Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma surface engineering of low alloy steel
TL;DR: In this paper, a duplex plasma surface-engineering technique has been developed to improve the tribological properties and load-bearing capacity of low alloy steel, which is achieved by plasma nitriding the steel first so as to produce a thick, strong subsurface and then depositing a thin, hard and wear-resistant TiN coating on the nitrided substrate by ion plating.
Journal ArticleDOI
X-ray diffraction characterisation of low temperature plasma nitrided austenitic stainless steels
Yong Sun,Xiaoying Li,T. Bell +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the positions of diffraction peaks from the face centred cubic (fcc) phase deviated in a systematic way from those for an ideal fcc lattice, resulting in a highly distorted and disordered fcc structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Realising the potential of duplex surface engineering
T. Bell,Hanshan Dong,Yong Sun +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, a synthesis of several strands of recent surface engineering research at the University of Birmingham is presented, including the duplex ceramic coating-nitrided steel system, and the Duplex DLC coating-oxygen diffusion treated titanium system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sliding Wear Characteristics and Corrosion Behaviour of Selective Laser Melted 316L Stainless Steel
Yong Sun,Adam Moroz,K. Alrbaey +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the wear behavior of SLM 316L stainless steel was investigated under dry sliding conditions, and the corrosion properties were measured electrochemically in a chloride containing solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thick rutile layer on titanium for tribological applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the response of titanium to oxidation at various temperatures and timings, in terms of layer thickness, phase evolution, surface morphology, oxide layer-substrate adhesion, hardness and tribological characteristics.
