  1. 1. Formation and Function of Low-Friction Tribofilms

    Författare :Harald Skiöld Nyberg; Staffan Jacobson; Allan Matthews; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tribology; tribofilm; PVD; coating; low-friction; tungsten disulphide; transition metal dichalcogenide; tribochemistry; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tribomaterial; Engineering Science with specialization in Tribo Materials;

    Sammanfattning : The use of low-friction coatings on machine elements is steadily increasing, and they are expected to play an important role in the reduction of fuel consumption of future motorized vehicles. Many low-friction coatings function by transformation of the outermost coating layer into tribofilms, which then cover the coating surface and its counter surface. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Synthesis and Characterization of Amorphous Carbide-based Thin Films

    Författare :Matilda Folkenant; Ulf Jansson; Erik Lewin; Paul Mayrhofer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Amorphous; coating; thin film; nanocomposite; sputter deposition; PVD; XPS; SEM; TEM; electrical properties; mechanical properties;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, research on synthesis, structure and characterization of amorphous carbide-based thin films is presented. Crystalline and nanocomposite carbide films can exhibit properties such as high electrical conductivity, high hardness and low friction and wear. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Metallic materials for solid oxide fuel cells and electrolysers - Mitigating high temperature corrosion

    Författare :Mareddy Reddy; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PVD; High-temperature corrosion; MCO coating; Interconnect; Balance of Plant; Chromium evaporation; SOFC;

    Sammanfattning : Solid oxide cells (SOCs) are high-temperature energy conversion devices that have great potential due to their high efficiency, low operating costs, and flexibility. SOCs can produce electricity from a variety of fuels as solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), and they can convert electricity to fuels as solid oxide electrolyser cells (SOECs). LÄS MER

  5. 4. Development and performance evaluation of accident-tolerant coated fuel claddings for light water reactors

    Författare :Andrea Fazi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PVD; oxidation; accident tolerant fuel; autoclave; cold spray; nitride coatings; Cr coating;

    Sammanfattning : The development of accident tolerant fuel has the aim of providing nuclear fuels able to endure severe accident conditions. Research in this field has also sparked a wave of material renewal in the nuclear industry that had been delayed for the last few decades. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Silicon nitride based coatings for biomedical implants

    Författare :Charlotte Skjöldebrand; Cecilia Persson; Håkan Engqvist; Julia Shelton; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; silicon nitride; ceramic coating; deposition; PVD; dissolution; biocompatibility;

    Sammanfattning : Silicon nitride-based coatings have been proposed as a means to reduce the release of metal ions and debris from metallic implants. This reduction in combination with the biocompatible debris from silicon nitride could result in a less adverse immune response. LÄS MER
