Comparative tribology studies of hard ceramic and composite metal-DLC coatings in sliding friction conditions
(1995)The design of anti-friction coatings able to perform well in different wear conditions without lubricants requires a combination of adequate hardness and toughness, good adhesion, a low friction coefficient and a low wear ...

Article
Composite DLC-metal/metal-carbide coatings produced by electron enhanced unbalanced magnetron sputtering
(1997)Composite coatings consisting of metal containing diamond like carbons were produced by unbalanced magnetron sputtering in a closed field magnetic configuration. Targets of Pta and W were poisoned with acetylene during the ...

The effect of boron additions on the tribological behaviour of TiN coatings produced by electron-beam evaporative PVD
(1999)TiN coatings containing small amounts of boron were synthesized by electron beam evaporating a Ti-B alloy material from a single crucible source into a plasma comprising Ar or an Ar/N2 mixture at a substrate temperature ...

The nanostructure, wear and corrosion performance of arc-evaporated CrBxNy nanocomposite coatings
(2009)The composition, nanostructure, tribological and corrosion behaviour of reactive arc evaporated CrBxNy coatings have been studied and compared to CrN. The CrBxNy coatings were deposited on a commercial Oerlikon Balzers RCS ...

Structure, mechanical and tribological properties of sputtered TiAlBN thin films
(1999)TiAlBN films were produced by simultaneously sputtering from TiAl and TiB2 targets in Ar/N2 mixtures at a substrate temperature of 150 °C. The goal of this investigation was to study the influence of the nitrogen content ...

Studies of the tribological and mechanical properties of laminated CrC-SiC coatings produced by r.f. and d.c. sputtering
(1997)Multilayer CrC-SiC coatings were produced by both direct current and radio frequency sputtering of Cr and Si targets in an Ar-C2H2 atmosphere. Coatings of constant thickness of about 4 μm, but with the number of layers ...

Wear behaviour of carbon-containing tungsten coatings prepared by reactive magnetron sputtering
(1999)W(1-x)C(x) coatings (with x being in the range of 0.05-0.19) were deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering on to AISI 316 stainless-steel substrates in order to study the influence of the carbon content on the tribological ...
