Book Self Lubricating Surfaces by Ion Beam Processing

Download or read book Self Lubricating Surfaces by Ion Beam Processing written by Rabi S. Bhattacharya and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary research objective of this work was to develop self-lubricating surface and coatings through direct ion implantations and a combined process of electron beam evaporation and ion implantation. The latter is most commonly referred in the literature as ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD). IBAD of bi-layer coating of (Calcium Fluoride/Silver) on (Silicon nitride) resulted in a very adherent coating that exhibited significantly low friction and wear characteristic at both room and elevated temperatures (800 deg C). Ion beam assisted titanium dioxide coating on M50 steel showed significantly improved friction and wear characteristics at room temperature. Ion beam assisted Cadmium Oxide coating lowered the friction coefficient of M50 steel 400C. The ion beam assisted deposition technique for fabricating self-lubricating surfaces appears to have good technical feasibility for defense and industrial applications, owing to the overall simplicity and scalability of the technique. The initial applications are likely to be in the seals and bearings of engines, variable stator vanes, etc., in gas turbine engine technology.

Book Friction of Self lubricating Surfaces by Ion Beam Techniques  Final Technical Report

Download or read book Friction of Self lubricating Surfaces by Ion Beam Techniques Final Technical Report written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UES, Inc. conducted a research and development program designed to establish conditions for ion implantation/mixing of suitable additives into the surfaces of bulk ceramics and metals for obtaining self-lubricating low friction and wear characteristics. The substrates considered were ZrO2, Al2O3, Si3N4, steel and Ni-base superalloy. The lubricant additives chosen were BaF2/CaF2Ag, MoS2, WS2and B2O3. The initial tasks of the program were to synthesis these lubricant compounds by co-implantation of constituent elements if sufficient beams of desired elements were obtained. The final tasks were to investigate high energy (MeV) ion mixing of deposited coatings as well as to investigate ion beam assisted deposition using low energy ion beams. It was shown that MoS2 can be synthesized by co-implantation of Mo and S in ceramic materials with appropriate choice of energies to obtain nearly overlapping depth profiles. The sliding life of DC magnetron sputtered MoS2 films of thicknesses (approximately)7500Å on ceramic materials such as sapphire, Si3N4 and ZrO3 were improved by ten to thousand fold after 2 Mev Ag+ ion mixing. Ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) and ion beam mixing were utilized to fabricate self-lubricating coatings of CaF2/Ag and BaF/CaF2/Ag composites.

Book Self lubricating diamond like Coatings Deposition

Download or read book Self lubricating diamond like Coatings Deposition written by James Karsten Hirvonen and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ion beam enhanced deposition (IBED) has been used to deposit hard, adherent thin films of boron nitride with a significant cubic crystal structure present. A number of analytical techniques have been used to characterize these coatings including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS); X-ray diffraction (XRD); transmission electron microscopy (TEM); Raman spectroscopy; nuclear radiation analysis (NRA); Rutherford Backscattering spectroscopy (RBS); and IR spectroscopy. Friction and wear behavior of these coatings was also conducted. The IBED-i-BN thin films generally exhibit a high microhardness and good adhesion to the silicon and 304 stainless steel substrates. All films (except one) had the hyperstoichiometric boron concentration. The ration Boron/Nitride approached the theoretical value at the highest current densities of the nitrogen beam. Many of the i-BN coatings exhibited low friction against 440 C stainless steel and Silicon nitride counterfaces. Friction seems to increase with increasing B/N ratios. There is a strong demand for diamond-like coatings of boron nitride (BN) in a large number of tribological applications including cryogenic bearings and adiabatic engines. Commercial use of BN coatings has previously been impeded by sample to sample reproducibility problems which have been overcome by the innovative Spire process using ion beam enhanced deposition (IBED). Keywords: Ion beam; Deposition; Boron nitride; Diamond-like; Hardness; Friction. (jg).

Book Mechanical and Tribological Properties of Ion Beam processed Surfaces

Download or read book Mechanical and Tribological Properties of Ion Beam processed Surfaces written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intent of this work was to broaden the applications of well-established surface modification techniques and to elucidate the various wear mechanisms that occur in sliding contact of ion-beam processed surfaces. The investigation included characterization and evaluation of coatings and modified surfaces synthesized by three surface engineering methods; namely, beam-line ion implantation, plasma-source ion implantation, and DC magnetron sputtering. Correlation among measured properties such as surface hardness, fracture toughness, and wear behavior was also examined. This dissertation focused on the following areas of research: (1) investigating the mechanical and tribological properties of mixed implantation of carbon and nitrogen into single crystal silicon by beam-line implantation; (2) characterizing the mechanical and tribological properties of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings processed by plasma source ion implantation; and (3) developing and evaluating metastable boron-carbon-nitrogen (BCN) compound coatings for mechanical and tribological properties. The surface hardness of a mixed carbon-nitrogen implant sample improved significantly compared to the unimplanted sample. However, the enhancement in the wear factor of this sample was found to be less significant than carbon-implanted samples. The presence of nitrogen might be responsible for the degraded wear behavior since nitrogen-implantation alone resulted in no improvement in the wear factor. DLC coatings have low friction, low wear factor, and high hardness. The fracture toughness of DLC coatings has been estimated for the first time. The wear mechanism in DLC coatings investigated with a ruby slider under a contact stress of 1 GPa was determined to be plastic deformation. The preliminary data on metastable BCN compound coatings indicated high friction, low wear factor, and high hardness.
