The present invention relates to metals or metal alloys comprising a protective silicate glass-like coating, and methods for coating the metals or metal alloys. The methods comprise removal of any existing oxide layer from the metal or metal alloy, formation of a new oxide layer on the metal or metal alloy using chemical passivation or exposure to a gaseous oxidising environment, coating the oxidised metal or metal alloy with an aqueous silicate solution, and curing the coating.

A method for producing a diaphragm for an ultrasonic sensor. In the method, a diaphragm body made of metal material is first provided. Next, an external surface region of the diaphragm body is degreased. The external surface region of the diaphragm body is then pickled. To pre-activate the subsequently applied second passivation layer, a first passivation layer is also deposited on the external surface region as a first layer.

A neutralizer, destainer/descaling, and passivating composition and methods of using the same on metal surfaces are disclosed. The compositions are particularly well suited for the treatment of health care surfaces and other hard surfaces in need of treatment. In particular, the neutralizer, destainer/descaling, and passivating composition is an acid-based composition for use in instrument reprocessing.

An aqueous synthetic acid composition is disclosed for use in oil industry activities, the composition comprising: lysine and hydrogen chloride in a molar ratio ranging from 1 to 1:12.5, preferably from more than 1:5 to 1:8.5. The composition can also further comprise a metal iodide or iodate; an alcohol or derivative thereof. The composition demonstrates advantageous properties over known synthetic acids at temperatures above 90° C. The composition is useful in various oil and gas industry operations. Preferred embodiments of the composition provide substantial advantages in matrix acidizing by increasing the effectiveness of wormholing as compared to conventional mineral acids such as HCl.
