Problems solved by technology

Additionally, unwanted chemical reactions can occur between the additive complex molecules and the a-C:H or a-C:H:Me coating and lead to denaturation of the coating itself

Embodiment Construction

[0014] In order to overcome the drawbacks of DLC coatings interacting with lubricants containing Mo-containing and / or Zn-containing additives, the inventors aimed to design a new metal-doped modified DLC coating that can impart The chemical affinity of the additives thus provides better friction and wear properties compared to the prior art.

[0015] As mentioned earlier, a-C:H:Me coatings with an atomic ratio of Me-C not greater than 20% are known from the prior art for the coating of sliding components to improve wear and friction properties, however, these coatings (similar to metal-free a-C:H coatings) are incompatible with lubricants containing Mo-containing and / or Zn-containing additives.

[0016] The inventors have unexpectedly found that metal-doped DLC coatings having an atomic percentage of Me:C greater than or equal to 30% and less than or equal to 60% show a positive interaction with lubricants containing Mo-containing and / or Zn-containing additives effect and thu...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a coating for sliding parts that allows using diamond like carbon (DLC) or DLC-comprising coatings in combination with Molybdenum- and/or Zinc-comprising lubricants in such a manner that enhanced reduction of wear and friction in comparison to the state of the art is attained. The coating system according to the present invention comprises at least a metal-comprising carbon layer of the type Me-C/a)-C:X, whose element composition can be expressed as (MeaC1-a)1-bXb with 0.3 <= a <=0.6 and 0<= b <=0.3, where Me is a metal or a combination of different metals and X is an element different from Me and different from C or X is a mixture of elements different from Me and which doesn't contain C. Me can be preferably Chromium (Cr) or Molybdenum (Mo) and X can be preferably hydrogen (H) or a mixture of silicon and hydrogen (Si + H).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to coatings for sliding parts which allow the use of diamond-like carbon (DLC) or DLC-containing coatings in combination with molybdenum-containing and / or Combination of zinc lubricants. The coating system of the present invention comprises at least a metal-containing carbon layer of type Me-C / a-C:X, whose elemental composition can be expressed as (Me a C 1-a ) 1-b x b , where 0.3≤a≤0.6, and 0<b≤0.3, where Me is a metal or a combination of different metals, X is an element different from Me and different from C, or X is an element different from Me and does not contain C mixture. Me may preferably be chromium (Cr) or molybdenum (Mo), and X may preferably be hydrogen (H) or a mixture of silicon and hydrogen (Si+H). Background technique [0002] In the automotive industry, the application of DLC coatings has become widely accepted as a standard solution to eliminate wear problems in critical designs subject to very ...
