logical or synthetic materials provide the most effective biological compatibility. Such scaffolds can be filled with stem cells, growth factors, blood plasma proteins, and other active substances including drugs [1 5]. In spite of adequate biological compatibility, such implants cannot be used in organs and tissues subjected to serious stress during functioning (e.g. teeth and joints). This pr...

There are many ways to coat tablets. Coatings are a very important part in the formulation of pharmaceutical dosage form to achieve excellent formulation quality (e.g., color, texture, mouth feel, and taste masking), physical and chemical protection for the drugs in the dosage forms, and modification of drug release characteristics. Most film coatings are applied as aqueous or organic-based pol...

A molybdenum boride (MoB) coating was prepared on molybdenum (Mo) by an in-situ chemical vapor deposition method. To develop a fuller understanding of the effect of depositional conditions on the growth of MoB coating formed on Mo substrate, this paper studied the phase composition and microstructure of the coating at varied conditions. At the same time, the relationships between the growth of ...

the effect of an electroless ni-cu-p coating on the fatigue behavior of quenched and tempered ck45 steel has been investigated. the fatigue tests under rotating bending conditions have been conducted in three different conditions of uncoated, as-deposited and shot peened prior to the coating deposition. the results indicate that plating of the base steel leads to a fatigue life reduction. the d...

Tightly bonding of bioactive coating is the first crucial need for orthopaedic implants. This study describes a novel and convenient technique to prepare bioactive coating with high adhesion on orthopaedic substitutes made of polymeric matrix. Here, a chemical corrosion method has been adopted to fabricate a coating on the surface of injection-moulded polyamide66 (PA66) substrates by corrosive ...

several investigations have been devoted towards understanding the coating process in fluidized beds. most of these studies focused on spraying liquid droplets over the bed. however, due to the complexity of these systems, more investigations are still required to quantify the effect of operating conditions on the coating criteria. the present work aims at fundamentally understanding and precis...

Researchers have been focused on the influences of flowing fluid on the corrosion of bare metals, but there is little emphasis on the degradation of metal-protective coating. Evaluating the metal-protective coating usually uses the Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) method. EIS is a technique used for evaluating coating permeability or barrier performance based on the electrical imped...

Novel scaffolds composed of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) skeleton covered with bonelike apatite or apatite/collagen composite were produced via a combined phase-separation technique and an accelerated biomimetic coating process. Saos-2 osteoblast-like cells were used to evaluate the cellular behaviors on these biomimetic coatings. Cell morphologies on the surfaces of PLLA scaffolds, PLLA scaffold...

in this research, b4c-ni cermet coating was sprayed on the surface of 4130 steel from b4c and ni feed-stockpowders using high velocity oxy-fuel (hvof) method. in order to characterize the tribological behavior of thecoating, ball on disk wear tests were done at the ambient temperature and under the loads of 1, 3 and 5 n.phase analysis of the coating after spraying was studied by x-ray diffracto...

A novel cobalt-free Cu1.2Mn1.8O4 spinel coating is prepared and evaluated for the metal interconnect of solid oxide fuel cell. Mn-35Cu and Co-35Mn alloy coatings are deposited on 430 SS substrate and then in-situ oxidized in air at 750 ◦C for 100 h. XRD results confirm that Cu1.2Mn1.8O4 spinel with some Mn2O3 is formed, and the average thickness of the coating is 70–80 μm according to cross sec...
