“…This coating process works better with a less volatile, safer solvent such as water, which is easily absorbed by the process. Compared to other deposition methods such as spray pyrolysis, sol–gel, dip coating, ultrasonic deposition, photochemical deposition, pulsed laser deposition, and spin coating [ 36 ], the used method has the following advantages such as a significantly reduced amount of coating applied, minimal weight gain, increased process efficiency and yield, and significantly reduced processing time due to suitable film-forming polymers and improved formulation flexibility [ 37 ].…”

This paper deals with the design and development of a silver–polyester thick film sensor and associated system for the wear-out detection of single-point cutting tools for low-duty cycle machining operations. Conventional means of wear-out detection use dynamometers, accelerometers, microphones, acoustic emission sensors, thermal infrared cameras, and machine vision systems that detect tool wear during the process. Direct measurements with optical instruments are accurate but affect the machining process. In this study, the use of a thick film sensor to detect wear-out for aa real-time low-duty machining operation was proposed to eliminate the limitations of the current methods. The proposed sensor monitors the tool condition accurately as the wear acts directly on the sensor, which makes the system simple and more reliable. The effect of tool temperature on the sensor during the machining operation was also studied to determine the displacement/deformation of tracing and the polymer substrate at different service temperatures. The proposed tool wear detection system with the silver–polyester thick film sensor mounted directly on the cutting tool tip proved to be highly capable of detecting the tool wear with good reliability.

“…A nip roller squeezes the surplus material off the substrate surface to create a smooth thin film. 48 The dip-coating technique is handy for parts with complex geometries and curved surfaces, which other spraying methods cannot coat. Although automatic machines are the most convenient, hand dipping works well and speeds up the bonding of the coating onto the substrate.…”

Vanadium dioxide (VO2) and many binary compounds of vanadium can transform from a semiconducting state to a metallic state under the influence of temperature or light. The transformation is triggered by modifications in the oxide's crystalline structure, often initiated by changes in its light-sensing and electrical attributes. This ability makes them suitable for smart coatings, electronic switches, self-cleaning surfaces, window glass, and many more. These potential applications have prompted tremendous interest in VO2thin films, focusing on their fabrication and application. This article reviews current fabrication methods for VO2thin films, the potential application of their thermochromic and photochromic properties in self-cleaning coatings, the challenges facing their application, and some remedies devised to address the challenges. The various challenges facing its different synthesis and fabrication methods are also highlighted. First, the different transitional phases of VO2and routes to transform from one stage to the other are presented.

Lithium-ion battery (LIB) systems provide a very promising range of power supply systems for diverse applications like electric vehicles, hybrid plug-in electric vehicles, grid storage systems, and microelectronics. Nevertheless, the features of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), which include energy density and power, cycle lifetime, safety, as well as cost, must be enhanced in order to achieve all these feasible applications. Atomic layer deposition (ALD), as a result of its unique benefits above other thin-film methods of deposition, emerges as a very useful approach for use in improving the efficiency of LIBs. This review summarizes ALD's advanced successes in designing new nanostructured solid-state electrolytes and electrode materials, as well as the adjustment of the interfaces of electrodes and electrolytes through the application of surface coatings for the avoidance of undesirable side reactions to attain maximum adequate performance of the electrode. Also covered are ideas for the potential advancement of ALD studies and technology for the applications of LIBs. This review paper is anticipated to furnish researchers within the LIB and ALD fields with valuable information that would encourage much more extensive research on the use of ALD to produce new generation LIBs.Novelty Statement: This review presents the recent advancements in electrode materials as well as some new electrode fabrication processes for Li-ion batteries. Certain prospective materials with improved electrochemical performance have also been reported, along with a review of the recent precursors utilized for the ALD of battery materials. The efficiency of the ALD process in providing sufficient solutions to the problems associated with the utilization of Lithium-ion batteries is also discussed.
