Surface Engineering, Thin Films, Coatings and Corrosion

This session addresses the design and modification of surfaces, interfaces, thin films and coatings. It includes deposition technologies, protective and functional coatings, surface treatments, interface engineering, corrosion, degradation, tribology, friction, wear and surface-characterization methods. 

Abstract Scope and Participation 

Researchers, engineers, coating specialists, corrosion professionals and industry participants are encouraged to contribute. Abstracts may present new materials, processing methods, performance evaluation, modelling, protection strategies and applications that improve durability, functionality, resistance and service life across industrial sectors.
