7075-T6 aluminium alloy is commonly adopted in high performance structures and components. Its fatigue behaviour is however dramatically worsened by exposure to aggressive environments. The deposition of PVD coatings, which are commonly adopted to increase the surface properties of structural elements in terms of hardness, contact fatigue and wear resistance, could be beneficial also for the fatigue behaviour of a 7075-T6 substrate in an aggressive environment. In the present work, Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) PVD coated 7075-T6 specimens immersed in methanol have been analysed, by means of step-loading rotating bending fatigue tests (R = -1) at 2·105 cycles. Coated specimens were tested in laboratory air for comparison, and uncoated polished samples were studied in both the environments to obtain reference values. SEM micrographs of the fracture surfaces were taken to investigate the effects of the corrosive environment on the failure mechanism.

Rotating bending and inverse rotating bending are the two different forms of fatigue. The application of regular blanking for brass under extra-low cycle inverse rotating bending fatigue was investigated. The principle of inverse rotating bending fatigue was explained at first. And then the experiment of inverse rotating bending fatigue was made in special equipment designed by the authors. Several problems, i.e. the relations of the quantities such as cycle times of fracture, the strain amplitude near the notch tip and fracture toughness of fatigue to the presetting deflection, the effects of depth and tip radius of notch on the cycle times of fracture, were discussed with the helps of experiment. Finally, The relation of depth of crack propagation to cycle times were discussed also. The suitable parameters of inverse rotating bending fatigue for blanking of brass were obtained.
