SPONSORED RESEARCH PROJECTS:
| Title | Modernisation and removal of Obsolescence in the Manufacturing Technology-II and Strength of Materials Laboratory |
|---|---|
| Objective | The main objective of the proposed research project is to develop nano coatings and microhardness over the materials with hardness of metallographic structure, from the most soft material to the most hard material. |
| Sponsoring Agency | AICTE- MODORB |
| Principal Investigator | Dr. A JEGAN, Department of Mechanical Engineering |
| Period | 2019 – 2021 |
| Title | Development of Anti-corrosive coatings and testing (Salt spray test chamber) |
| Objective | The objective of the proposed work is to develop new combinations of nano-coatings over different material. One of the major problems faced by metals is corrosion; it gradually deteriorates the materials by chemical or electrochemical reaction. In this proposal new combinations of coatings are to be coated and the corrosion resistance are to be tested by salt spray testing chamber. |

| Title | STUDIES ON THE PULSE PLATING OF SILVER FOR THE JEWELLERY INDUSTRY |
| Objective | The main objective of the proposed research project is to significantly reduce the consumption of silver during plating of silver jewellery thereby resulting in significant reduction in the production cost. In addition, the project also aims at reducing the production time as well as improving the quality of the coatings. |
