Studies on the tribological properties of HFCVD diamond films coated on Co-cemented tungsten carbide (WC-Co) substrates are rarely reported in available literatures, especially in the water lubricating conditions. In this paper, conventional microcrystalline diamond(MCD) and fine-grained diamond(FGD) films are deposited on WC-Co substrates and their friction properties are evaluated on a reciprocating ball-on-plate tribometer, where they are brought to slide against ball-bearing steel and copper balls in dry and water lubricating conditions. Scanning electron microscopy(SEM), atomic force microscopy(AFM), surface profilometer and Raman spectroscopy are adopted to characterize as-deposited diamond films; SEM and energy dispersive X-ray(EDX) are used to investigate the worn region on the surfaces of both counterface balls and diamond films. The research results show that the friction coefficient of HFCVD diamond films always starts with a high initial value, and then gradually transits to a relative stable state. For a given counterface and a sliding condition, the FGD film presents lower stable friction coefficients by 0.02-0.03 than MCD film. The transferred materials adhered on sliding interface are supposed to have predominate effect on the friction behaviors of HFCVD diamond films. Furthermore, the effect of water lubricating on reducing friction coefficient is significant. For a given counterpart, the stable friction coefficients of MCD or FGD films reduce by about 0.07-0.08 while sliding in the water lubricating condition, relative to in dry sliding condition. This study is beneficial for widespread applications of HFCVD diamond coated mechanical components and adopting water lubricating system, replacing ofoil lubricating, in a variety of mechanical processing fields to implement the green production process.展开更多

The Si/Fe atomic ratios of the deposits ranged from 0.25 to 0.45, and were smaller than those of hisingerite (12), but apparently close to those of siliceous ferrihydrite (0.250.5). Si was confirmed to be present as monomeric or oligomeric silicate from the Si-O stretching vibration frequencies on the IR spectra. Judging from the results of DTA, which minerals starting to produce after heating, and a relationship between Si-O stretching vibration frequency and Si/Fe atomic ratio proposed by Henmi et al. (1981), all the deposits in this study were concluded to be mixtures of various siliceous ferri-hydrites with low and high Si/Fe atomic ratios. Moreover, by comparing the chemical properties of hot spring waters, the formation conditions of siliceous ferrihydrite were also discussed.展开更多

The rocks exhibit sedimentary texture and structure and are composed of hot\|water deposited minerals. The FeO, Fe\-2O\-3, Au and Ag contents of the auriferous cherts are high; the Cr, Ni and Co contents are also high but significantly variable; MnO/TiO\-2 and TFe/TiO\-2 ratios are relatively high. As viewed from a few diagrams that distinguish different chert formations, the auriferous cherts are in or near the range of hot\|water deposited cherts. Because the correlation coefficients between Au contents and those of Cr, Ni of the rocks are negative, a great Au amount in the cherts might not be brought about by later hydrothermal alterations. The rare\|earth elements, O and Si isotopic compositions of the auriferous cherts demonstrate that the cherts belong to hot\|water deposited rocks. The later hydrothermal alterations made the petrochemical compositions of the cherts deviate from the characteristics of hot\|water deposition. In general, the geological and geochemical features of the auriferous cherts demonstrate that the rocks were formed by hot water deposition.展开更多
