Description
In recent years the development of new and refined methods of preparing different coatings, and their use in various fields have been attracting increasing interest. The aim of this volume is to emphasize the relationship between properties of surfaces and coatings and their methods of preparation. Basic concepts and models occurring in the processing of surfaces, or in the preparation of coatings, and affecting properties and the use of products are explained. New methods of surface treatment and preparation of coatings for mechanical engineering are also discussed. A global survey of problems is given including the atomic structure of metal surfaces, properties of real surfaces and layers, various films and coatings as well as the conditions for their damage. The results of research work in surface engineering, particularly the influence of machining, laser treatment and shot peening on the surfaces, properties and roughness of the films is reviewed. A comprehensive bibliography is included providing current references for more in depth coverage.
