Synopsis

Surface engineering is a technology widely applicable to a range of industrial sector activities. It encompasses techniques and processes capable of creating and/or modifying surfaces to provide enhanced performance such as wear, corrosion and fatigue resistance. Surface engineering processes can be used to produce multilayer and multicomponent surfaces, graded surfaces with novel properties and surfaces with high non-equilibrium structures. Part of a three-volume set that explores surface engineering technology, this text is dedicated to the performance of coatings and surface treatments in four areas: the inhibition of wear; corrosion control; the application of coatings in machining; and the quality and properties of coatings.
