Abstract: The purpose of this work is to elucidate the properties of ball bearings used for clean applications. Dust, namely wear debris particle generation behavior of ball bearings lubricated with solid ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the tribological properties of Ag film fabricated by ion enhanced deposition at atmospheric room temperature, whereby 150 keV Ar ion bombardment and Ag ion plating are ...

Abstract: An attempt was made to improve the tribological properties of WS2 sputtered film by bombarding the film surface with various inert gaseous ions (He+ , Ar+ , Kr+ , Xe+ ). The resulting changes ...

Abstract: Cubic boron nitride (c-BN) film was deposited onto a silicon substrate by means of a magnetically enhanced plasma ion plating method utilizing a hot cathode plasma discharge in parallel magnetic ...
