Diamond-like carbon (DLC) is a class of amorphous carbon material that displays some of the typical properties of diamond. DLC is usually applied as coatings to other materials that could benefit from such properties. [1] DLC exists in seven different forms. [2] All seven contain significant amounts of sp 3 hybridized carbon atoms.
Optical coatings include diamond-like carbon (DLC) and anti-reflective-scratch hybrid coatings. Diamond-like Carbon is a coating that shares diamonds' extreme scratch resistance. Anti-reflective Scratch hybrid coatings contain scratch-resistant additives with anti-reflective coating materials. [4] [5]
Chameleon coatings are also often used on hypersonic and reusable launch vehicles that require lubrication in ambient atmosphere, vacuum , and during re-entry (high temperature). A typical multilayer coating may use a molybdenum disulfide or diamond-like carbon for low friction at ambient conditions.
Carbon films are thin film coatings which consist predominantly of the chemical element carbon. They include plasma polymer films , amorphous carbon films ( diamond-like carbon , DLC), CVD diamond films as well as graphite films.
Advanced diamond-like carbon (DLC) coated polymer composites have been reported [39] where the coating increases the surface hydrophobicity, hardness and wear resistance. Ferromagnetic composites, including those with a polymer matrix consisting, for example, of nanocrystalline filler of Fe-based powders and polymers matrix.
Investigators are trying to determine how a woman got past multiple security checkpoints this week at New York’s JFK International Airport and boarded a plane to Paris, apparently hiding in the ...
Coatings deposited on the SMF work tool, such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or physical vapor deposition (PVD) and titanium nitride (TiN) or diamond-like carbon coatings exhibit low chemical reactivity even in high energy frictional contact, where the subject material's protective oxide layer is breached, and the frictional contact is ...
Research into nanolubricant coatings has been conducted in both the academic and industrial spaces. [ 49 ] [ 50 ] Nanoborate additives as well as mechanical model descriptions of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating formations have been developed. [ 51 ]
