The impact of laser surface treatment on the microstructure, wear resistance and hardness of the AlMg5 aluminum alloy
摘要: Light metal alloys due to several unique properties such as low density and high corrosion resistance are increasingly used in various technical applications, where the automotive industry is one of the most important sectors. The automotive applications use mostly aluminum alloys, where the strength to density ratio of the material plays a crucial factor. Unfortunately, relatively low mechanical properties limit their applications for parts where a high surface hardness and wear resistance is expected. The classic heat treatment of aluminum alloys can only in some limited ranges improve the bulk material properties. Despite this, surface treatment with laser processing has developed significantly over the past 20 years. The laser beam treatment allows the introduction of a wide range of alloying elements to the surface layer of an aluminum alloy and thus, as a result of the precipitation of numerous intermetallic phases, significantly increases hardness, and abrasion resistance. The purpose of this work was to modify the aluminum surface layer using high-power fiber laser (HPFL). During this process, a mixture of titanium and iron powders (90/10 wt.%) was introduced onto the surface of the AlMg5 alloy. The microhardness tests carried out by the Vickers method and tribological tests showed a significant increase in mechanical properties in the entire volume of the obtained layer. Research on light and scanning microscopy revealed fragmentation of primary precipitates and the formation of numerous intermetallic phases rich in titanium and aluminum.

Effects of single- and multi-shape laser-textured surfaces on tribological properties under dry friction
摘要: Textural morphology is an important factor influencing dry friction, and few studies have been conducted regarding the effects of single- and multi-shape textures on dry tribological properties. In this work, six types of textures including single- and multi-shape textures were produced on 40Cr steel samples by using a nanosecond laser. Reciprocating sliding tests under dry friction were conducted using a pin-on-disc friction tester. The influences of textured surfaces with different textures on tribological properties were investigated. Results showed that tribological properties were affected by different textural morphologies. The dimple-textured surface had the highest friction coefficient, followed by the groove-textured surface. The sinusoidal-textured surface had the lowest friction coefficient. The friction coefficients of multi-shape textured surfaces were lower than those of non-textured surfaces but higher than those of sinusoidal-textured surfaces. The wear properties of the tested surfaces were consistent with the friction-coefficient results. The sinusoidal- and sinusoidal–groove-textured surfaces can be considered as the optimum choices for dry reciprocating friction.

AIP Conference Proceedings [Author(s) SolarPACES 2017: International Conference on Concentrating Solar Power and Chemical Energy Systems - Santiago, Chile (26–29 September 2017)] - Carbon-titanium multilayer films: Synthesis and characterization
摘要: To synthesize Carbon-Titanium (C-Ti) multilayer thin films deposited on silicon substrates was used Thermionic Vacuum Arc (TVA) method. The coated layers consisted of a base layer of about 100 nm of Carbon deposited at low evaporation rates. Subsequently, seven Carbon and Titanium layers were deposited alternatively on top of Carbon base layer, each of them has a final thickness up to 40 nm. In this study we obtained different batches of samples by variation of the substrate temperature between 0oC and 300oC, and the ion acceleration voltage applying a negative substrate bias voltage between 0V and -700V. To characterize the microstructure properties of as prepared C-Ti multilayer structures were used Electron Microscopy techniques (TEM, SEM, STEM) and Raman Spectroscopy. Results of tribological measurements are associated with the occurrence of atomic diffusion processes at Ti/C interface. To characterize the electrical conductive properties, the electrical resistance versus temperature have been measured.
