Mutual promotion on the mechanical and tribological properties of the nacre-lik...
Hongbo, Ju; Luan, Jing; Wang, Yiping; Bondarev, Andrey; Evaristo, Manuel; Geng, Yaoxiang; Xu, Junhua; Cavaleiro, Albano; Fernandes, FilipeThe inverse relationship between the tribological and mechanical properties of environmentally friendly self-lubricant films, induced by the addition of soft lubricant agents that can diffuse quickly at elevated temperatures, has hindered the widespread use of these materials in industrial applications. This paper took this challenge to break through the above established relationship by developing novel nacre-...
TEM study of the oxidation resistance and diffusion processes in a multilayered...
Bondarev, Andrey; Al-Rjoub, Abbas; Bin Yaqub, Talha; Polcar, Tomas; Fernandes, FilipeThis work investigates the structure evolution of a multilayered TiSiN/TiN(Ag) coating with heating, oxide scale growth, diffusion processes occurring during oxidation, and changes in the structure and chemical composition of the non-oxidized zone. The coatings have a multilayered structure with a bilayer periodic thickness of ~40 nm. The TiN(Ag) layer consists of fcc TiN and Ag crystalline phases, where Ag nan...
Vacuum Tribological Properties of W-S-N Coatings Synthesized by Direct Current ...
Yaqub, Talha Bin; Yaqoob, Khuram; Mukhtar, Amir; Fernandes, Filipe; Bondarev, Andrey; Ferreira, Fabio; Al-Rjoub, Abbas; Cavaleiro, AlbanoThis work deals with the investigation of the tribological performance of DC magnetron sputteredW-S-N coatings under vacuum atmosphere, as part of the exploration of multi-environment sliding properties of W-S-N solid lubricants. This study is part of the systematic testing of W-S-N solid lubricants in different environments, especially vacuum, which is often ignored. The trend is to test sliding properties in ...
