  2. 2. Tribological characterization of selected hard coatings

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för teknik- och naturvetenskap

    Author : Patrik Karlsson; [2009]
    Keywords : Tribology;

    Abstract : Hard coatings are often used for protection of tool surfaces due to coating properties like low friction and high wear resistance. Even though many of the hard coatings have been tested for wear, it is important to try new wear test setups to fully understand tribological mechanisms and the potential of hard coatings. READ MORE
