Handbook of Tribology: Materials, coatings, and surface treatments
Book
·
OSTI ID:441774
This book provides an introduction to tribological principles as well as all types of coatings, surface treatments and modifications. The first chapter provides an overview of the various types of lubricants. Chapter two provides a review of friction, wear, and lubrication. Chapter three covers physics of tribological materials including the nature, shape, and properties of surfaces; surface interactions with the environment; phase equilibria; and microstructural effects on friction and wear. Chapter four covers metals and ceramics and chapter five covers solid lubricants and self-lubricating solids. Chapter six provides an overview of coating deposition and surface treatment techniques, including hard facing, vapor deposition, a variety of miscellaneous coating techniques, and surface treatment techniques including microstructural modification, diffusion treatments, and implantation techniques. This chapter also provides a section giving criteria for selecting coating material, deposition and surface treatment techniques. Chapter seven deals with surface preparation for coating deposition. Cleaning methods using solvents, emulsions, alkalines, acids, pickling, salt bath descaling, ultrasonics, and plasmas are described. Surface roughening techniques that are described include abrasive blasting, barrel finishing, mechanical polishing and buffing, chemical etching, and electro-polishing. The chapter concludes with a discussion of techniques for monitoring surface cleanliness and texture. Chapters 8-15 are devoted to much more detailed discussion of the following topics: coating deposition by hard facing; coating deposition from vapor phase; coating deposition by miscellaneous techniques; surface treatments by thermal and chemical processes; surface treatments by ion beams; soft coatings; hard coatings; and screening methodology for materials coatings and surface treatments.
