The wear resistance, conductivity and mechatronic reliability of the films were studied by contact atomic force microscope (AFM), electric force microscope (EFM) and conductive AFM. The failure mechanism of pits formed and the reason for conductivity changed of DLC films were examined.展开更多

The coatings were deposited on ductile cast iron samples of different composition by electroless method EFTTOM NICKEL with addition of strengthening nanodiamond particles （2-4 nm）, The samples were prepared by casting and austempering. The microstructure, microhardness and wear resistance of the coatings were investigated. The thickness of the coatings was also determined （8-10μm）. Metallographic analyses, SEM （scanning electron microscopic） investigation, microhardness measurements by knoop method, wear resistance tests were carried out. The coatings with and without heat treatment at 290℃, 6 h were tested. Duplication of microhardness value and improvement of the coating＇s properties of heat treated coatings were observed.展开更多

Direct evidence for ground nanometer chips is cuboid, and the average ratio of width to thickness is 1.49. Chips of 9.0 nm in thickness, 13.3 nm in width, and 16.0 in diagonal were achieved and confirmed using transmission electron microscopy. Based on the nanometer chips observed, a model was proposed according to the mass conservation and fundamental mechanism of face grinding. The surface roughness and thickness of damaged layers measured experimentally are in good agreement with the prediction of the developed model. The feed rate significantly affects the surface roughness and thickness of damaged layers, when keeping the wheel and table speeds constant, respectively.展开更多
