Associate Professor Steven Matthews

Steven’s PhD in the Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering, The University of Auckland (2004), focused on the high temperature erosion-corrosion mechanisms of Cr3C2-NiCr high velocity thermal sprayed coatings. From 2004–2007 he was employed as a R&D Manager for Bekaert Advanced Coatings, Belgium. His focus was on the development of sputtering targets for the large area glass and electronics industries. This incorporated projects on materials as diverse as Zn, Si, TiO2 and novel electronic materials, that spanned from powder feedstock preparation, industrial thermal spray production, and failure analysis.
