The current study analyses the possible application of corn starch- and glycerol-based coatings on wood surfaces to assess their impact, both positive and negative, and the necessity to modify them to improve strength an...

The present work investigates the friction and wear properties of composite Bi2S3–MoS2 soft coatings under different humidity levels. To achieve this goal, suspensions containing different proportions of Bi2S3 and MoS2...

Studies of Mn4Si7 coatings of different thicknesses have shown that magnetron deposition practically does not change the composition of the coating in comparison with the composition of the target. The technology and bas...

The paper formulates the problem of joint electrolytic co-deposition of metal ions and ultradispersed diamond particles into a metal matrix. It presents the developed mathematical model that describes the mechanism and k...

Thin-film coatings offer a scalable optical platform, as compared to nanopatterned films, for various applications including structural coloring, photovoltaics, and sensing. Recently, Fano resonant optical coatings (FROC...

The objective of this work was to analyse the effect of partial sucrose replacement by isomalt on the thermal, rheological, and moisture sorption behaviour of cocoa-flavoured confectionery coatings. Formulations were ela...

This study was focused on the synthesis and characterization of Si/Zr-based hybrid sol-gel coatings with and without the addition of cerium(III) ions. The coatings were deposited on aluminum aiming to act as an effective...

By reaction between stearic acid (SA) and a di-epoxidized oligomeric poly(ethylene glycol) under stoichiometric conditions, an amphiphilic β-hydroxyester (β-HE) bearing pendant alkyl chains was obtained with a typical ...

Inconel 625 alloy exhibits excellent high-temperature performance and corrosion resistance and is frequently used as a protective coating material for oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance. Howe...

The dissolution behavior of atmospheric calcium (Ca) mineral dust released from arid regions and their climate impacts via buffering effects are highly dependent on their size-resolved mineralogical composition. Due to t...

Multiple mode resonance shifts in tilted fiber Bragg gratings (TFBGs) are used to simultaneously measure the thickness and the refractive index of TiO2 thin films formed by Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) on optical fibers...

The angular properties of light emitted from rare-earth based nanophosphors embedded in optical resonators built in one-dimensional photonic crystal coatings are herein investigated. Strong directional dependence of the ...

In this article, we report the measurement of underwater aerophobicity, through the captive-bubble method, for different polymeric coatings employed to protect microscale and nanoscale flexible electronic devices for sea...

The inadequate corrosion resistance and conductivity of metal bipolar plates are major obstacles to the commercialization of proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE). In this work, Nb/NbN/Mo-containing NbN mul...

The aim of this study is to investigate the wear resistance of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films and wear debris of polyethylene using pin-on-disc testing on two groups of CoCrMo discs with DLC coatings. DLC coatings depos...

In this study, dopamine (DA) was covalently grafted onto graphene oxide (GO) to form a functionalized nanofiller, onto which calcium ions were subsequently coordinated, yielding GO–PDA–Ca nanocomposites for epoxy coa...

Cheese surfaces can be colonized by undesirable microorganisms during the different processing stages, with ripening being the most affected. Consumers demand have increased the interest in using natural antimicrobials s...

In order to reduce the cost of the thick-film technology of microcircuits and heating elements, as well as toexpand its areas of use, it became necessary to expand the range of materials that, along with ceramics and ste...

This study addresses the issue of nanoparticle agglomeration and the resulting inhomogeneous structure and performance degradation in Cu–Al₂O₃ composite coatings prepared by jet electrodeposition. To improve partic...

Abstract A fiber laser was used to perform multiple laser cladding passes on AISI 1045 steel to fabricate SiC particle-reinforced Ni60A alloy coatings. The microstructure and phase composition of the cladding layers were...

In this work, we report on the electroplating of ultrafine and uniform magnesium (Mg) films on copper (Cu) and carbon nanotube (CNT) paper substrates. By controlling the process parameters and utilizing the pulsed deposi...
