Abstract
Austenitic stainless steel 316L (AISI 316L) is commonly employed in marine applications. However, this substrate is exposed to wear and corrosion conditions. To protect AISI 316L substrate from wear and corrosion attacks, it could be coated. In this study, diamond-like carbon (DLC) films were deposited on nitriding AISI 316L substrate. Then, the adhesion, hardness, wear and corrosion resistance of the DLC coated samples were studied. The coating was characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy (RS) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and nano-indentation methods. Plasma nitriding treatment increased the adhesion of the DLC coating on the AISI 316L substrate. Electrochemical measurements and wear tests showed that deposition of the DLC coating improved corrosion and wear resistance of the AISI 316L substrate.
期刊介绍:
The Bulletin of Materials Science is a bi-monthly journal being published by the Indian Academy of Sciences in collaboration with the Materials Research Society of India and the Indian National Science Academy. The journal publishes original research articles, review articles and rapid communications in all areas of materials science. The journal also publishes from time to time important Conference Symposia/ Proceedings which are of interest to materials scientists. It has an International Advisory Editorial Board and an Editorial Committee. The Bulletin accords high importance to the quality of articles published and to keep at a minimum the processing time of papers submitted for publication.
