Abstract The CrN monolayer and CrN/AlN nano-multilayer coating were successfully
fabricated by reactive magnetron sputtering on F690 steel. The results show that CrN …

Additive manufacturing of near β-type Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloys using the laser powder bed
fusion process (LPBF) opens up new avenues to tailor the microstructure and subsequent …

CrN coating, as a hard coating, could be hopefully applied to components in sodium-cooled
fast reactor. Some studies on compatibility of metallic materials with liquid sodium have …

Use of low friction non-ferrous coatings for engine tribo-components exposed to boundary
lubrication is becoming popular in automotive industries. The excellent tribological …

CrN multilayer coatings are possible replacements for hard chromium because of their good
mechanical and chemical properties. This paper focuses on X-ray photoelectron …

CrAlN is a good candidate as an alternative to conventional CrN coatings especially for high
temperature oxidation-resistance applications. Different CrAlN coatings were deposited on …

In boundary lubrication, formation of tribofilms and subsequent friction and wear properties
are strongly influenced by lubricant affinity to the lubricating surfaces. Ionic liquids (ILs) …

The study compares and deciphers the differences in tribological performance of CrN
coatings after incorporation of Cu moiety, ie CrCuN coatings, prepared using DC magnetron …

In the case of metallic surfaces, the action of extreme-pressure (EP) and anti-wear (AW)
additives is well understood and has been described in detail. However, this is not the case …

This work aims to show the characterisation of Cr–V–N coatings, with the varied amounts of
Cr and V. CrN, VN and Cr–V–N coatings were deposited onto silicon and XC100 steel …
