Friction and Wear Properties of Amorphous Carbon Nitride Coatings in Water Lubrication

The friction and wear properties of amorphous carbon nitride(a-CN x)coatings in water lubrication were reviewed.The influences of mating materials and tribological variables such as normal load(W)and sliding speed(V)on the friction and wear properties of the a-CN x coatings were analyzed.It was indicated that the specific wear rate of the a-CN x coatings was related to the hydration reaction of mating materials with water.If the mating materials were easily hydrated,the specific wear rate of a-CN x coatings was low.The water-lubricated properties of the a-CN x coatings were better in comparison to the a-C coatings.The a-CN x/Si-based non-oxide ceramics tribo-pairs exhibited the lowest friction coefficient and wear rate.To describe their friction and wear properties at the normal loads of 3—15Nand the sliding speeds of 0.05—0.5m/s,the wear-mechanism maps for the a-CN x/SiC(Si3N4)tribo-pairs in water were developed.

碳含量对CrN:a-C多相复合涂层摩擦学性能的影响

分别以Cr靶、N_(2)与C_(2)H_(2)作为Cr源、氮源与碳源,采用多弧离子镀技术制备CrN:a-C多相复合涂层,通过调节C_(2)H_(2)的流量改变涂层中碳的含量,使用X射线衍射仪(XRD)、拉曼光谱(Raman)、场发射扫描电镜热场(FE-SEM)、多功能摩擦磨损试验机等手段研究了碳含量对其组成结构、机械性能以及摩擦学性能的影响。结果表明:随着涂层内碳含量的提高涂层非晶碳的结构特征逐渐明显和涂层致密性降低,使机械性能降低但是其结合力和硬度仍然比较高。在干摩擦和5W-30润滑油环境中涂层均呈现出较好的低摩擦与低磨损特性。碳含量和摩擦产物的影响,使摩擦系数和磨损率在两种环境中均先提高后降低。在C_(2)H_(2)流量为120 sccm的条件下在干摩擦和润滑油环境中涂层的摩擦系数分别为0.33和0.12,磨损率分别为1.3×10^(-5)mm^(3)/(N·m)和7.4×10^(-6)mm^(3)/(N·m),可为摩擦副部件提供有效的减磨抗磨防护作用。
