Slip-rolling resistance of novel Zr(C,N) thin film coatings under high Hertzian contact pressures
(2010)
The present work was carried out within the framework of my four years activities as a scientific co-worker in the Working Group Tribological Optimization; Failure Analysis; Extreme Exposure in the division Tribology and Wear protection (VI.2) of the BAM Federal Institute for Materials Research and testing in Berlin, Germany and generously funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG WO521/6-1). First of all, I would like to express my sincere thanks to my supervisor Dr.-Ing. Mathias Woydt, head of the aforementioned working group, who gave me the opportunity to start my professional development, initiated and intensively supported this PhD work as well as accepted to take part in thesis committee. Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Walter Reimers, Chairman of the Institute for Materials Science and Technology of the Technical University of Berlin (TU Berlin), is also gratefully thanked for his interest in the thesis subject, for helpful comments and suggestions as well as for agreeing to participate in the referee of this work. I would like to thank also Prof. Dr.-Ing. Claudia Fleck, Chairman of the Material Engineering Department (Fachgebiet Werkstofftechnik) of the Technical University Berlin (TU Berlin), for assuming the chairmanship of the thesis committee. All the staff of the tribology division is also greatly acknowledged for bringing a pleasant working environment. Dr. Dirk Spaltmann is particularly thanked for the helpful discussions as well as for his assistance in English formulation. Dipl.-Ing. Manuel Reichelt and my bureau colleague Dr.-Ing. Géraldine Theiler will find here my many thanks for promoting constantly a good working atmosphere. Sigrid Binkowski and Dipl.-Ing. Norbert Kelling are also gratefully acknowledged for their constant and helpful technical support. André Otto is also thanked for his substantial administrative support. My sincere thanks go to Dr. rer. nat. (and “by the way” world and olympic champion in eights rowing) Ilona Dörfel (BAM V.1, Composition and Microstructure of Engineering Materials) for performing the highly relevant TEM investigations as also Heidemarie Rooch, and Ing. Wolfgang Gesatzke for the specific preparation of the samples. Furthermore, I greatly appreciate the contributions of Dr.-Ing. Vasile-Dan Hodoroaba, Birgid Strauß, Sigrid Benemann and Dipl.-Phys. Thomas Wirth (BAM VI.4) for their valuable contributions in microscopy analysis and to Dr.-Ing. Eric Wild (TU Berlin) for the substantial residual stress analysis of the coatings. Acknowledgement is also due to Dr. Thomas Chudoba from ASMEC GmbH for performing hardness measurements with his QCSM module. Thanks are surely extended to Fundación Tekniker, specifically Josu Goikoetxea and Dr. Javier Barriga for the manufacturing of the coatings in industrial deposition chambers and to the machining shop BAM Z.5 for the specimens preparation. Last, but by no means the least, I would like to thank all my friends for their support and to all the people who helped me directly or indirectly in my doctoral work and/or for my pleasant German adaptation. My very special thanks (du fond du coeur) go to my beloved parents Marie-Hélène (What is Tribology?) and Gérard (I miss you so much) and “of course” to my bright (and sometimes nerve-racking) sister Sophie, for everlasting encouragement and plenty of good advices in a wide range of domains. Ania, especially for your contribution in the decision of pursuing my “German experiment”.
The slip-rolling resistances of hard and stiff thin films under high Hertzian contact pressures can be improved by optimizing the 'coating/substrate systems'. It is known from former investigations that the so-called 'egg-shell' effect is no general hindrance for high slip-rolling resistance of thin hard coatings. The coating stability depends more on specific deposition process and coating/substrate interface design. In this article it is experimentally shown, that pure amorphous carbon thin films with hardness between 15 and 63 GPa can be slip-rolling resistant several million load cycles under a maximum Hertzian contact pressures of up to 3.0 GPa. Whereas all coatings were stable up to 10 million load cycles in paraffin oil at room temperature, reduced coating lifetime was found in SAE 0W-30 engine oil at 120°C. It was shown how the coating hardness and the initial coating surface roughness influence the running-in process and coating lifetime. No clear correlation between coating hardness and coating lifetime could be observed, but friction coefficients seem to be reduced with higher coating hardness. Very low friction down to ~0.03 in unmodified engine oils was found for the hardest ta-C film.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Die Wälzbeständigkeit von harten und steifen Dünnschichten unter hohen Hertzschen Kontaktpressungen kann durch die Optimierung des 'Beschichtung/Substrat Systems' deutlich verbessert werden. Aus vorangegangenen Untersuchungen ist bekannt, dass der so genannte 'Eierschaleneffekt' kein generelles Hindernis für eine hohe Wälzbeständigkeit für harte Dünnschichten darstellen muss. Die Stabilität der Beschichtungen hängt vielmehr von dem spezifischen Prozessparametern und dem Schicht/Substrat Grenzflächendesign ab. In diesem Artikel wird experimentell nachgewiesen, dass reine amorphe Kohlenstoffdünnschichten mit Härtewerten zwischen 15 und 63 GPa für mehrere Millionen Lastzyklen unter maximalen Hertzschen Kontaktpressungen bis 3.0 GPa überrollbeständig sein können. Während alle Beschichtungen bis 10 Millionen Lastzyklen in Paraffinöl bei Raumtemperatur keine Defekte aufweisen wurde unter Verwendung eines SAE 0W-30 Motorenöls bei 120°C eine Verringerung der Überrollbeständigkeit nachgewiesen. Es wurde nachgewiesen, wie die Schichthärte und ursprüngliche Oberflächenrauheit der Beschichtung den Einlaufprozess und die Lebensdauer beeinflussen. Es konnte keine offensichtliche Korrelation zwischen Schichthärte und Lebensdauer festgestellt werden, allerdings wurde eine scheinbare Reduktion des Reibwertes mit steigender Schichthärte beobachtet werden. Dabei zeigte die härteste ta-C Schicht unter Verwendung des Motorenöls sehr geringe Reibwerte mit ~0.03.
Costs reduction is one of the major objectives in mechanical applications with a parallel increase of the power output. Another driver represents new environmental standards and their increasing restrictions in the automotive industry leading to the question, if materials based concepts may substitute harmful EP/AW additives in lubricants. This paper presents the slip-rolling resistance of different DLC/THC coatings on steel substrates with a definite slip rate of 10%. Industrial DLC coatings of ta-C and a-C:H types from various manufacturers were deposited on steels SAE 52100 and AMS 5898 to compile the slip-rolling resistance under initial average Hertzian contact pressures between 1.5 GPa and 2 GPa. The tests were carried out on Amsler-type twin disc tribometer under the regime of mixed/boundary lubrication in unadditivated paraffinic oil (ISO VG 46) and a factory fill engine oil. The spherical steel sample was uncoated and the cylindrical coated with DLC. Some coatings achieved 10 million cycles without any damage under a maximal Hertzian contact pressure Pmax well over 2.25 GPa, thus exceeding FZG 12.
