Abstract
Abstract Cr doped diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating was deposited on the carburized Ti6Al4V alloy (TA) by magnetron sputtering (MS). The physical and chemical characteristics of Cr doped DLC coating were obtained using scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectroscope, Raman spectrometer, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared, and the mechanical property and adhesion force were analyzed by nanoindenter and scratch tester. The effects of carburizing treatment on the coefficient of friction (COF) and wear mechanism of Cr doped DLC coatings were investigated on a ball-on-disk tribometer. The results show that the adhesion force and mechanical property of Cr doped DLC coating deposited on the carburized TA are higher than those deposited on the original TA. The average coefficients of friction (COFs) of Cr doped DLC coatings deposited on the original and carburized TAs under the dry-friction condition are 0.157 and 0.143, respectively, showing that the carburizing treatment has the obvious effect of friction reduction for the Cr doped DLC coating. The wear mechanism of Cr doped DLC coating deposited on the carburized TA is combined action of abrasive wear and adhesive wear, which are contributed to the enhancement of mechanical property of Cr doped DLC coating by carburization treatment. Furthermore, the average COFs of Cr doped DLC coatings deposited on the original and carburized TAs under the oil-lubrication condition are 0.152 and 0.131, respectively, which are superior to those under the dry-fiction condition. The carburizing treatment promotes the formation of self-repairing carbonyl of Cr doped DLC coating, and the oil-wet characteristic of Cr doped DLC coating with the aromatic aldehyde of C O as the functional group plays the main role of friction reduction.
