WEAR OF Si OR B DOPED AMORPHOUS CARBON COATINGS
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2016, Vol 268, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper describes a complex wear research on DLC (amorphous carbon) doped with boron (B) and silicone (Si). The tests were carried out in two different sliding systems: flat–on–flat (ring contact, unidirectional sliding) and ball–on–flat (reciprocating sliding). Water and medical saline solutions were used as lubricants. A comparative analysis of the results revealed differences in the initiation and progress of wear and the endurance with regard to coating’s composition, lubricant and contact geometry. The results obtained from the tests show the influence of the additive element on the wear resistance and the high dependency of coatings’ performance in the type of contact and of the lubricant used. In all cases analysed, the use of medical saline solution resulted in accelerated wear or an increased result scatter in comparison to pure water lubrication.<br/><br/>
