Carbon‐based coatings with different W contents were deposited by direct current magnetron sputtering in reactive and non‐reactive atmospheres. All deposited coatings have compact morphologies with amorphous (tungsten‐free) or nanocrystalline structures (tungsten‐doped). The latter one was indicated by very broad peaks in X‐ray Diffraction spectra in the position of tungsten carbide suggesting W‐carbide nanoparticles embedded in an amorphous carbon matrix. The hardness increased from 10 to 15 GPa with increasing W content. The coatings were tribological tested at dry and lubricated conditions with increasing temperature in a coating/steel configuration. In dry sliding, the friction coefficient increases with the increase of the temperature reaching values higher than 1.0. The friction is significantly lower in lubricated contact using three different oils: poly‐alpha‐olefin, paraffin and olive oil. The olive oil shows promising lubricating properties at the temperature lower than 70°C; however, at higher temperature, the coatings were quickly worn through.

A method is presented which enables a micro-scale abrasion test to be used to measure the wear performance of a coating over a small region, typically of millimetre dimensions, on a curved surface. The method is also applicable to studies of the wear resistance of any bulk material with a surface having complex curvature. The technique is illustrated by measurement of the intrinsic abrasion resistance of thin PVD coatings of TiZrN, ZrNbN and TiNbN on both flat and cylindrical tool steel and flat stainless steel substrates. The ability to measure the wear resistance of both a coating and its substrate, independently of each other and by a single test, is confirmed by experiment. 相似文献

Most mechanical components used for transmission of movement are subjected to repeated impacts or cyclic stress. If these elements are well designed and the materials well chosen, their durability is linked to surface fatigue mechanisms. In order to improve the fatigue behaviour of these parts, hard coatings, such as physical vapour deposition (PVD) or plasma‐assisted chemical vapour deposition (PACVD) coatings, can be appropriate. Unfortunately, such hard coatings cannot be used for elements whose replacement is more difficult than, say, cutting tools. An understanding of failure mechanisms should make it possible to optimise the fatigue behaviour of hard coatings. In order to study the surface fatigue behaviour of thin, hard PVD coatings, a special apparatus has been developed to carry out repeated impacts over a broad range of speeds. The possibility of mapping the fatigue behaviour of different coatings is illustrated through the examples of TiN and TiN/CrN multilayer coatings of different thicknesses deposited on several substrates. 相似文献

The use of PVD coatings in tribological applications becomes more and more widespread. Thus also the need to fully understand the relationships between the intrinsic properties of the coating, the properties of the coating/substrate composite and the tribological performance of the composite in different tribological systems becomes increasingly pressing. One of the tools available for tribological characterization of coatings and coating/substrate composites is scratch testing. In the current paper, Uppsala University presents a selection of results from many years of scratch testing of PVD coated components. Applications range from adhesion assessment and coating quality determination to estimation of coating fracture resistance. Examples in the form of scratch studies of PVD coatings on various high speed steels and tool steels - including failure mode anaiysis in situ SEM - are given. 相似文献

Zirconium nitride (ZrN) thin films were deposited by reactive RF magnetron sputtering on Ti-6Al-4V and Si (100) substrates for potential use in biomedical applications. The tribological behaviour was evaluated against bovine bone in dry condition using a pin-on-disc apparatus. Abrasion is the primary wear mechanism observed in ZrN/bone contact. The corrosion properties were determined through two electrochemical techniques: potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The coatings with reduced oxygen content provided: (i) good resistance against corrosion when exposed to physiological solution and (ii) better anti-bioadhesion against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. 相似文献

The modified 3 in (76.2 mm) David Brown disc machine has been used to investigate the effect on scuffing performance of grinding away various amounts from the surface of nitrided steel discs. The results revealed a systematic deterioration in scuffing resistance as the surface nitrogen concentration decreased, but quantitative correlation between these parameters was hindered by the inadequacies of electron probe X-ray microanalysis as a tool for measuring low nitrogen concentrations. It was concluded that there is no safe depth to which Tenifer-treated (salt-bath nitrided) C15 steel can be ground without impairing its scuffing performance. Other disc tests were carried out to assess the effect on scuffing of phosphate treatment and oil formulation. Results showed that, while phosphate treatment is valuable when running against untreated steel, it is of no benefit against Tenifer-treated steel. On the other hand, the formulation of the lubricant was found to improve the scuffing resistance of Tenifer-treated steel 相似文献

Residual stress in optical plasma vapor deposited coatings must be carefully measured. The topographic inspection of the coatings’ surface at microlevel allows the assessment of its residual stress. In the present work we will report on the optical non-destructive and non-invasive microtopographic inspection of WO3 PVD thin films for residual stress evaluation. The MICROTOP.06.MFC system, an active optical triangulation sensor developed at the Universidade do Minho, was employed. It allows depth resolutions down to 2 nm and lateral resolutions down to 1 μm. The three dimensional coordinate set obtained on the inspection allow the calculation of the stress distribution over the film. 相似文献

