This work gives a review on published results on the corrosion behavior of hard coatings
deposited on steel substrates by mainly physical vapor deposition (PVD) or in some cases …

Proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is a promising technology to be
incorporated in the production of green hydrogen, but one of its limitation to market …

Hard coatings play a continuously increasing role in the field of tribology as well as for
decorative applications. In both areas they are often exposed to corrosive environments …

Since the introduction of the term “nanolaminate” in the mid-1990s, considerable research
activities on metallic/ceramic nanolaminates (MCN) have been conducted. Incorporating …

The effect of Ti interlayers on the corrosion resistance of TiN PVD coatings is investigated.
The coatings were deposited using direct current magnetron sputtering (DCMS) and high …

Abstract Ti (Titanium), TiN (Titanium Nitride) and Ti/TiN bilayers were deposited on stainless
steel (AISI 316L) using unbalanced magnetron sputtering process. Multilayered coatings …

The promising mechanical, physical and chemical properties of nano-scale metal/ceramic
multilayers (MCMs) are of high interest for extreme environment applications. Understanding …

Ti/TiN-multilayered films were prepared on surgical AISI316L stainless steel by arc ion
plating. The crystallographic orientation and surface morphology were studied using XRD …

Multilayered and nanostructured coatings of Ti based alloys (oxides and nitrides) are
elaborated and tested for increasing protective properties such as corrosion and wear …

In order to develop a novel kind of antibacterial Cu-containing TiN film with good corrosion
resistance, impressive mechanical properties, and low cytotoxicity, three differently designed …
