摘要: The instability of diamond-like carbon (DLC) film deposited on Ti-6Al-4V alloy substrate using the r.f.-PACVD method was investigated under sliding conditions in an aqueous environment. Significant adhesive wear observed when tested this environment, while normal abrasive occurred ambient air relative humidity about 25%. A critical test performed to elucidate reason for which limits biomedical applications DLC coating. By employing a multi-step coating process, it shown that is closely related penetration water molecules interface via through-film defects or pinholes. These results suggest stability environment can be improved by controlling layer.
