EVALUATION OF DLC BASED COATINGS RESISTANCE TO INSTANTANEOUS DAMAGE UNDER SLIDING FRICTION CONDITIONS WITH DISTILLED WATER OR SALINE LUBRICATION
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2009, Vol 226, Issue 4
Abstract
As a result of research on the evaluation of tribological properties of ultra thin DLC based ceramic coatings in flat sliding contacts lubricated with distilled water or saline a series of instantaneuos damage resistance tests was carried out. The research was targeted at water lubricated bearings and bio – medical applications, thus DLC coatings were deposited on annealed stainless steel substrate. Two types of coatings were used: hydrogenated unmodified DLC and tungsten modified DLC (DLC – W). In the paper results are presented of tests carried out to determine the p – v input parameters envelope for both coatings and both lubricants dividing mild wear of coatings from instantaneous damage leading to intense delamination of the coating. Results are given in the form of approximated boundary condition curves.<br/><br/>

THE INFLUENCE OF REDUCING TEMPERATURE ON CHANGING YOUNG’S MODULUS AND THE COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION OF SELECTED SLIDING POLYMERS
For the polymeric materials, changing of the temperature causes changes in mechanical and tribological properties of sliding pairs. The goal of the present study was to determine the change in Young's modulus and kinetic...
INFLUENCE OF SURFACE LASER TEXTURING ON FRICTION AND WEAR OF PTFE DURING SLIDING AGAINST STEEL
The paper presents research and analysis of PTFE wear during cooperation with steel. The surface of steel elements was subjected to laser texture. Three different patterns of texture were applied to the surface of steel...
