Protection of the working units of agricultural machinery during storage

Abstract

During the usage and storage agricultural machinery are corrosion fracture. There are many known protective materials to protect against corrosion, which are often expensive. The authors offer a technology of obtaining an anticorrosive material – bituminous composition, that will solve a number of problems: the waste materials recycling and the high cost, lack of protective materials. The bench tests were conducted after determining the optimal content of the bituminous composition. During the year, the known and available protective materials , as well as the newly formed bituminous composition, exposed to atmospheric agents, as provided in the combined storage and in the open air. As a result of a comprehensive evaluation of the protective properties of anti-corrosion materials by method of application on the work surface and the economic feasibility has been proposed a technology of bituminous composition, the protective properties of which were the highest, at the lowest cost .
