The structural and phase transformation of microarc oxidation (MAO) coatings on 6061 aluminum alloy at 300 ∘ C/3 MPa steam were evaluated. After 10 days steam corrosion, the weight loss of coated ...

Combinatorial screening of materials formulations followed by the scale-up of combinatorial leads has been applied for the development of high-performance coating materials for automotive applications ...

Porcelain insulator is widely used in high voltage (HV) transmission lines due to its high mechanical strength, performing well on heat and aging resistance. However, porcelain insulator string is ...

Then, the microstructure, phase composition, hardness, wear resistance and high-temperature oxidation resistance of the prepared coatings were investigated. The wear behavior of the TiNiCoCrVSi ...

The significant reduction in cutting temperature of 16% was observed with Al 2 O 3 /TiCN/TiN-WC coating, 9% with TiCN/TiN-WC coating and 5% with TiN-WC coating as compared to uncoated carbide tool. It ...
