Metal halide perovskites are promising for next-generation high-efficiency photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices due to excellent optoelectronic properties and solution processability. Recent ...

What happens when you hit a stack of Blu-ray discs with a supersonic HVOF jet? This extreme industrial demo shows a high-velocity HVOF (High Velocity Oxy-Fuel) spray firing tungsten carbide particles ...

In spray coating applications, fine powder, often a polymer, is drawn from a storage container, fluidized, and then sprayed through a charged nozzle onto a substrate. It is crucial that the powder ...

If you’ve had a great season so far, chances are that the spit and polish you put on your boat’s gelcoat finish this past spring is losing some its luster. Boating Lab has tested many of the best ...

ABSTRACT: Erosive-corrosive wear experiments were conducted on coatings deposited by flame spray/flexicord and high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spray techniques onto AISI 1020 steel substrates.

The laser remelting technique on tungsten carbide (12Co–4Cr WC) and chromium carbide (Cr 3 C 2 –25NiCr) coatings deposited by HVOF provides improvements in surface properties, such as increased ...

The pursuit of achieving and maintaining a shiny and clean car is never-ending, but that doesn't mean there aren't ways to make it easier. If you've spent time researching the best ways to keep your ...
