In modern aerospace, nuclear energy, electric power and other high-tech industries,
increasingly more requirements are put forward for the enhanced performance and …

The machining process is still a very relevant process in today's industry, being used to
produce high quality parts for multiple industry sectors. The machining processes are …

Mo-Se-N films were prepared by pulsed direct current (DC) High Target Utilisation
Sputtering (HiTUS) in reactive Ar+ N 2 atmosphere. Here, the effect of nitrogen doping was …

Molybdenum disulphide (MoS 2) is well known for the exceptional tribological properties in
inert and high vacuum environments. On the other hand, these properties rapidly degrade in …

In this work, we doped sputtered MoSe 2 coatings with Ti to improve their mechanical and
tribological properties. Mo-Se-Ti coatings were prepared onto steel discs by High Target …

A powder metallurgy process was used to produce high temperature self-lubricating
composites based on Ni, with varying content of calcium fluoride (10 wt.% and 20 wt.%). The …

Tungsten‑sulfur‑carbon coatings are coatings that have excellent lubrication capability, with
an ability to adapt to different operating environments. Their performance as a function of the …

A self-lubricating coating is a kind of coating formed on the surface of the material by various
processes that can self-replenish lubricating substances during the friction and wear …

The tribological processes still cause a significant increase in energy consumption
worldwide. In this work, we deposited self-lubricating coatings for the purpose of reducing …

Friction and wear contribute to high energetic losses that reduce the efficiency of mechanical
systems. However, carbon alloyed transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD-C) coatings …
