To achieve a full protective coat on welding joints at both ends of zircaloy cladding tubes, we
studied the rapid deposition of a thick chromium coating on zircaloy-4 cladding tubes by …

Advances in materials performance often require the development of composite systems, of
which coated materials are one form. The abrasion and corrosion resistance of components …

Coatings in the Cr-CN ternary system were deposited by reactive vapour deposition using
an arc discharge. The structure and microhardness of the films are closely related to the …

Chromium carbide films were deposited by rf reactive magnetron sputtering of chromium in
an acetylene plasma. The carbon-to-chromium ratio in the films was found to increase with …

This paper introduces CrN and (Ti, AI) N coatings deposited using the random arc and
steered arc techniques. When compared with TiN, CrN coatings are characterized by the fact …

Coating for conferring good friction properties upon a substrate and comprising a non-
equilibrium alloy of chromium and nitrogen. The alloy comprises, per one hundred atoms …
