The cold rolling process is used to produce very thin steel wires by compressive forces
applied through a set of rolls. These rolls undergo to surface fast degradation due to high …

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) film has gained widespread popularity as a versatile and
important solid lubricant material in the field of tribology. Among various types of DLC films …

To overcome the high friction coefficient and low toughness bottleneck of MoSi 2 used as
protective films for moving parts, a novel strategy of do** and alloying through magnetron …

Hydrogenated Cr-containing diamond-like carbon (Cr-DLC) films were deposited onto
silicon and Ti-6Al-4V (TC4) alloy substrates using high power impulse magnetron sputtering …

This study focuses on the tribological behaviour of Cu-layer covered aC: H films and the
transfer film formation mechanisms, by means of tribological test, surface profiling, Raman …

Amorphous carbon nitride (α-CN x) films are perfect protective materials for advanced
tribological application due to low coefficients of friction and chemical stability. However …

In this work, conductive hard films with a transition layer of Ti were synthesized using
multifunctional magnetron sputtering technology, and a current-carrying friction system was …

Polyimide-bearing retainer has been successfully used in space environment. However, the
structural damage of polyimide induced by space irradiation limits its wide use. In order to …
