Tribological properties and deformation mechanism of TiAlN coating sliding with various counterbodies

Tribological Properties of Si-Doped Graphite-Like Amorphous Carbon Film of PEEK Rubbing with Different Counterparts in SBF Medium

“…So, the friction coefficient of Si/GLC film against Si 3 N 4 was lower than 100Cr6 in SBF medium. However, formation of such oxides is absent for Al 2 O 3 tribo-pair, which is explained by high oxidation resistance and strong ionic character of Al 2 O 3 ball [33]. The absence of oxide scales is evident Fig.…”

“…Staia et al [37] indicated the effect of the SBF and 3.5 % NaCl solutions on the sliding wear of an a-C:H coating. From the view of the interfacial tribo-chemistry, the corrosive oxidation of 100Cr6 steel tribo-pair occurs as follows [33]:…”

“…Therefore, it revealed that the wear mechanism in ambient air might be adhesive and abrasive wear. However, a large number of corrosion debris could be observed on the wear scar of mating 100Cr6 and Si 3 N 4 balls under SBF-lubricated condition except Al 2 O 3 ball [33,34]. Thus, it can be proposed that the wear mechanism is corrosion wear in SBF environment.…”

Surface Engineering for Tribology

“…In hard coatings, K a -values are typically in between 10 −15 (or lower) and 10 −14 , i.e., very similar to the values of bulk ceramics. As an example, Table 7.5 reports the friction and wear rates of three ball counterbodies dry sliding against a TiAlN coating, deposited by PVD onto a WC-12 % Co substrate [36]. The specific wear rates of the balls and the coating are listed.…”

Bias voltage influence on the mechanical and tribological properties of titaniumaluminum nitride coatings produced by triode magnetron sputtering

“…Additionally, among other characteristics, denser films for lower substrate temperatures and a compact film structure for temperatures of approximately 300 °C were observed. Although TiAlN films have been produced by several techniques, such as cathodic pulsed arc [6], magnetron sputtering [7] and laser ablation [8], no works on the growth of TiAlN by TMS have been reported in the literature. However, it is well known that the physical and chemical properties of films that are grown by magnetron sputtering depend strongly on the processing parameters, such as the pressure, temperature and bias voltage.…”
