  Coatings on metal
(ultradiamond90)

Product
Improvements
Reduce
Wear, as much as 1.5 - 10 times
Corrosion
Release problems during molding

Increase
Hardness, as much as 1.3 - 3 times
Coating-to-substrate bond, as much as complete adhesion
Mold life, as much as 9 times

Manufacturing
Improvements
Reduce
Thickness of coating, due to increased hardness
Need to change dimension specifications of product, due to thinness of coating (in most cases, no specification change is needed)
