Hard and Wear-Resistant Nanocomposite Thin Film Coatings
Abstract: Recent advancements in the hard and wear-resistant protective coatings have made high speed machining increasingly viable in the industries. The nanocomposite coatings have immense applications today in dry and high speed machining due their high wear resistance and high oxidation resistance properties. The high oxidation and wear resistance properties are obtained by addition of fourth element such as silicon to tertiary transition metal nitride compounds. In this work, a review …

A Comprehensive Analysis of Coating Technology and Thin Films
Abstract: In contemporary materials science, thin film and coating technologies are essential because they allow for the improvement of surface characteristics, including electrical conductivity, hardness, corrosion resistance, and optical performance. These technologies use physical, chemical, or hybrid deposition techniques to deposit materials in layers that range in thickness from a few nanometres to several micrometres, depending on the required functional properties and application areas. The content, thickness, and microstructure of films …
