Friction and wear usually lead to huge energy loss and failure of machine pairs, which
usually causes great economic losses. Researchers have made great efforts to reduce …

Various typical engineering components fail from surface under aggressive conditions like
oxidation and hot corrosion. This paper is focused on the responsible failure mechanism of …

Main regularities of the formation of microstructure and properties of multilayer
nanostructured CrN/MoN films with periodically changing architecture of layers were …

Abstract We report on CrN/MoN multilayer coatings, their structure, elemental and phase
composition, residual stresses, mechanical properties and their dependence on deposition …

Friction and wear in different engine components have crucial effects on the engine
performance, combustion efficiency, oil consumption and lifetime of the internal combustion …

The wear behavior of the chromium nitride (CrN) coating on piston ring material against liner
material was investigated under dry conditions at room temperatures. Cat iron alloy, widely …

In this study, the performance and emission of a thermal barrier coating (TBC) engine which
applied palm oil biodiesel and diesel as a fuel were evaluated. TBC was prepared by using …

Molybdenum nitride coatings were synthesized by ion-beam-assisted-deposition (IBAD).
The effects of nitrogen partial pressure and bombarding ion energy on the phase formation …

Ternary transition metal nitrides have procured wide attention towards practical application
due to their high hardness, wear resistance and thermal stability. In this study, Hf 1-x Mo x N …

Although many research activities concentrate on transition metal nitrides, due to their
excellent properties, only little is known about Mo–N based materials. We investigate in …
