“…An approach to reduce the friction under dry and starved lubrication conditions is to deposit DLC on rubber. A lot of studies, from deposition techniques to DLC composition on various rubber materials, such as nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR), fluoroelastomer (FKM), and ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber (EPDM), has been done by a Japanese group of Nakahigashi [3,4], Takikawa et al [5][6][7], a Dutch group of Pei and Bui et al [8][9][10][11][12], and other researchers [13,14]. MoS 2 as a solid lubricant is mostly employed with hard surfaces (e.g., metals, ceramics) [15][16][17].…”

Abstract:The potential of the combination of hard and soft coating on elastomers was investigated. Diamond-like carbon (DLC), molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) and composite coatings of these two materials with various DLC/MoS 2 ratios were deposited on four elastomeric substrates by means of the magnetron sputtering method. The microstructures, surface energy of the coatings, and substrates were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and contact angle, respectively. The chemical composition was identified by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). A ball on disc configuration was used as the model test, which was performed under dry and lubricated conditions. Based on the results from the model tests, the best coating was selected for each substrate and subsequently verified in component-like test. There is not one coating that is optimal for all substrates. Many factors can affect the coatings performance. The topography and the rigidity of the substrates are the key factors. However, the adhesion between coatings and substrates, and also the coating processes, can impact significantly on the coatings performance.

“…Additionally, the W-C film was employed as the interlayer of the DLC film, and adhesion of the DLC film to the Si substrate was investigated. The W-C films and DLC films were deposited by using a filtered pulse arc deposition (FPAD) system 12, 13, 14 and a T-shaped filtered arc deposition (T-FAD) system 15,16 , respectively. The FPAD method and T-FAD method are two variants of filtered arc deposition (FAD) methods 17,18 .…”

Abstract. Materials with poor adhesion present a problem for the application of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films. As a method for solving this problem, there is a technique that deposits an interlayer of metal between the DLC film and substrate. A tungsten carbide film (W-C film) is used as the interlayer. In this study, the effect of introducing the W-C interlayer on the adhesion of the DLC film was investigated. The W-C films were deposited using two types of cemented tungsten carbides (WCs) as the cathode, one containing Co (WC-Co) and the other containing Ti (WC-Ti), as a binder for forming the cathode shape. It is necessary to control the film thickness of the interlayer to introduce the interlayer to the DLC film. The film thickness control of W-C films became possible by using a discharge counter. DLC films were deposited using a bias voltage of -100 V. The film thicknesses of the W-C interlayer and DLC film at the time of investigating adhesion were 30 nm and 300 nm, respectively. The result of the tape-peeling test showed that the adhesion of the DLC film was improved by employing the W-C interlayer. In addition, adhesion was further improved by removing the oxide layer on the intermediate layer.
