Microstructure, micro-hardness, adhesion strength and cross-sectional morphology of the obtained multilayer coatings were investigated. The results show that the Vickers hardness of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coating, with a film thickness of 11.37 μm, is 29.36 GPa. The erosion and salt spray resistance performance of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates can be evidently improved by Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coating. The surface roughness of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates plays an important role in determining the mechanical and erosion performances of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coatings. Overall, a low value of the surface roughness of substrates corresponds to an improved performance of erosion and salt spray resistance of multilayer coatings. The optimized performance of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coatings can be achieved provided that the surface roughness of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates is lower than 0.4μm.展开更多

Substrate temperature and oxygen flow rate have important influences on the properties of ITO:Zr films. ITO:Zr films show better crystalline structure and lower surface roughness. Better optical-electrical properties of the films can be achieved at low substrate temperature. The certain oxygen flow rates worsen the electrical properties but can enhance the optical properties of ITO:Zr films. The variation in optical band gap can be explained on the basis of Burstin-Moss effect.展开更多

The results show that this MOF could be potentially interesting when being used as the pure membrane material for the separation of the mixture with low H2 S concentration. Further, the performance of 10 different mixed matrix membranes(MMMs) on the basis of the MOF was predicted by combing the molecular simulation data and the Maxwell permeation model. The results indicate that using this MOF as filler particles in MMMs can signi ficantly enhance the permeation performance of pure polymers. The findings obtained in this work may be helpful in facilitating the application of this promising MOF for practical desulfurization process of fuel gas.展开更多
