An excellent corrosion-resistant and good conductivity coating is desired for metal bipolar
plate (BP) in proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). In this view, a novel strategy to …

Abstract Fe-NC and Co-NC materials are promising catalysts for reducing oxygen in fuel
cells. The degradation of such catalysts induced by H 2 O 2 was investigated by contacting …

To investigate a novel method for removing thermal control coatings, nanosecond pulsed
lasers were used to clean inorganic thermal control coatings on aluminum alloys. This study …

Cr–Al–Si–N coatings with high and low Cr/Al ratios (CrAlSiN and AlCrSiN, respectively)
were deposited on WC substrates by cathodic arc and compared with a reference Cr–Al–N …

Abstract CrAlN, CrAlSiN and AlCrSiN coatings were deposited by cathodic arc deposition
technique from composite targets. Three targets were used:(i) Cr/Al ratio close to 1,(ii) Cr/Al …

The CrN x coatings were deposited on 316L stainless steel and silicon (100) wafer by multi-
arc ion plating with different N 2 flow rates. Composition, microstructures and mechanical …

Transition metal nitrides (TMNs), in some cases referred as metallic ceramics, have unique
physical and chemical properties, thanks to their ceramic-metallic nature, and are …

This paper presents a thorough biocompatibility evaluation of a CoCrMo medium entropy
alloy to assess its potential to be utilized in orthopedic and dental implants. For this purpose …

Biodiesel is recognized as one of the most attractive motor vehicle fuels of the future.
Therefore, technologies of its production are continuously improved and optimized. The …

Chromium nitride (CrN) and multilayers Cr/CrN coatings were deposited by low cathodic arc
technology. The thickness of Cr and CrN layers was identical; two different multilayer …
