In new research, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory combined computation and experiment to find candidate protective coatings for sulfide-based solid ...

[Pete] had a friend who would powder coat metal parts for him, but when he needed 16 metal parts coated, he decided he needed to develop a way to do it himself. Some research turned up the fluid bed ...

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings occupy a distinctive position in modern surface engineering. By combining extreme hardness, low friction, high wear ...

In a step towards developing advanced materials for functional coatings, a research group has developed a technology that combines structural color coating with super water-repellent properties. The ...

Think of a metal with paint on it, like an automobile or a pipeline carrying natural gas. The paint or polymer coating protects the metal underneath from degrading. Although the coating should ideally ...

This appendix reviews various coating process technologies: diffusion coating, thermal spray (particulate deposition), physical vapor deposition (atomistic or molecular transfer), and sputtering ...

As industries worldwide prioritize sustainability, the powder coating sector is making significant strides by incorporating post-consumer recycled PET (rPET) into resin formulations. This innovative ...

For parts with lower temperature thresholds, such as composites, an ultraviolet (UV) curable powder coating can be an ideal solution. Source (All Images) | Keyland Polymer From aerospace and ...

As summer turns to fall, many people will be turning off the air conditioning and firing up heaters instead. But traditional heating and cooling systems are energy intensive, and because they ...
