    Comparative study of tribomechanical properties of HiPIMS with positive pulses DLC coatings on different tools steels
    (MDPI, 2021) Claver Alba, Adrián; Jiménez-Piqué, Emilio; Almandoz Sánchez, Eluxka; Fernández de Ara, Jonathan; Fernández, Iván; Santiago, José A.; Barba Areso, Eneko; García Lorente, José Antonio; Ingeniaritza; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ingeniería
    Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings are very interesting due to their extraordinary properties; their excellent wear resistance, very low friction coefficient, great hardness, high elastic modulus or biocompatibility can be highlighted, as can their multifunctionality. Because of this, over recent decades they have been widely used in tribological applications, improving the performance and the useful life of machining tools in an effective way. However, these coatings have a disadvantage compared to other coatings deposited by commercially available techniques-their resultant adhesion is worse than that of other techniques and limits their industrial applications. In this work, tribological results of a scratch test, wear resistance and nanoindentation of tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) and tungsten carbide:carbon (WC:C) DLC coatings deposited by means of novel highpower impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) technology with positive pulses are reported. The coatings were deposited in three different tools steels: K360, vanadis 4 and vancron. These tools' steels are very interesting because of their great and wide industrial applicability. Experimental results showed excellent tribological properties, such as resistance to wear or adhesion, in the two types of DLC coatings.

    A comparative study in the tribological behavior of DLC coatings deposited by HiPIMS technology with positive pulses
    (MDPI, 2020) García Lorente, José Antonio; Rivero Fuente, Pedro J.; Barba Areso, Eneko; Fernández, Iván; Santiago, José A.; Fuente, Gonzalo G.; Rodríguez Trías, Rafael; Ingeniaritza; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ingeniería
    During the last few decades, diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings were widely used for tribological applications, being an effective tool for improving the performance and the useful life of different machining tools. Despite its excellent properties, among which stand out a high hardness, a very low friction coefficient, and even an excellent wear resistance, one of the main drawbacks which limits its corresponding industrial applicability is the resultant adhesion in comparison with other commercially available deposition techniques. In this work, it is reported the tribological results of a scratch test, wear resistance, and nanoindentation of ta-C and WC:C DLC coatings deposited by means of a novel high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) technology with 'positive pulses'. The coatings were deposited on 1.2379 tool steel which is of a high interest due to its great and wide industrial applicability. Finally, experimental results showed a considerable improvement in the tribological properties such as wear resistance and adhesion of both types of DLC coatings. In addition, it was also observed that the role of doping with W enables a significant enhancement on the adhesion for extremely high critical loads in the scratch tests.
