MANE 6371 Advanced Coatings and Surface Engineering

This course provides an overview of the surface treatment, surface modification, coatings synthesis and deposition technologies. Students will learn the conventional and most advanced techniques and processes of coatings and thin films disposition. Surface interface phenomena occurring during the coatings or thin films disposition (such agglomeration, adsorption, diffusion, nucleation, microstructure development etc.) will be covered. Coatings techniques, monitoring, performance evaluation, characterization and applications of advanced coatings in industry will be covered. This course provides hands-on laboratory experience in understanding the coatings formation and characterization. The course enhances learning retention through a comprehensive curriculum including real case studies, laboratory workshops plus interactive presentations detailing the proper installation and use of high performance coatings.
