Modern Techniques of Coating and Drying in Surface Engineering

Modern Techniques of Coating and Drying in Surface Engineering takes into account the processes of coating and drying, and the surface defects involved in coating. It also comprises preparation of feed for the process of coating and the concept of roll coating. It provides the reader with the fundamental notion of advanced techniques applied in the process of coating and drying in the field of surface engineering so as to analyze the surface defects involved in these processes, preparation of feed for coating process and advantages of using dry coating metallic powder mixtures in drying processes. This book also discusses about experiment research on hot-rolling processing of non-smooth pit surface bioinspired superhydrophobic surfaces, fabricated through simple and scalable roll-to-roll processing, quality of electroless ni-p (nickel-phosphorus) coatings applied in oil production equipment with salinity, laser alloying advantages by dry coating metallic powder mixtures with SiOx nanoparticles and low-temperature, dry transfer-printing of a patterned graphene monolayer.
