Titanium nitride, also known as TiNite or TiN, is a chemical compound that is commonly used in coating objects. Titanium nitride thin film gives the coated object a gold color. It is widely used because it is less expensive than most other compounds with similar chemical properties. There are numerous commercial variants of titanium nitride, but...Continue Reading

White meals are an important category of metals used in various industrial applications, just as alloys are. An old use of white metals is their referencing in the antique trade for describing items suspected of containing silver but not hallmarked. As an example, the term “white metal” is used in the British fine art trade...Continue Reading

Crushing metals into fine particles produces metal powders used in 3D printing. Manufacturers can use powder for 3D printing operations and processes that produce metallic parts. It is also known as additive manufacturing and involves making new parts or products layer-by-layer. The kind of metal powder used and the 3D printing process applied determine the...Continue Reading

In the sputtering process, it is important to protect the sputter targets from damages, and a very good way to achieve this is by subjecting the sputter targets to bonding services. In this post, we’ll dive deeper into the meaning and importance of target bonding services, as well as the different types of target bonding...Continue Reading

3D printing has evolved over the past few years, meaning that several things have changed, particularly, the type of products obtainable at the end of the process. The products of 3D printing are as diverse as the many materials used in printing them. Before 3D printing can be realized, you must send a detailed image...Continue Reading

Jewelry pieces are decorative items such as rings, necklaces, bracelets, and brooches made from special metals and worn for adornment. Pieces of jewelry are made from different kinds of special metals and alloys. A lot of these metals and special alloys have been used over the years. Some of these metals have stood out due...Continue Reading

Optical coatings are widely used to change the reflectivity of the lens surface, from glasses to high-power laser applications. The core technology of femtosecond laser coating is that its coating has the characteristics of low dispersion and high damage threshold. This article talks about three commonly used sputter coating techniques, and introduces the physical principles...Continue Reading
