The result shows that the coating silicanized layer consisting of FeSi, Fe2SiO4, FeSiO3 and SiO2 phase was successfully formed on the mild steel after subjecting to heat treatment process of 1000 °C for 4 hours. This layer of �500μm thickness and also established that higher temperature and elongated deposition/adhesion time resulted an increase in SiO2 concentration on the substrate (mild steel). ©2006-2016 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN). date: 2016 publisher: Asian Research Publishing Network official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84994318699&partnerID=40&md5=34feb78afd3bda0bdf080f5ac78f9cd3 full_text_status: none publication: ARPN Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences volume: 11 number: 20 pagerange: 12005-12010 refereed: TRUE issn: 18196608 citation: Fmy, Y. and Othman, M.
