A variety of cutting tool materials are used for the contact mode mechanical machining of
components under extreme conditions of stress, temperature and/or corrosion, including …

The machining process is still a very relevant process in today's industry, being used to
produce high quality parts for multiple industry sectors. The machining processes are …

Turning continues to be the largest segment of the machining industry, which highlights the
continued demand for turned parts and the overall improvement of the process. The turning …

AlCr-based hard nitride coatings with different chemical compositions and architectures
have been successfully developed and applied over the last few decades. Coating …

The increasing demand for cost-efficient, high-quality machined products has led to a
requirement for cutting tools that are able to provide a long tool life even when operating …

This study synthesized three different coatings using multi-arc ion coating technology:
AlCrN, AlCrBN monolayer, and AlCrN/AlCrBN nano-multilayer coatings. A comparative …

Ti-Al-N is widely used as protective coating in various industrial applications. Here, we
investigate the influence of Ta content–ranging from 0 to 28 at.% on the metal sublattice–on …

In this work, we systematically investigate the effect of X-doped atom (X= La, Ce, Y, Hf, Zr,
Ta, Cr, Si) on the adsorption behavior of oxygen for Ti 0.5 Al 0.5 N (0 0 1) surface through …

Since protective transition metal (oxy) nitride coatings are widely used, understanding of the
mechanisms linking microstructure to their fracture behaviour is required to optimise wear …

The hot salt corrosion behavior of TiAlTaN coating and TiAlTaN/CrAlN multilayer coatings
with different modulation periods under external stress condition were studied. The complex …
