In this work, the effect of heat-treatment time (0 h, 2 h, 4 h, and 8 h) at 300° C on the
microstructure and tribological properties of (TiVCrAlMo) N high-entropy alloy (HEA) films …

Featured Application The results of this study could increase the lifetime of tool steels in their
specific application. Abstract It is desirable to improve tool steel wear resistance to produce …

High temperature and high-speed pressing in minting operations lead to the failure of coin-
stam** dies. As a result, new coining tools were required more frequently leading to lower …

The present research deals with the deposition of carbon nanotubes (CNT) over the HSS
tool, and to evaluate the machining performance of the coated tool with respect to the …

High entropy alloy nitrided (HEAN) films have attracted much attention due to excellent
properties, but the maximum solid solubility of nitrogen limits further exploration. In this …

Multi-layered nitride coatings have been widely applied to improve the mechanical and anti-
corrosive of metals and/or alloys. Cr2N/TiN multilayer coatings were prepared by the …

The corrosion behavior of the TiN monolayer and CrN/TiN multilayer coatings deposited via
cathodic arc evaporation physical vapor deposition (CAE‐PVD) on the Ti–6Al–4V substrates …

Steel substrates have high mechanical strength and low fabrication cost. Therefore, these
materials can be used in pipelines, drilling equipment, ship building, and offshore structures …
