High-Performance Materials and Coatings for Industry

High-Performance Materials and Coatings for Industry research group focuses on processing, research and development of high-performance coatings for aerospace, automotive, power energetics and biological/biomedical applications. As an example, the high-temperature coatings, cavitation-resistant coatings and wear-resistant coatings produced by means of thermal spraying or electrochemical methods can be mentioned. The members of the research group coming from materials science and engineering, physics, chemistry and computational science branches also focus on research, development and failure analyses of bulk metallic alloys, surface and interface interactions, and powder processing in close collaboration with Industry. The research group is as well responsible for the development of uncommon and unconventional testing techniques like cavitation resistance testing apparatus, cyclic furnace oxidation test, burner-rig test, etc.
