The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Starfire Industries to develop and test plasma generated coatings intended to be corrosion/wear resistant, as well as demonstrating improved bonding strength. The coatings would be tested on multi-material automotive joints, though the process would be developed so as to be applicable to a wide range of transportation industries.
