Thin conducting films are distinct from bulk materials and have become prevalent over the
past decades as they possess unique physical, electrical, optical, and mechanical …

Abstract Zirconium (Zr) based MXenes are a new type of two–dimensional (2D) transition
metal carbides and carbonitrides that have attracted significant research interest in recent …

In order to improve the bonding strength of FeCoCrNiMn cladding layer, laser power,
scanning speed and powder feeding rate were selected as the optimization variables; the …

In this paper, a Cr coating was prepared by induction heating and pack-cementation
chromizing on AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel. Then, the cold-rolling deformation and …

Shaft-surface friction pairs in marine equipment endure considerable wear and corrosion in
seawater, particularly under cyclic loading. A friction and wear test bench was employed to …

M420 stainless steel has good mechanical properties, but its corrosion resistance is poor,
which limits its application in marine conditions. Single-technology processing has been …

This study investigates anti-corrosion properties of anodized and hydrophobically modified
anodized SUS 304 stainless steel (SS 304). Utilizing electrochemical anodization and …

In this work, a new type of high-entropy ceramic powder (La 0.2 Ce 0.2 Gd 0.2 Er 0.2 Sm 0.2)
2 Zr 2 O 7 was synthesized by sol-gel method and high-temperature sintering (1000° C) …

Abstract Two polymorphic Ni–Mo-based coordination polymers (CPs) based on the ligand
N, N′-bis (4-pyridinecarboxamide)-1, 2-cyclohexane (4-bpah) were created using …

Although TiAlN has been thoroughly studied, there is still an ongoing demand for
developing new-based TiAlN films with enhanced protection efficiency for a long lifetime and …
