In this work, we examine the receding contact between a homogeneous elastic layer and a half-plane substrate reinforced by a functionally graded coating. The material properties of the coating are allowed to vary exponentially along its thickness. A distributed traction load applied over a finite segment of the layer surface presses the layer and the coated substrate against each other. It is further assumed that the receding contact between the layer and the coated substrate is frictionless. In the absence of body forces, Fourier integral transforms are used to convert the governing equations and boundary conditions of the plane receding contact problem into a singular integral equation with the contact pressure and contact size as unknowns. Gauss–Chebyshev quadrature is subsequently employed to discretize both the singular integral equation and the force equilibrium condition at the contact interface. An iterative algorithm based on the method of steepest descent has been proposed to numerically solve the system of algebraic equations, which is linear for the contact pressure but nonlinear for the contact size. Extensive case studies are performed with respect to the coating inhomogeneity parameter, geometric parameters, material properties, and the extent of the indentation load. As a result of the indentation, the elastic layer remains in contact with the coated substrate over only a finite interval. Exterior to this region, the layer and the coated substrate lose contact. Nonetheless, the receding contact size is always larger than that of the indentation traction. To validate the theoretical solution, we have also developed a finite-element model to solve the same receding contact problem. Numerical results of finite-element modeling and theoretical development are compared in detail for a number of parametric studies and are found to agree very well with each other.

Cellulose solution was used for coating and it was prepared by dissolving pulp cellulose in Urea-Thiourea-NaOH-Water solvent system. Reactive Red 240 dye was used for dyeing the coated as well as control cotton fabric. The effect of cellulose coating on the dyeing properties of cotton fabric was studied by measuring K/S values of the coated substrate at various concentrations of cellulose and dye. K/S value decreased after coating cellulose on the surface of cotton fabric. The lightness of cotton fabric increased after cellulose coating. SEM micrographs revealed that coated cellulose was attached to cotton fibers. Tensile strength increased after cellulose coating.

Calcined and dispersible titanium-doped hydroxyapatite (Ti-HAp) nanoparticles at different [Ti/(Ca+Ti)] atomic ratios (0.3, 0.4, and 0.5) were prepared using an anti-sintering method. The Ti substitution ratios of the HAp structures in the feed of Ti-HAp preparation were approximately 80%. Ti-HAp nanoparticles were coated on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) sheets through polyacrylic acid graft-polymers. The PET substrate was almost completely covered with monolayer nanoparticles (over 95%). Antibacterial activity of coated Ti-HAp was calculated from the survival ratio of the bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, after ultraviolet (UV) irradiation at 312 nm and 6.4 mW/cm2 for 30 s. The number of S. aureus on the Ti-HAp coated substrate decreased by 43% compared to those on the original PET and normal HAp coatings as negative controls. The antibacterial activity of Ti-HAp coated substrate was, furthermore, no statistically difference with TiO2 sheet as a positive control.

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) was coated on 316L stainless steel (SS) substrate through a spin coating technique to enhance its corrosion resistance properties in hydrochloric acid (HCl) and nitric acid (HNO3) medium. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed the morphology of the coated and uncoated substrates and showed a uniform and crack-free PTFE coating on 316L SS substrate, while a damaged surface with thick corrosive layers was observed after the electrochemical test on the uncoated sample. However, an increased concentration of HCl and HNO3 slightly affected the surface morphology by covering the corrosive pits. An atomic force microscope (AFM) showed that the average surface roughness on 316L SS and PTFE coating was 26.3 nm and 24.1 nm, respectively. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) was used for the compositional analysis, which confirmed the presence of PTFE coating. The micro Vickers hardness test was used to estimate the hardness of 316L SS and PTFE-coated substrate, while the scratch test was used to study the adhesion properties of PTFE coating on 316L SS. The anticorrosion measurements of 316L SS and PTFE-coated substrates were made in various HCl and HNO3 solutions by using the electrochemical corrosion test. A comparison of the corrosion performance of PTFE-coated substrate with that of bare 316L SS substrate in HCl medium showed a protection efficiency (PE) of 96.7%, and in the case of HNO3 medium, the PE was 99.02%, by slightly shifting the corrosion potential of the coated sample towards the anodic direction.
