The nitrides of most of the group IVb-Vb-VIb transition metals (TiN, ZrN, HfN, VN, NbN, TaN,
MoN, WN) constitute the unique category of conductive ceramics. Having substantial …

About 1.5-μm-thick single-layer TiN, CrN, TiAlN coatings and nanolayered TiN/CrN,
TiAlN/CrN multilayer coatings were deposited on silicon (111) substrates using a reactive …

Additive manufacturing of near β-type Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloys using the laser powder bed
fusion process (LPBF) opens up new avenues to tailor the microstructure and subsequent …

During the regular operation of a petrochemical plant, the degradation and corrosion of
some metallic parts frequently occur. These parts are exposed, from the oil extraction to …

Titanium nitride (TiN) coatings fabricated through reactive sputtering feature a suite of
parameters capable of altering the microstructure and properties. Here, we explore the …

Alternative process to hexavalent chromium plating, substitute materials and new designs
are urgently needed owing to the requirement of “clean” manufacture. This comparative …

In this study, the electrochemical behavior of chromium nitride (CrN) coatings deposited on
two steel substrates, AISI 304 and AISI 1440, was investigated. The CrN coatings were …

Transition metal nitrides have attracted significant attention for energy storage applications
due to their unique structural, electronic and catalytic properties. In this study, chromium …

The effect of composition and metal sublattice population on the phase stability, structure
and elastic properties of cubic (c), hexagonal (h) and orthorhombic spin-polarized Cr1 …

The main goal of this study is to compare the electrochemical behavior of CrN/TiN multilayer
coating and TiN single-layer coating applied by cathodic arc evaporation (CAE)-physical …