Patterned PVD TiN spot coatings on M2 steel: Tribological behaviors under different sliding speeds 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Experiments were performed to investigate systematically the influence of sliding speeds on tribological behaviours of in-lined (IN), staggered (ST) spot-islandic and fully coated (FC) physical vapour deposition (PVD) TiN coatings on M2 steel discs sliding with ASSAB 17 tool steel pins. Results revealed that: (i) the friction coefficients of the individual mating couples generally decreased with the sliding speed and the order in increasing magnitude at each specific sliding speed was FC, IN, and ST pair, respectively and (ii) the wear loss was inversely related to the sliding speed, and the wear loss of both the pin and disc of FC mating pair was the largest with ST the second and IN the third. Relevant mechanisms for the friction and the wear loss are proposed and discussed in this paper. 相似文献

Ti-6Al-4V alloy rubbing against aluminum-bronze 630 was evaluated in this work. High velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) WC-10%Co-4%Cr thermal sprayed and TiN, CrN and DLC physical vapor deposition (PVD) coatings were applied to increase titanium substrate wear resistance. Pin-on-disk tests were performed with a normal force of 5 N and at a speed of 0.5 m/s, with a quantitative comparison between the five conditions studied. Results showed higher wear resistance for Ti-6Al-4V alloy DLC coated and aluminum-bronze 630 tribological pair and that the presence of graphite carbon structure acting as solid lubricant was the main wear preventing mechanism. 相似文献

At present, one of the most important problems in automobile engines and transmission components is due to tribological processes (friction and wear) that in many cases come accompanied by corrosion processes due to the environmental conditions to which these materials are exposed during their lifetime. Both mechanisms can be minimized by means of the development and the application of adequate coatings that combine low friction with a high corrosion and wear resistance.The new tendencies in industrial PVD coatings to improve their properties are focused in the development of new multilayer and nanostructured coatings. These structures allow in a relatively simple way enhancing their tribological properties and the corrosion resistance that can not be reached by means of the traditional monolayer coatings. The background of this type of coatings consists of the stacking up of several layers with good individual tribological and mechanical properties, but every individual layer has a thickness that can be from hundreds of nanometres down to only 5-10 nm. The properties of these nanostructured coatings depend strongly on the thickness modulation of every individual layer.Concerning PVD coatings, the chrome nitride coatings have demonstrated to possess excellent wear resistance properties. In this work, multilayer Cr/CrN coatings with different individual layer thickness have been deposited on substrates of steel F1272 and silicon. The deposition has been carried out by means of the cathodic arc method alternating an atmosphere of pure Ar with a reactive mixture of N2/Ar. The multilayers obtained have been analyzed by means of Glow Discharge Optical Emission Spectroscopy (GD-OES) and in some cases by means of FE-SEM obtaining bilayer (Cr/CrN) periods of the order of 220 and 45 nm. The coating characterization has been complemented with hardness and composition measurements as well as by the performance of several wear and corrosion-wear tests. 相似文献

The dry sliding wear of spray deposited Al–6Cu–Mn alloy was studied as a function of applied load in the range of 5–400 N. The variation of wear rate with applied load was obtained, from which four regions can be observed. On the basis of observations and analyses on the worn surface, the worn subsurface, the wear debris and friction coefficient, wear mechanism in different regions has been identified. Two wear regimes, i.e. mild and severe wear, were displayed in the entire applied load range. The transition from mild to severe wear occurred at a critical load. Mild wear involves three regions in the wear rate vs. load variation, and the wear in each region was controlled by different wear mechanism. With increasing load, the dominant wear mechanism in the period of mild wear displays successively oxidative wear, delamination and subsurface-cracking assisted adhesive wear. Severe wear was operated by the adhesive wear mechanism and the wear debris was formed by the shear fracture of subsurface material of the pin. The transition from mild to severe wear depended on the strength of the material of the pin adjacent to the contact surface and the strain-induced shear stress created by applied load. 相似文献

The tribological behaviour of oil‐lubricated steel‐alumina sliding pairs was investigated using a ball‐on‐disc tribometer at room temperature. Commercial bearing balls of 10 mm diameter were mated to 99.7% Al2O3 discs, and additive‐free mineral oil was fed into the contact area. The sliding speed and the applied normal load were varied, and the initial surface roughness of the Al2O3 disc was altered using different polishing and grinding procedures. The results showed that the surface roughness of the ceramic discs dominated the tribological behaviour under the given experimental conditions. The sliding speed as well as the normal load showed less effect on the friction behaviour, but the amount of wear depended strongly on the normal load. From the results it was concluded that improvement of the surface roughness and optimised surface machining of the ceramic material can be essential for improving the tribological performance for boundary‐lubricated steel‐ceramic sliding pairs. 相似文献

