    Abstract: A corrosion monitoring system includes at least one corrosion sensor. The corrosion sensor includes a metallic plug having at least one opening, at least one ceramic sheath in the opening of the metallic plug, and a plurality of probes. Each probe has a central portion with a predetermined cross sectional area extending from the metallic plug. The ceramic sheath electrically isolates each first end and each second end of the probes from the metallic plug and the other first ends and second ends. The probes are sized to provide a distribution of predetermined cross sectional areas of the central portions. The corrosion monitoring system also includes a resistance meter measuring an ohmic resistance for at least one of the probes and a computer determining a corrosion rate by correlating a rate of change of the ohmic resistance to the corrosion rate of the probe.

    Abstract: A coating, a coating system, and a coating method are provided. The coating includes between about 0.25-35% filler particles embedded in a chrome phosphate binder matrix comprising a balance of the coating by volume. The filler particles have a size in the range from nanosize to six microns with an aspect ratio of from 1:1 to 3:1, and include up to 100% by weight lubricious particles with a balance hard particles. The lubricious particles are selected from the group consisting of boron nitride (BN), titanium nitride (TiN), titanium oxide (TiO2), zinc (Zn), tin (Sn), oxides of zinc and tin, and combinations thereof. The hard particles are selected from the group consisting of chromium carbide (CrC), tungsten carbide (WC), silicon (Si), aluminum (Al), oxides or nitrides of silicon and aluminum, and combinations thereof. A green slurry coating includes an evaporable solvent mixed with the filler particles and chrome phosphate binder matrix.
