In order to improve the quality of coatings, a novel principle for deposition of strengthening coatings with high thermomechanical properties has been developed at Pysarenko Institute for Problems of Strength NAS of Ukraine (IPS). It consists in replacing a conventional continuous layer with a discontinuous mosaic-discrete structure. Realization of this principle in fabrication of coatings has permitted an increase in their adhesion and corrosion stability thanks to restriction of maximal stress
