innovaTiAl Innovative coatings for aerospace, energy and automotive industry
Innovative processes and materials to synthesize knowledge-based ultra-performance nanostructured PVD thin films on gamma titanium aluminides
Coatings for New Efficient and Clean Coal Power Plants
Steam turbine components face various challenges, related to higher temperatures such as material failure due to high temperature oxidation, and phenomena such as creep and erosion caused by descaled fragments. HIPIMS deposited CrN/NbN coatings utilising nanoscale multilayer structure have shown a promising performance when subjected to various types of high temperature tests in an aggressive pure steam environment.
