SUPERSONIC DEPOSITION OF NANOSTRUCTURED SURFACES (SUPERSONIC)

Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2013,

"The basic scientific and technological concept of the project is to use agglomerated nanophased powders to be transferred onto a substrate in the form a coating with very little or none change of crystal structure. This will allow to obtain nano-structured coatings with a crystal size very close to the powder one. The concept will be extended to an important breakthrough concept that is the “Sup ...
