Index.
Professor Lech Pawlowski has been a Professor of Surface
Engineering at Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Lille
(ENSCL) in France since 1999. His research focuses on thermal
spraying and laser treatment of different materials, and currently
he is working with suspension plasma sprayed ceramic coatings. He
obtained his diploma from the Wroclaw University of Technology,
Poland in 1974 by studying Electronic Technology. After completing
his PhD on vacuum plasma sprayed copper and tantalum coatings in
1978, he obtained a postdoctoral position in France, and by 1985
had obtained a DSc through studying thermophysical properties of
anilox and corona rollers.
He has held research appointments at Universities in Germany,
Australia and Italy, and currently lectures on Surface Treatment,
Technology of Powders Manufacturing, and Industrial Chemistry in
France. He has lectured at the Conservatoire National of Arts et
Métiers, and the Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Arts et de Métiers in
Paris. Professor Pawlowski is the author of two textbooks on
thermal spraying and surface engineering, and the author or
co-author of more than 60 journal papers as well as numerous
contributions to scientific conferences. He works on the journal
Surface and Coatings Technology and organizes meetings on thermal
spraying at Lille.
