The tribocorrosion resistance of the modified a-C:H coating was investigated in terms of structural evolution during friction under 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. Regardless of introduction of gradient W doping, although the a-C:H coating maintained the sp<sup>2</sup>/sp<sup>3</sup> atomic bond structure, the stress reduction and plasticity increase were obtained for coatings. Moreover, the stable open-circuit potential revealed that the tribocorrosion resistance of modified coating was significantly improved, as identified by the quite low wear rate and coefficient of friction at 1.46×10<sup>−8</sup> mm<sup>3</sup>/N·m and COF of 0.067, respectively. Different with the traditional failure of worn-out and pitting corrosion of a-C:H coating in chloride solution, the designed robust interfaces and the functional top-layer enabled the coating to withstand longest sliding distance over 2100 m at heavy contacting pressure of 1.67 GPa. These observations offer the promising strategy to fabricate advanced carbon-based coatings with required extremely strong wear resistance and anticorrosion capability for mechanical components used in harsh marine environment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":290,"journal":{"name":"Corrosion Science","volume":"240 ","pages":"Article 112504"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142421007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
