Mo40 low-alloy steels are mostly used to produce industrial components such as crane wheels which are exposed to abrasive wear. However, during working conditions, their wear resistance is reduced after a while due to its low hardness. With increasing abrasive wear, the dimensions of components decrease and they need to be repaired for surface modification. In this regard, hard overlay coatings...

ni-w coatings, compared to pure nanocrystalline ni, exhibit higher hardness and wear resistance. in some cases, these coatings are considered as environmental friendly alternatives for hard chromium coating. till now, most of ni-w coatings have been produced by direct current electrodeposition from alkaline baths. in this study square pulse current was used for deposition of ni-w precipitates f...

The strengthening hard phases TiN/C1-xNxTi were generated by in-situ solid-gas reaction in Ni-based composite coatings prepared using a plasma spray welding process to reinforce the wear resistance of the coatings. The microstructures and properties of the coatings were investigated. The results showed that the coatings mainly consisted of phases such as TiN, C1-xNxTi, TiC, etc. A small amount ...

Last 2 to 3 decades application of PVD (physical vapour deposition) hard coatings exponentially grows. However, the use of hard, thin films in the field of machine elements is the exception rather than the rule. The main problem lies in the relatively high contact pressure and the very complex loading of machine components, which demand a hard resistance surface and a tough core. In seminar it ...

Coatings of specific materials in few atoms of thickness to several microns on certain substrate is the basic need of society and they attend the regular attention of scientific community working in different domains; decorative and protective coatings, transparent and insulating coatings, coating medical implants and surgical instruments, coatings for drug delivery and security purposes, ultra...
