  1. 1. Effect of temperature on early stage adhesion during TiAlN sliding against Inconel 718 and Stainless steel 316L : High temperature tribology

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Ahsan Ali; [2023]
    Keywords : High temperature tribology; Early-stage adhesion; Adhesive wear; Friction; Wear resistant coatings; Physical vapour deposition PVD coatings; TiAlN; Tungsten carbide WC Co ; Difficult to machine super alloys; Inconel 718; Stainless steel 316L; High-performance materials; Abrasion; Oxidation; Chipping; Ploughing; Characterization;

    Abstract : High-performance materials such as stainless steels and nickel based super alloys are widely used in demanding applications where high mechanical and thermal properties are required. The applications of super alloys are mainly found in jet engines, power plants and gas turbines demanding high fatigue strength, corrosion and oxidation resistance as well as wear resistant properties.

  3. 2. Erosion Behaviour of Thermal Barrier Coatings

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Konstruktionsmaterial

    Author : Caroline Wännman; [2021]
    Keywords : erosion; TBC; APS; EB-PVD; PS-PVD; failure mechanisms;

    Abstract : Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are advanced material systems used in the hot sections of gas turbines. The TBCs are designed to provide insulation against hot gases by a ceramic top coat and to provide oxidation and corrosion resistance by a metallic bond coat. READ MORE

  4. 3. Optimizing Transmission Kikuchi Diffraction for Analysing Grain Size and Orientation of Nanocrystalline Coatings

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

    Author : Axel Tryblom; [2015]
    Keywords : TKD; t-EBSD; Kikuchi diffraction; coating; nanocrystalline; sample preparation; in situ lift-out; DualBeam; precision mechanical polishing; SEM;

    Abstract : In order to increase efficiency and lifetime of cutting tools it is typical to apply thin coatings by physical or chemical vapour deposition. Applying coatings on cutting tools has shown an increase in both efficiency and lifetime and are of large interest in further development. READ MORE

  5. 4. Wet etching of optical thin films

    University essay from JTH, Kemiteknik

    Author : Curt Edström; [2010]
    Keywords : Thin film; Wet etching; Optical coating; Physical vapour deposition;

    Abstract : Evaluation of the wet etching properties of several different thin film oxidesgrown by physical vapour deposition was performed in this work. MgO, Al2O3,SiO2, TiO2, HfO2 ZrO2 and Y2O3 were coated on two types of substrates; Si andborosilicate glass and etching tests were performed in different etchingsolutions. READ MORE
