Description

Surface engineering was founded by detecting surface features which destroy most of pieces, e.g. abrasion, corrosion, fatigue, and disruption; then it was recognized, more than ever, that most technological advancements are constrained with surface requirements. Probably, the key importance of surface engineering is producing new materials, which are just resulted in advance coating. Though electronic and optical electronic apparatuses are sharp examples, but nowadays most of mechanic engineering blocks are included in this topic. This handbook includes new aspects of surface engineering regarding nanocoatings and biocoatings from their fabrication methods to properties and usages in five volumes.

Key features

  • Describe new methods: New methods will be described such as plasma-based treatments, which enables the reader to find easily (time saving) in one source all the new treatment methods and select the most appropriate for his/her particular problem/situation
  • Show the properties and mechanisms: Properties and also possible mechanisms will be discussed in this book by well-known invited experts and can be used for industry people to compare for industrialization of new methods for specific components with desired properties
  • Classification of new methods: There will be a part for classification of all discovered methods up to now, even those discussed in this book or those not. It will help better understanding of treatments and also show which treatments are near each other in setup for possible replacement of conventional methods
  • New applications: Some new applications for new world can be discussed. This handbook will also show the methods that can be consider as a successful replacement of hazardous methods such as chromate plating and possible applications
  • Advantages and drawbacks
  • Illustrates comparison for new methods and their ability to optimise the properties
  • Other usual features that add for more attraction such as written statements from well known scientists
  • We will have a foreword for the book written by a Nobel Laureate (such as Professor Sir H. W. Kroto and/or Professor Jean-Marie Lehn) – Also we will ask well-known groups to grant permission for using some of their images for cover design

Mircea Chipara

Mircea Chipara is Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics and Geology. The research of Dr. Chipara is focused on materials obtained by dispersing nanometer - sized particles with different physical properties (mechanical, optical, thermal, electrical, or magnetic) within polymeric matrices (nanocomposites). Such materials may exhibit multifunctional properties and may present smart capabilities. Due to their low weight and outstanding physical properties, nanocomposites have potential applications as space materials. The research of Dr. Chipara also includes a thorough investigation of the fundamental mechanisms and processes responsible for the degradation of polymers and polymer – based nanocomposites.
