Depositing a layer of phosphate on its surface improves the corrosion resistance as well as other properties, such as wear resistance, adhesion etc. Accordingly, preliminary studies demonstrated that carbon steel coated with phosphate layers can be used in the manufacture of carabiners for various fields: civil engineering, oil industry etc. Whereas, to demonstrate their capacity to operate in severe conditions related to fire rescue and extinguishing operations, it is necessary to evaluate the thermal behaviour of these materials. Thus, the main goal of this paper is to study the behaviour at high temperatures of three different types of phosphate layers deposited on carbon steel surface, by STA analysis. Also, the paper aims to study the formation of different phosphate layers by determining the types of compounds formed after the completion of the phosphating process, by XRD analysis.}, type={Article}, title={XRD and STA Characterization of Phosphate Layers Deposited on the Carbon Steel Surface}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/128393/PDF/AMM-2023-3-14-Vizureanu.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2023.145459}, keywords={Zinc phosphate, Manganese phosphate, carbon steel, XRD, STA}, }
