Dear Veanuga Ganapathy,

Procedure in means to make film is spray technique,I don't know whether my answer helped you are not.

Vadim Verlotski

Dear Veanuga,

Unfortunately, there are no corrosion protection coatings based on ZrO2 (no matter with which method produced). Select better another topic for research.

HI Helen Kas

In my study I'm planning to using dipping coating method through sol-gel technique using zirconium oxide

Hi Vadim Verlotski

There is studies regarding zirconium oxide as coating and below i have attached one of the studies regarding coating of zirconium oxide on stainless steel using sol-gel technique. Anyhow only limited studies is regarding coating of zirconium oxide in aluminium alloy.

Ya you can try that also.
