  1. Wear Mitigation by the Use of Surface Coatings by Stephen Huse

  2. Outline • Abrasion and adhesion description • Variables that change the wear rate • Variables changed by coatings • Surface coating processes • Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) • Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) • Electrodeposition • Thermal Spray

  3. Abrasion • Physical interference of surface asperities • Types: • Cutting • Cracking (brittle fracture) • Ploughing

  4. Adhesion • Cold weld of surface asperities • Similar materials such as steel on steel • Wear removes oxide layer

  5. Variables That Change the Wear Rate • Friction • Surface roughness • Normal Forces • Temperature • Surface hardness • Surface materials • Environmental considerations

  6. Variables Changed by Coatings • Surface Hardness • Reduces abrasive wear • May increase brittleness • Friction • Reduces force for tooling • Reduce heat generated • Surface Materials • Reduces adhesive bonding • Example: steel - steel becomes steel - ceramic coating - steel

  7. Physical Vapor Deposition Process • Vacuum environment • coating powder is melted and transported to substrate • Cathodic arc • Electron beam • Plasma torch • Magnetic • Coating condenses on substrate • NASA plasma spray PVD • Advantages • High Hardness • Low friction • Disadvantage: requires line-of-sight

  8. Chemical Vapor Deposition Process • Chemically controlled atmospheric environment. • Substrate heated to 2000°F • Atmosphere chemically reacts at surface • Examples: • Titanium cloride (gas), nitrogen, and hydrogen → titanium nitride coating • Titanium chloride (gas), methane, and hydrogen → titanium carbide coating • Superior adhesion of the coating to the substrate • Used for synthetic diamond growth

  9. Electrodeposition • Example: Chrome plating • Resists corrosive wear • Increased hardness • Reduced friction Thermal Spray • Example: Plasma spray • Similar to PVD, but no vacuum • Substrate is preheated to remove impurities
