This book describes current, competitive coating technologies for vehicles. The authors detail how these technologies impact energy efficiency in engines and with increased use of lightweight materials and by varying coatings applications can resolve wear problems, resulting in the increased lifecycle of dies and other vehicle components.
This book describes current, competitive coating technologies for vehicles. The authors detail how these technologies impact energy efficiency in engines and with increased use of lightweight materials and by varying coatings applications can resolve wear problems, resulting in the increased lifecycle of dies and other vehicle components. Describes in detail the thermal spray process and low friction and hard coating applications for vehicles including DLC coatings, PTFE coatings, and coatings for parts, dies, tools, and glass Illustrates new advances in surface engineering technologies including PVD coating, surface texturing, and patterning Explains how the use of low friction coating applications effects fuel economy and emissions in vehicles
