The n-SiO2/FeS solid lubrication composite coating is prepared by means of the comprehensive treatment process of gridded laser quenching, low temperature ion sulfuration and vacuum impregnation technology. The tribological properties of n-SiO2/FeS solid lubrication composite coating are investigated under the condition of dry sliding, and the lubrication mechanisms are also preliminary discussed. The experiment results reveal that the friction coefficient of the coating is in the range of 0.065~0.10 when tested in 4067 minutes. Furthermore, its wear rate is only 6% of FeS solid lubrication duplex coating. This is testified that the n-SiO2/FeS solid lubrication composite coating is durable with low friction coefficient and wear resistance.

The influence of MoS2 lubrication phase on the tribological properties of the Ni60A/MoS2 composite coating was conducted on UMT-2 micro-wear testing machine (USA), discussing the self-lubricating effect and mechanism. The result shows that with the increasing content of MoS2, the friction coefficient of the coating which changed with the increasing content of the MoS2 presents firstly decreases then increases, and the value reach the minimum when the quality percent of MoS2 wrapped with Nickel is 35%. Low-friction property of the Ni60A/MoS2 composite coating is due to the forming of MoS2 lubricating film in friction surface. The decreasing of the friction coefficient of the coating is in proportion to the coverage area of MoS2 lubricating film.

Low friction thin layers are an excellent alternative for conventional coatings. They provide increased life of the elements, to which they were applied, due to enhancing the hardness or chemical and electrochemical resistance. They help to avoid the cracks, oxidation, as well as possible structural changes during the element's work. However, they primarily improve tribological properties by increasing wear resistance and reducing the friction. This also applies to components operating under variable conditions such as load, speed, temperature. The presented article analyzes the properties of various low-friction thin layers deposited by vacuum methods on the steel substrates. DLC, TiC, MoS2, CrCN thin layers were chosen, as they achieve the lowest possible coefficient of friction. In the framework of this work the measurements of adhesion of the investigated layers to the substrate as well as the friction coefficient, chemical analysis, microstructure and topographic analysis of the low-friction layers were carried out.

The Tribological properties of FeCrNi/CBN composite coating with spraying high velocity arc is studied. Images and components and cross-section microstructure of coatings are analyzed by the means of SEM, and EDS etc. This research indicates that FeCrNi/CBN composite coatings have typical layered structure characteristic and high bond strength and hardness. Friction coefficient of coatings at room and high temperatures have “Run-up” period. With the increase of temperature, friction coefficient of coatings becomes low and wearing capacity of coatings becomes high. The adding of CBN powder highly improved the wearing capacity of coatings.

AbstractDiamond like carbon (DLC) coatings have attracted great attention for use in various applications in automobile industry and machinery because they have excellent properties such as low friction coefficient and ultra high strength. The low friction coefficient of DLC comes from anti-adhesion with other materials, smooth surface, lubrication of graphite structure at the contacting point of films, and the hydrogen content of the films. Many researches have been focused on the microstructure effects on the tribological properties of DLC films but few have been reported on the effect of hydrogen content. In this study, the effect of hydrogen content on the friction coefficient of DLC films has been investigated.DLC films have been deposited on D2 steel by plasma enhanced CVD (Pulsed DC PECVD) method with different precursor gas of C2H2and CH4and different gas pressure. The effects of gas composition on the hydrogen content in DLC films and the resulting tribological properties have been reviewed. Si interlayer was deposited on D2 to improve adhesion of DLC on steel substrates. The characteristics of microstructure were evaluated by Raman spectroscope and composition was measured by RBS and EDS. The tribological behaviors of DLC films were investigated using ball on disk tribometer. The hardness of films was examined by nano-indenter. The failure mechanism of DLC deposited on steel substrates was examined using optical microscope and SEM/EDS. The results showed that the friction coefficient of DLC films deposited with C2H2was 0.06 and that of the film with CH4was 0.15. The friction coefficient improved with decreasing hydrogen content in DLC films.

Abstract Tribological properties of a-C:H coatings has been investigated in various friction conditions. It is clear that temperature and mating materials give effects on tribological properties. In this study, we especially focus on the effect of mating material on its tribological properties of a-C:H coatings. Ball-on-disk friction test is conducted between a-C:H coating and 5 kinds of mating material, which is SiC, SiC(O)_800 (SiC oxidized at 800°C), SiC(O)_1050°C, SiC(O)_1300°C, and Quartz glass. It is found that a-C:H coatings shows low friction coefficient and low specific wear rate when O/Si ratio of the element content of mating material is 2, in other words, mating material is SiO2. In the wear scar of a-C:H coating after friction test with SiC, severe damage was confirmed. It is considered that a-C:H coating and SiO2 show low adhesion even at high temperature, which leads low friction and wear. Compared SiC(O) with Quartz, the friction coefficients with a-C:H coatings are respectively 0.013 and 0.038. Even though SiC(O) and Quartz are both SiO2, the tribological properties are different. On the wear track of SiC(O), transferred things from a-C:H coating are confirmed.

Solid lubrication film formed by tribo-coating, which deposits a solid lubricant by evaporation to the contact interface during friction in vacuum, gives low friction coefficient below 0.03 that can not be observed by any other solid lubricants of soft metals. The tribo-coating film formed on the pin has nano-order composite structure which the crystalline indium of nano size are distributed in an amorphous matrix of silicon oxide and chromium oxide. Because of the nano composite structure, a very thin indium film is formed without break down like conventional pre-coated thin film. The thinner indium film can give smaller value of friction coefficient than that of conventional solid lubricant.

Abstract Providing advanced coating solutions for high speed dry machining applications is gaining importance by the day especially with the increasing employment of difficult-to-machine materials in niche areas. Taking into account the recent demands in developing such coatings, in the present study, a novel low friction coefficient nanocomposite coating: CrAlSiN/G-CrAlSiCN (G: Gradient) was developed which can be used in high speed or dry machining applications. Initially, CrAlSiN nanocomposite coating and carbon incorporated CrAlSiN coating were deposited separately using the cylindrical cathodic arc PVD technique. The as deposited films were comprehensively analyzed to determine their adhesion strength, phase composition, sliding wear properties (friction coefficient), hardness and tool life. Preliminary observations revealed that the films did not show evidence of diamond-like carbon (DLC) formation (from Raman analysis). Further, an increase in the carbon content led to a steep decrease in the adhesion strength. This result persuaded a study on developing a novel coating with gradient carbon architecture which would retain the properties of a nanocomposite whilst supporting the nanocomposite under-layer by reducing the coefficient of friction. In comparison to the CrAlSiN nanocomposite coating and a standard DLC coating, the novel gradient carbon coating showed superior tribological properties along with a better tool life. This study marks the first such attempt at studying the influence of carbon incorporation to the CrAlSiN nanocomposite coating on improving the overall mechanical and tribological properties of the coating architecture (CrAlSiN/G-CrAlSiCN) for dry machining applications.
