Researchers at the R&D Center of Lubricating and Protecting Materials of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics, CAS (LICP, CAS) have prepared two nickel-based high temperature wear resistant coatings, namely NiCrBSi coating and NiCrBSi/WC-Ni composite coating, on stainless steel by laser cladding.
The surface/interface research group from the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics of the CAS has developed self-healing surface that can recover its water- and oil-repelling qualities after damage (Chem. Commun., 2011, 47, 2324–2326). The work was highlighted by Nature Asia-pacific in the recent issue (NPG Asia Materials featured highlight | ...
Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating is one of the most promising functional coatings. It possesses many important characteristics such as extremely high hardness, high thermal and chemical stability, and excellent tribological properties.
The research group headed by Prof. Deng Youquan of the R&D Center for Green Chemistry and Catalysis of the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, (LICP, CAS) has achieved the heterogeneous catalyzed non-phosgene synthesis of N-substituted carbamates, an important isocyanate precursor.
As a kind of typical solid lubricant materials, copper–graphite (Cu/Gr) composite is environmental friendly and has a variety of applications in engineering. Therefore, the investigation on its tribological properties and application in sliding bearings, electrical brushes, and other components which serve under sliding and oil-free lubricated ...
