Discover all our lessons on the performance-enhancing properties of tribology coatings for mobility applications


Lesson 1: How are tribology coatings designed?
Available on 4. August 2026
In this lesson, we explore how coatings for mobility applications are designed, the factors that must be considered during development, and why DLC coatings provide key advantages for specific application requirements.


Lesson 2: Highly resilient DLC coatings for extreme applications
Available on 11. August 2026
We are diving into highly resilient DLC coatings designed for demanding mobility applications where components are exposed to high loads, increased torque, changing lubrication conditions, and rough counter surfaces.


Lesson 3: Tribology coatings for hydrogen applications
Available on 18. August 2026
We'll explore challenges like corrosion resistance, long-term reliability, stable friction behaviour, and protection against hydrogen diffusion which tribological coatings face in applications involving alternative fuels.


Lesson 4: Coating solutions for aerospace
Available on 25. August 2026
We take a closer look at coating solutions for aerospace and how coating solutions help protect critical parts against wear, corrosion, oxidation, erosion, and fatigue while supporting higher efficiency and longer service life.


Lesson 5: Coating solutions for radar antennas
Available on 1. September 2026
In this lesson, we explore the future of autonomous driving and the role of radar antennas in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems. These critical components require coating solutions that combine strong adhesion, high electrical conductivity, corrosion protection, uniform layer distribution, and cost-effective manufacturing at scale.
