The wear and corrosion issues commonly occurring in coal production and processing and
applications of advanced ceramics and coatings to combat these issues are reviewed. The …

Metallic coatings based on cobalt and nickel are promising for elongating the life span of
machine components operated in harsh environments. However, reports regarding the …

The dynamic impact test is a tool for investigating the impact wear of the coated samples. In
the dynamic impact test, the indenter successively impacts the same place of the sample …

The impact resistance of coating/substrate systems is still lacking comprehensive
understanding, especially for the thermal spray of wear-resistant coatings for coated …

A number of industrial applications today require thermally sprayed coatings that exhibit
good adhesion, high temperature and chemical resistance, and can withstand particle …

This paper presents a study on thermally sprayed coatings. Coatings produced by high-
velocity oxygen–fuel spraying HVOF and plasma spraying deposited on the A03590 …

Repeated contact with high loads can cause damage to the surface of the DLC films and
thus affect their fatigue strength. This study systematically investigates the contact fatigue …

To increase the tool life of fine blanking punches, this work investigates a combined solution
approach consisting of increasing the mechanical strength of the substrate material by shot …

Steam turbine blades are subjected to wear because of the continuous exposure to high
pressure and temperature of the steam. Excessive wear in the blades adversely affects the …

Present investigation has been carried out with the aim of determining the sliding wear
behaviour of APS (atmospheric plasma spray) chromium carbide nichrome (Cr3C2-NiCr) …
