The superhydrophobic surfaces inspired by the lotus have excellent performances and are
known for their low contact angle hysteresis and smooth surfaces. However, there are still …

In this work graphene-based solid lubricants biofunctionalized with hyaluronic acid were
deposited on CoCr surfaces to decrease wear-corrosion phenomena. Graphene oxide was …

Fretting fatigue causes failures in steel wire ropes. These steel wires are usually galvanised.
This zinc coating could change the crack initiation process, as it modifies the contact …

This paper reports an investigation into the deployment of a thin layer of tin as a lubricant on
low carbon steel tube for tube drawing process. The layer was deposited using electro …

In this work, a superhydrophobic top coating was applied to an A653 hot-dipped galvanized
steel. Nanoindentation tests were performed to measure hardness and the ratio of hardness …

In this paper, the tin coating layer is utilized as a solid lubricant for the cold steel tube
drawing process. The effect of different thicknesses of tin coatings as a tribo-layer has been …

For severe metal deformation processes such as metal drawing operations, the use of
porous lubricant carrier layer on metal surfaces has been proposed in recent literature for …
