This paper develops a simple and versatile analytical method for characterizing residual stress associated with the deposition of thick, thin, single multilayer coatings. study is great importance, since generation can lead to formation significant defects in coating. To illustrate effectiveness our method, two different processes were characterized. The coatings formed are intended anti-corros...

Thermal and environmental barrier coatings are important components of current and future energy systems. Such coatings – applied to hot, metallic surfaces in combustors, heat exchanger and turbines – increase the allowable operating temperature and increase the efficiency of the energy system. Because of its low thermal conductivity and high thermal expansion yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) i...

In the present work, a low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) Ti0.17Al0.83N and state-of-the-art arc ion plating PVD-Ti1−xAlxN (x = 0.25, 0.55, 0.60, 0.67) coatings were deposited on cemented carbide substrate. The morphological, structural, electrochemical properties of LPCVD-Ti0.17Al0.83N compared. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed that...
