Surface Engineering of Metals: Principles, Equipment, and Technologies

By T. Burakowski and T. Wierzchon

Written for materials scientists, mechanical engineers, and chemical engineers, this book provides basic definitions of classical and modern surface treatments, addressing mechanisms of formation, microstructure, and properties of surface layers. Part I outlines the fundamentals of surface engineering, presents the history of its development, and proposes a two-category classification of surface layers. Part II provides an original classification of the technologies of surface layers. Applications discussed include wear resistance, anticorrosion, and decorative coatings. Describes new surface treatments, including plasma-activated chemical vapor deposition, physical vapor deposition, and ion implantation. Also identifies problems and solutions related to surface layers and coatings as well as phase composition.
