Advances In Coatings Technologies For Corrosion And Wear Resistant Coatings

This collection of papers is from the 1995 TMS Annual Meeting and Exhibition held in Las Vegas, Nevada, February 12-16, 1995. It discusses new developments in environmentally-benign coatings practice, processing and materials, particularly in the area of thin film materials. Materials covered include replacements for electrolytic chrome, organic coatings for corrosion inhibition, diamond-like materials, nitrides and carbides. An emphasis is placed on environmentally-sound processing, and on new developments in existing technologies, such as sol-gel thermal spray and sputter deposition.

Corrosion is a significant issue in many industrial fields. Among other strategies, coatings are by far the most important technology for corrosion protection of metallic surfaces. The Special Issue “Advanced Coatings for Corrosion Protection” has been launched as a means to present recent developments in any type of advanced coating for corrosion protection. This book compiles 15 contributions on metallic, inorganic, polymeric and nanoparticle enhanced coatings that provide corrosion protection as well as other functionalities.

Today, new developments in coatings and surface engineering are being increasingly driven by more stringent environmental regulations and the need to increase lifetimes of critical components and materials. This proceedings volume is enhanced by numerous invited papers that provide on excellent review on new and emerging topical areas and coating applications. Subjects discussed include corrosion and wear-resistant coatings, biosystems, biocompatibility, and directed energy beam (ion/laser/electron) processes.

Handbook of Advanced Ceramic Coatings: Fundamentals, Manufacturing and Classification introduces ceramic coating materials, methods of fabrication, characterizations, the interaction between fillers, reinforcers, and environmental impact, and the functional classification of ceramic coatings. The book is one of four volumes that together provide a comprehensive resource in the field of Advanced Ceramic Coatings, also including titles covering energy, biomedical and emerging applications. These books will be extremely useful for academic and industrial researchers and practicing engineers who need to find reliable and up-to-date information about recent progresses and new developments in the field of advanced ceramic coatings. Smart ceramic coatings containing multifunctional components are now finding application in transportation and automotive industries, in electronics, and energy sectors, in aerospace and defense, and in industrial goods and healthcare. Their wide application and stability in harsh environments are only possible due to the stability of the inorganic components used. Ceramic coatings are typically silicon nitride, chromia, hafnia, alumina, alumina-magnesia, silica, silicon carbide, titania, and zirconia-based compositions. The increased demand for these materials and their application in energy, transportation, and the automotive industry, are considered, to be the main drivers. Comprehensively covers the production, characterization and properties of advanced ceramic coatings Features the latest manufacturing processes Covers basic principles of surface chemistry, along with the fundamentals of ceramic materials and engineering Features the latest progress and recent technological developments Discusses basic science relevant to both the materials and preparation methods

Frontiers of Thin Film Technology, Volume 28 focuses on recent developments in those technologies that are critical to the successful growth, fabrication, and characterization of newly emerging solid-state thin film device architectures. Volume 28 is a condensed sampler of the Handbook for use by professional scientists, engineers, and students involved in the materials, design, fabrication, diagnostics, and measurement aspects of these important new devices.

This collection of peer-reviewed papers covers the subject areas of surface engineering/coatings, modeling, analysis and simulation of manufacturing processes, materials processing technology, mechanical behavior and fracture, computer-aided materials design, tooling testing and evaluation of materials, thermal engineering theory and applications, CAM/CAE, high-speed/precision machining and inspection technology, micro-machining technology, laser processing technology, bionic mechanisms and bio-manufacturing, digital manufacture and management, and other related topics. The work thus provides a thorough and up-to-date coverage of the topics. Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).

The present volume contains sixteen contributed papers from the symposium, with topics including advanced coating processing, advanced coating for wear, corrosion, and oxidation resistance, and thermal and mechanical properties, highlighting the state-of-the-art ceramic coatings technologies for various critical engineering applications.

This book addresses the recent trends in high-temperature coatings that are used to provide oxidation and wear resistance to metallic/ceramic components in extreme environments. Ceramics, intermetallics, organosilicon polymers, cermets, and other materials with great thermal stability have long been recognized for these applications. This book introduces the state of the art in coating materials and processes for high-temperature environments and identifies areas for improvement in materials selection, performance upgrades, design considerations, and manufacturing methods. The book covers a variety of high-temperature coatings prepared through various synthesis processes such as thermal spraying, physical vapor deposition, electrodeposition, and sol–gel methods. It covers corrosion/oxidation, phase stability, and thermal and mechanical behavior of high-temperature coating materials having greater thermal stability. With contributions from international researchers active in the field, this edited book features the most recent and up-to-date literature references for a broad readership consisting of academic and industrial professionals. It is suitable for graduate students as well as scientists and engineers working in the area of anti-corrosion and anti-wear resistant high-temperature coatings for industrial applications.
