The Journal of Coatings Technology and Research is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal. It is owned by the American Coatings Association and published on their behalf by Springer Science+Business Media. The editor-in-chief of the journal is Dr. Mark Nichols (Ford Motor Company).
In 1987, Matthews became an Editor of the Elsevier Surface and Coatings Technology journal, [26] becoming editor-in-chief in 2013. His research has been funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), [27] [28] the European Union (EU), European Research Council (ERC) and other governmental and industrial sources.
Plasma activation (or plasma functionalization) is a method of surface modification employing plasma processing, which improves surface adhesion properties of many materials including metals, glass, ceramics, a broad range of polymers and textiles and even natural materials such as wood and seeds.
Surface engineering is the sub-discipline of materials science which deals with the surface of solid matter. It has applications to chemistry , mechanical engineering , and electrical engineering (particularly in relation to semiconductor manufacturing ).
The use of a solution precursor was first reported as a coating technology by Karthikeyan et al. [3] [4] [5] In that work, Karthikeyan showed that the use of a solution precursor was in fact feasible; however, well adhered coatings could not be generated.
Such coatings provide protection against high temperatures (for example thermal barrier coatings for exhaust heat management), corrosion, erosion, wear; they can also change the appearance, electrical or tribological properties of the surface, replace worn material, etc. When sprayed on substrates of various shapes and removed, free-standing ...
A coating is a covering that is applied to the surface of an object, or substrate. [1] The purpose of applying the coating may be decorative, functional, or both. [ 2 ] Coatings may be applied as liquids , gases or solids e.g. powder coatings .
Plastic coating is a term that is commonly used in technology but is nevertheless ambiguous. It can be understood to mean the coating of plastic (e.g., metallization of plastics [ 1 ] ) or the coating of other materials (e.g., electrical cable ) with plastics.
