TiN coated films were prepared by a reactive ion physical vapor deposition method. In this research, we studied the relationships between textures and friction coefficient, erosion-corrosion resistance and corrosion resistance in textured TiN films. The surface roughness of (115) textured TiN films is lower than that of (111) textured TiN films. The friction coefficient of (115) textured surface is similar with that of (111) textured surface of TiN coated films. The erosion-corrosion and corrosion resistance of (115) textured surface is better than that of (111) textured surface of TiN coated films.

In the present study, the effect of various N 2 gas flow rates on friction coefficient and surface roughness of TiN -coated D2 tool steel was examined by a commercially available cathodic arc physical vapor deposition (CAPVD) technique. A Pin-on-Disc test was carried out to study the Coefficient of friction (COF) versus sliding distance. A surface roughness tester measured the surface roughness parameters. The minimum values for the COF and surface roughness were recorded at a N 2 gas flow rate of 200 sccm. The increase in the COF and surface roughness at a N 2 gas flow rate of 100 sccm was mainly attributed to an increase in both size and number of titanium particles, whereas the increase at 300 sccm was attributed to a larger number of growth defects generated during the coating process. These ideas make it possible to optimize the coating properties as a function of N 2 gas flow rate for specific applications, e.g. cutting tools for automobiles, aircraft, and various mechanical parts.

Plasma physical vapor deposition method was most widely used to prepare ultrafine Al powders. Direct Current Arc Plasma (DCAP) and Radio Frequency Induction Plasma (RFIP) were adopted individually to produce Al powders with different particle size. The micro structure such as grain size, morphology and crystal phase was examined by SEM, TEM and XRD methods. The results show that the Al production by RFIP was better than by DCAP. DCAP has outstanding advantages in producing nanoAl powders with the particle size below 300nm while the RFIP is better to produce Al powders with the particle size 300nm to 1 μm.

Hard nanocrystalline Ni-Co or Ni-W coatings are receiving a growing interest owing to their premium hardness, wear, and corrosion properties for several industrial applications. Furthermore, surface hydrophobicity greatly improves surface corrosion resistance. In this research, the durability of hydrophobic hierarchical NiW electrodeposited film has been evaluated in a high-speed slurry erosion–corrosion (EC) test rig. Two different coatings have been tested: a rough coating obtained in a chloride-based bath (NiWchloride) and a smooth coating obtained in a sulfate-based bath (NiWsulfate). Corrosion behavior over time was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), while surface hydrophobic performance was determined by the sessile drop method. The morphological features of the coatings were assessed by scanning electron microscopy while roughness modification during the EC tests were identified by means of an atomic force microscopy. During static immersion in the aggressive solution, the impedance modulus of the coatings continuously increased due to an increase in the thickness of corrosion products. During the EC test, the impedance modulus of the smooth NiW coating decreased, losing its barrier property. It was observed that the increase in impedance modulus of the hierarchical structure of the rough NiW coating during EC was far greater than that during static immersion. After 64 min of EC, the NiWchloride was able to resume its hydrophobicity property by storing in air; nevertheless, the NiWsulfate, with a loss of approximately 72% in its initial contact angle, was no longer hydrophobic. The results showed improvements in the lifetime of hydrophobic NiW coatings in erosion–corrosion conditions of the hierarchical nanostructure obtained in a chloride-based electroplating bath.

Ti-based coating has been used for biomaterials to improve biocompatibility, mechanical and corrosion properties. Each coating shows unique performance depending on a variety of factors such as coating microstructure and properties as well as in-service conditions. In this study, the microstructure, surface topography, hardness, adhesion and corrosion properties of Ti and TiN films on stainless steel 316L coated by cathodic arc physical vapor deposition process (PVD) were studied. The results showed that the surface roughness of 316L increased after being coated with Ti and TiN film as evidenced by the numerous particles and voids observed on the surface of both films. The hardness of 316L coated with Ti and TiN was increased by approximately 50% and 85%, respectively. Ti and TiN coated samples showed good adhesion strength with the first critical load (LC1) of approximately 10N and 15N, respectively. However, the types of film failure for Ti and TiN were found to be different. Partial delamination with a high degree of plastic deformation was observed for Ti coating, whereas surface cracks were found for TiN coating. This finding is likely attributable to the difference in flow resistance and the amount of particles and voids observed. All samples showed a stable passive region during 7 days of immersion in Ringer’s solution. Ti film showed better corrosion resistance than TiN, which may have been caused by the effect of more voids on TiN surfaces formed by PVD coating.

