PEM fuel cells are of prime interest in transportation applications due to their relatively high
efficiency and low pollutant emissions. Bipolar plates are the key components of these …

This paper presents a review on sintered titanium nitride and titanium carbonitride-based
cermets. TiN and TiCN based composites are remarkable class of cermets showing …

In Part I, of this work the equivalent circuits for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy
(EIS) modelling of PVD coated steels in 0.5 N NaCl solution were established. In this paper …

Various electrochemical techniques, usually used to characterise the corrosion resistance of
coated steel, are compared in order to evaluate the porosity of various protective coatings …

AC electrochemical measurement techniques such as electrochemical impedance
spectroscopy (EIS) are finding their usefulness in evaluation of the corrosion behaviour of …

Multi-principal-element (TiZrNbHfTa) N and (TiZrNbHfTa) C coatings were deposited on
Ti6Al4V alloy by co-sputtering of Ti, Zr, Nb, Hf and Ta metallic targets in reactive …

The corrosion resistance of mild steel coated with single layered and multi-layered TiN and
CrN coatings has been studied. The base material was coated with TiN and CrN by an …

The borides of transition and rare-earth metals are considered for application as wear-and
corrosion-resistant, decorative or thermionic coatings. After a review of physical vapor …

When stainless steel components are subjected to sliding or rolling contacts in marine
environment, wear and corrosion efforts are simultaneously combined, resulting in …

Tools and machine parts which could benefit from wear-resistant titanium-based hard films
are often subject to corrosive environments. Physically vapour-deposited coatings frequently …
