Fabrication of Nanostructures by Plasma Electrolysis: ALIOFKHAZRAEI:PLASMA ELE. O-BK

In this handbook and ready reference, the authors introduce the concept of plasma electrolysis, explaining how the coatings are characterized and discussing their mechanical and corrosion properties. They then go on to look at specific industrial applications of this powerful and low-cost method, including aerospace, the biomaterials industry as well as in the oil and gas industry.Content: Chapter 1 Synthesis and Processing of Nanostructured Films, and Introduction to and Comparison with Plasma Electrolysis (pages 1–22): Chapter 2 Introduction to Plasma Concepts and Discharge Configurations (pages 23–41): Chapter 3 Characterization of Nanocrystalline Hard Coatings and their Use for Layers Fabricated by Plasma Electrolysis (pages 43–63): Chapter 4 Nanocrystalline Plasma Electrolytic Saturation (pages 65–84): Chapter 5 Corrosion Properties of Nanostructured Coatings Made by Plasma Electrolytic Saturation (pages 85–138): Chapter 6 Mechanical Properties of Nanostructured Coatings Made by Plasma Electrolytic Saturation (pages 139–194): Chapter 7 Advantages and Disadvantages of Plasma Electrolysis (pages 195–210): Chapter 8 Nanostructured Coatings Made by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (pages 211–235): Chapter 9 Conclusions (pages 237–242): This handbook and ready reference introduces the concept, explaining how the coatings are characterized and discussing their mechanical and corrosion properties.
