Electroless nickel‑boron coatings have been used in various industrial sectors for more than
40 years due to their excellent mechanical and tribological properties, that exceed those of …

One-dimensional carbon nanotubes and two-dimensional graphene nanosheets with
unique electrical, mechanical and thermal properties are attractive reinforcements for …

Electroless coating is different from the conventional electrolytic coating as the former does
not require any electricity for its operation. The advantages include uniform coating and also …

The surface properties of nanoparticles have decisive influence on their interaction with
biological barriers (ie, living cells), being the concentration and type of surfactant factors to …

The structure of electroless nickel–boron with a boron content around 5wt.% was
investigated in the as deposited and heat treated states by X-ray diffraction and by …

Nanocrystalline electroless nickel-boron deposits were synthesized on mild steel (St-37
ASTM A36) substrates and submitted to heat treatment under non-reactive atmosphere to …

Homogeneous nickel-phosphorus-silica (Ni-P-SiO 2) nanocomposite coatings were
prepared on low carbon steel alloy surfaces by a new process. This method was developed …

In this paper, the effects of two different types of surfactants on the properties of Ni–P–TiO 2
coating on low carbon steel substrate were investigated. Sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) …

Untethered microswimmers have been recently proposed as possible candidates for a
wealth of biomedical and environmental applications. In view of their translation from …

Quality and homogeneity of electroless nickel–boron coatings are very important for
applications in corrosion and electronics and are completely dependent on the formation of …
