Under the collaboration, Sono-Tek’s precision ultrasonic coating technology is expected to be integrated into Diamond Quanta’s manufacturing workflow to support repeatable thin-film deposition and ...

Mineral scale inside pipes is one of those hidden problems that quietly drains money and energy from industrial systems, municipal utilities, and home infrastructure. Now a new generation of lab-grown ...

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The diamond coatings market is expected to grow by USD 980.22 million during 2020-2024, according to Technavio. The report offers a detailed analysis of the impact of the ...

Nano-diamond material specialist Carbodeon, based in Helsinki, Finland, working with metal finishing specialist CCT Plating (Stuttgart, Germany), has developed a new electroless nickel, PTFE (EN-PTFE) ...

Chris Walker looks at some of the uses of a novel amorphous diamond material. Diamond — hard, sparkling and bright — has been revered for thousands of years as a gemstone. Nowadays it is also widely ...

Low-friction, low-wear and anti-adhesion properties are the highly desirable characteristics of these coatings, which include diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings as well as nanostructured metal ...

Illustration of the laser-induced transformation of diamond into planar-oriented graphite, with interfacial thermal stress control, followed by mechanical cleavage into graphene, ultimately achieving ...

Coating engine components with hard carbon reduces friction to almost zero -- a development that could save billions of liters of fuel worldwide every year. Now researchers have developed a new laser ...

In industrial pipes, mineral deposits build up the way limescale collects inside a kettle ⎯ only on a far larger and more expensive scale. Mineral scaling is a major issue in water and energy systems, ...
