The surface integrity of bearing steel materials largely determines the life of mechanical
parts like bearings and gears. Optimizing the process parameters or applying surface …

In this paper, a 16 µm CrN/CrAlN multilayer coating is prepared on the titanium alloy surface
via arc ion plating. Since titanium alloys are susceptible to wear in a high-temperature …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) can be considered one of the frontline coating materials for high-
speed cutting tools owing to both abrasion resistance and solid lubricant properties …

In this paper, the microstructure evolution, mechanical properties, sand erosion
performance, and failure mechanism of multilayer TiN/Ti coatings deposited at different …

Nanodiamond composite (NDC) films, with a notable hardness of 65 GPa and a substantial
thickness of 10 µm, were successfully fabricated on unheated WC− Co substrates using …

To improve the mechanical and tribological properties of hydrogen-containing diamond-like
(H-DLC) films under typical space environment—atomic oxygen (AO) erosion, H-DLC films …

In this study, a combination of conventional plasma nitriding and cathodic cage plasma
deposition (CCPD) at different temperatures (400 and 450° C) is implemented to enhance …

While numerous strategies have been developed to enhance the high-temperature
performance of amorphous carbon films, challenges persist regarding high coefficients of …

X80 pipeline steel is crucial for oil and gas pipelines. Friction between particulate matter and
the inner wall causes abrasive wear during transport, while corrosive environments further …
