life span and reducing the corrosion
as well. From the test results, adding the Nanoparticles to the
composite coating resulted in increasing the intensity
percentage of the Zn, Ni and Ti in the overall material
composition e.g. in ENi2, the Ni intensity percentage
increased to 44% and Ti to 38 % compared to zero% in the
original Corten steel. These increase in those valuable
minerals will improve the resistance to the corrosion and will
strengthen the coating layer.
