Abstract:
In the starting of para 2 of Introduction: micron-sized counterparts [22–23] may be read as Nanocrystalline materials are classified by a physical dimension less than 100 nm [16–21]. The coatings developed from these nanostructured materials can offer several better properties such as hardness, ductility, corrosion and wear resistance in comparison with their conventional micron-sized counterparts [22–23].