Abstract Different WC-based coatings have been sprayed by the HVOF process and characterised by different methods. The influence of different powder characteristics on the wear and corrosion performance was investigated. Powder characteristics investigated include: i) average WC particle size, ii) matrix composition and iii) powder grain size distribution. The results show that the coating properties are affected by the different powder characteristics. Small WC particles were found to be beneficial as regards the erosion and erosion-corrosion resistance. An increase of the Cr and Mo content increased the corrosion and erosion-corrosion resistance. Powders with narrow grain size distributions gave coatings of higher quality than powders with wider grain size distributions.

Micro-textured technology which studies in the field of tribology shows that micro-textured surface can effectively improve the situation of friction between the friction interfaces. In this article, micro-textured surface technology has been applied to the cutting tools, in order to study the cutting mechanism of micro-textured carbide tools. The effect of cutting parameters on surface friction characteristics was studied when cutting 45 steel with YT15 cemented carbide tools. The results shown that all surface friction coefficient of the samples got the best value when the feed rate is 0.14mm/r; an appropriate increasing in feed rate can reduce the surface friction coefficient in the low-speed cutting. Throughout the course of the test, the average of the surface friction coefficient of the 4th and the 5th sample tools are better than other tools.

Abstract In order to identify the corrosion properties of three kinds of austenitic stainless steel used in solar power plant, experiments were conducted to test the weight loss after dynamic immersing in molten salt, the corrosion thickness rates per year was obtained, and the surface morphology by SEM and component of corrosive product by EDS were analyzed. The test result showed that the corrosion resistance of 316L and 347H are outstanding, much better than 304. The corrosion resistance order of the three material is 304 <316L< 347H. 304 and 316L can be considered as the candidate materials of low-temperature molten salt storage tank, and 347H can be used as the materials of high-temperature molten salt storage tank and molten salt heat exchanger.

Whirling Electrical Discharge Texturing (WEDT) was developed to create microstructures. It was thought that textured surface with low surface roughness could reduce friction coefficient on the sliding parts. In this research, surface quality was studied to evaluate the quality of WEDT textured surface. Surface quality was evaluated in terms of the surface roughness and surface integrity which were characterized by microstructure, composition and residual stress of the textured surface. The value of Rp and Rv of textured surface after finishing with improved finishing method were obtained as expected for low surface roughness to reduce friction coefficient. In addition, it was clarified that microstructure and composition of textured surface after texturing with WEDT and finishing with lapping-film depend on feed speed. Furthermore, the compressive residual stress was presented on WEDT textured surface and depended on feed speed. It was confirmed that good surface quality of textured surface could be obtained by WEDT.

In this work structured sheet metals were investigated using electrochemical measurement techniques. The main purpose is obtaining fundamental information about the corrosion resistance of structured sheet metals in comparison to smooth sheet metals as well determination of the influence of the structuring process on the corrosion properties. The corrosion resistance of structured sheet metals is affected by manufacturing process. One of the main influence factors is the change of the surface roughness. In this study the low carbon steel DC04 and the stainless steel 304 (X5CrNi18-10) were investi-gated. The electrochemical tests were carried out in 3%-NaCl solution. Potentiodynamic linear polarization was used to determine such electrochemical characteristics as the free corrosion potential, the corrosion current, the pitting and protection potential. Furthermore, the corrosion rate was calculated for smooth and structured sheet metals of the low carbon steel DC04. For the stainless steel 304 the pitting density was estimated. The surface roughness was measured for both materials. The electrochemical corrosion tests show a small difference in the corrosion behaviour of structured and smooth sheet metals. Structured sheet metals have a lower corrosion resistance than smooth sheet metals. The steel DC04 shows the worst corrosion properties at the structure location “negative” in comparison to the structure location “positive”. The corrosion resistance of the stainless steel 304 is better at the structure location “negative” than at the structure location “positive”. Moreover, the results show the correlation between the surface roughness and the corrosion resistance for structured sheet metals.

A theoretical study is carried out to investigate the comprehensive effect of the machined roughness and fabricated textures, by solving the average Reynolds equation coupled with a mass-conservative cavitation algorithm and taking into account asperity contact. We analyzed the influence of surface roughness, which is represented by the combined root-mean-square roughness σ and surface pattern parameter γ on the optimum texture parameters including the dimple depth-over-diameter ratio and area density under hydrodynamic and mixed lubrication conditions. The results show that the effect of surface roughness on load-carrying capacity can be ignored under hydrodynamic lubrication condition. Furthermore, the optimum texture parameters under hydrodynamic lubrication condition and the optimum dimple depth-over-diameter ratio under mixed lubrication condition are determined at minimized friction coefficient, which can be taken as the same for smooth-textured surface and rough-textured surface. The corresponding minimum friction coefficient increases with increasing σ and γ, and decreasing dimple area density under mixed lubrication condition.
