This book addresses the recent trends in high-temperature coatings that are used to provide oxidation and wear resistance to metallic/ceramic components in extreme environments. Ceramics, intermetallics, organosilicon polymers, cermets, and other materials with great thermal stability have long been recognized for these applications. This book introduces the state of the art in coating materials and processes for high-temperature environments and identifies areas for improvement in materials selection, performance upgrades, design considerations, and manufacturing methods. The book covers a variety of high-temperature coatings prepared through various synthesis processes such as thermal spraying, physical vapor deposition, electrodeposition, and sol-gel methods. It covers corrosion/oxidation, phase stability, and thermal and mechanical behavior of high-temperature coating materials having greater thermal stability. With contributions from international researchers active in the field, this edited book features the most recent and up-to-date literature references for a broad readership consisting of academic and industrial professionals. It is suitable for graduate students as well as scientists and engineers working in the area of anti-corrosion and anti-wear resistant high-temperature coatings for industrial applications.

Amirhossein Pakseresht is an associate professor and head of coating department at FunGlass Centre for Functional and Surface Functionalized Glass, Alexander Dubcek University of Trencin, Slovakia. He received his undergraduate study in materials science and engineering from Tehran University which is the biggest and oldest university in Iran. Pakseresht completed his Ph.D. in materials science and engineering at Materials and Energy Research Center (MERC). During his PhD, he also worked as a researcher in MERC and involved in so many industrial projects. After completion of his Ph.D. He joined the Tehran University as a postdoctoral research associate in the Department of material engineering. In 2019, he joined Amirkabir University (Tehran Polytechnic) as an adjunct research assistant professor and involved in so many projects about coating and composite. Generally speaking, his research interests lie in the area of plasma spraying, with a focus on splat morphology and new thermal barrier coatings. He also has collaborated actively in multidisciplinary materials science, particularly surface science, anti-corrosion coating and composite materials. Dr. Pakseresht authored two books titled production, properties, and application of high-temperature coatings and Handbook of research on tribology in coating and surface treatment in IGI Global, USA. He also authored a book titled Physical chemistry and thermodynamic of materials (in Persian). He has published more than 60 journal papers, 5 patents and 5 international book chapters which were cited 2400 times (h-index 27) until 2023. He is a member of the editorial board and reviewer of more than 10 international scientific journals. Dr. Kamalan Kirubaharan Amirtharaj Mosas is a researcher at Alexander Dubcek University in Trencin, Slovakia, developing superalloy coatings for high temperature applications. His most recent findings are the design and development of multilayer diffusion barrier coatings based on Ni/YSZ to minimize corrosion and high temperature oxidation in superalloys for nuclear vitrification components. He has a background in ceramic coatings for corrosion and high temperature applications, ceramic matrix composites, and metal/ceramic thin films created using various physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes. He has prior experience with thermal evaporation, electron beam physical vapor deposition (EBPVD), pulsed laser deposition (PLD), and RF/DC magnetron sputtering systems. During the years 2017-2022, he got 7 sponsored projects from the defence and aerospace sectors, as well as one institutional funding for product development and commercialization. He has 49 papers published with over 400+ citations and 8 Indian patents. He has served as a guest editor for Ceramics-MDPI and Coatings-MDPI journals and as a reviewer for a number of prestigious publications.
