Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research is to improve the adhesion between the DLC film and Al alloy by only in the film depositing process by UBMS equipment and to create Al alloy which can withstand harsh environments used at dry sliding.First, we clarified the effect of UBMS film depositing conditions on film hardness, elastic modulus and film depositing rate, and could be deposited hardness gradient AlN film and hardness gradient AlCrN film with film thickness and hardness controlled step by step on Al alloy.Next, it was revealed that Al alloy having a hardness gradient AlN film as the intermediate layer and a DLC layer on the outermost surface shows a low friction coefficient and wear life is improved comlared to DLC having no gradient AlN film. Furthermore, it was clarified that the DLC/AlNG film does not lower the fatigue strength reliability. Based on the above, the Al alloy developed in this research is expected to be used for sliding machines component.
