2. Physical vapor deposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_vapor_deposition

   Physical vapor deposition (PVD), sometimes called physical vapor transport (PVT), describes a variety of vacuum deposition methods which can be used to produce thin films and coatings on substrates including metals, ceramics, glass, and polymers. PVD is characterized by a process in which the material transitions from a condensed phase to a ...

3. Chrome plating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrome_plating

   Hard chrome plating. Hard chrome, also known as industrial chrome or engineered chrome, is used to reduce friction, improve durability through abrasion tolerance and wear resistance in general, minimize galling or seizing of parts, expand chemical inertness to include a broader set of conditions (such as oxidation resistance), and bulking ...

4. Sputter deposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sputter_deposition

   Sputter coating in scanning electron microscopy is a sputter deposition process [clarification needed] to cover a specimen with a thin layer of conducting material, typically a metal, such as a gold/palladium (Au/Pd) alloy. A conductive coating is needed to prevent charging of a specimen with an electron beam in conventional SEM mode (high ...

5. Titanium nitride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_nitride

   Titanium nitride (TiN; sometimes known as tinite) is an extremely hard ceramic material, often used as a physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating on titanium alloys, steel, carbide, and aluminium components to improve the substrate's surface properties.

6. Vacuum deposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_deposition

   When the vapor source is a liquid or solid, the process is called physical vapor deposition (PVD), [3] which is used in semiconductor devices, thin-film solar panels, and glass coatings. [4] When the source is a chemical vapor precursor, the process is called chemical vapor deposition (CVD).

7. Ion plating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_plating

   Ion plating (IP) is a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process that is sometimes called ion assisted deposition (IAD) or ion vapor deposition (IVD) and is a modified version of vacuum deposition. Ion plating uses concurrent or periodic bombardment of the substrate, and deposits film by atomic-sized energetic particles called ions .

   Typically, dementia is associated with classic symptoms like confusion and memory loss. But new research finds that there could be a less obvious risk factor out there: your cholesterol levels ...

9. Surface finishing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_finishing

   A #7 finish is produced by polishing with a 280–320 grit belt or wheel and sisal buffing with a cut and color compound. This is a semi-bright finish that will still have some polishing lines but they will be very dull. Carbon steel and iron are commonly polished to a #7 finish before chrome plating.