The relationship between the propagation of fatigue cracks and the behaviour of plastic flow in the surface layer was experimentally investigated under lubricated rolling-sliding contact. The test specimen material was medium carbon steel (S45C) with hardness Hv 187 after annealing. Results show that the displacement of plastic flow in the surface layer of the follower increased with increasing number of revolutions. Crack propagation occurred in the surface layer of the follower when the displacement of plastic flow on the centre of the contact reached a saturated value. On the contact surface of the follower, the propagating angle of the fatigue crack was found to be correlated to the angle of plastic flow, which was independent of the slip ratio. The rate of plastic flow increased with increasing slip ratio, resulted in a reduction of fatigue life. The displacement of plastic flow beneath the contact surface could be evaluated from the profile change of the plastic flow on the contact surface. 相似文献

The dry rolling/sliding wear behaviour of Si alloyed carbide free bainitic steel austempered at different temperatures and sliding distances has been evaluated. 60SiCr7 spring steel samples were austempered in a salt bath maintained at 250, 300 and 350 °C respectively for 1 h. Rolling with 5% sliding wear tests were performed using self mated discs for three different test cycles, namely 6000, 18,000 and 30,000 cycles. The aim was to study the wear performance of the 60SiCr7 steel with a carbide-free microstructure containing different amounts of retained austenite. An in-depth microstructural characterization has been carried out before and after the wear tests in order to link the wear behaviour to the microstructure of each sample. The wear resistance has been expressed by means of the specific wear calculated from the mass loss after the tests. The worn surfaces were analysed by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Microhardness profiles were also obtained in order to analyse strain-hardening effects beneath the contact surfaces. The results indicate that the material with highest hardness—the one austempered at 250 °C—exhibited the lowest wear rate in every case. It was also observed that the hardness increment and thickness of the hardened layer increases with increasing the austempering temperature and number of test cycles. Finally, the results appear to indicate that the initial roughness of the samples has no major effect in the wear rate of the samples above 2500 cycles. The higher wear performance of the sample austempered at 250 °C has been attributed to its superior mechanical properties provided by its finer microstructure. It has been evidenced that all samples undergo the TRIP phenomenon since, after wear; no retained austenite could be detected by XRD. 相似文献

The frictional behaviour of thin metallic films on silicon substrates sliding against 52100 steel balls is presented. The motivation of this work is to identify an optimum film thickness that will result in low friction under relatively low loads for various metallic films. Dry sliding friction experiments on silicon substrates with soft metallic coatings (silver, copper, tin and zinc) of various thickness (1–2000 nm) were conducted using a reciprocating pin-on-flat type apparatus under a controlled environment. A thermal vapour deposition technique was used to produce pure and smooth coatings. The morphology of the films was examined using an atomic force microscope, a non-contact optical profilometer and a scanning electron microscope. Following the sliding tests, the sliding tracks were examined by various surface characterization techniques and tools. The results indicate that the frictional characteristics of silicon are improved by coating the surface with a thin metallic film, and furthermore, an optimum film thickness can be identified for silver, copper and zinc coatings. In most cases ploughing marks could be found on the film which suggests that plastic deformation of the film is the dominant mode by which frictional energy dissipation occurred. Based on this observation, the frictional behaviour of thin metallic coatings under low loads is discussed and friction coefficients are correlated with an energy based friction model. 相似文献

A study has been made of the reciprocating dry sliding wear behaviour of polyamide 66 and polycarbonate containing glass fibres, ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE/2% Si oil). Studies have been conducted at sliding loads of 2 kg and 10 kg at an average velocity of 0.33 m s−1 against a hardened stainless steel counterface with a surface roughness of 0.3 μm.It has been shown that additions of 10–15% of filler/reinforcement lead to greatly improved sliding wear behaviour. PTFE/2% Si oil filled polyamide 66 has been shown to have the best overall wear performance whilst the high glass filled variants of polyamide 66 and polycarbonate have the best combination of wear resistance and mechanical strength. These findings are discussed with reference to composite constitution and properties, thermal effects and counterface interactions. Explanations are advanced to account for the differences in behaviour inter alia the composite materials. 相似文献

Under combined rolling and sliding materials can experience millions of cycles as well as complex loading and slip conditions, which can dramatically affect their friction and wear behaviour. It was shown that for a carbon black‐filled natural rubber compound in combined rolling and sliding contact with a smooth alumina coated disk, the traction coefficient, as a function of slip percent, was dependent upon the normal load and independent of rolling velocity. The wear rate of this material pair was found to be independent of slip percentage as well as rolling velocity but dependent upon sliding distance. The wear rate was found to be approximately the same for all tested cases (K ~ 1 × 10−4 mm3·Nm−1). The worn profiles of the ball specimens showed that this wear occurred preferentially on the left side (inner radius) of the contacting area. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Thin hard coatings on metal or ceramic surfaces offer a large spectrum of improvements of the friction and/or wear behaviour of tribosystems. The development of coatings and the tailoring of their properties require test methods providing information about their friction and wear behaviour. A new wear test standard (ASTM) is under development for the evaluation of friction and wear quantities for sliding motions using the reciprocating sliding mode. The applicability of this test method to coated specimens was checked by testing uncoated and coated steel specimens in contact with alumina balls, whereby lower loads were used than in the ASTM proposal for bulk materials. Additionally, the influence of the relative humidity of the surrounding air at room temperature on friction and wear results was examined. 相似文献
