Abstract
Cr-doped graphite-like carbon (Cr-GLC) coatings and Cr-doped diamond-like carbon (Cr-DLC) coatings were prepared by PVD and PECVD, respectively. The lubrication behaviour of the solid-liquid composite lubrication systems was investigated using two ionic liquids (ILs) as lubricants. The results show that the friction coefficient was reduced by approximately 40% compared with that under the dry condition, and the composite system exhibited a good synergistic lubrication effect. The Cr-DLC coating showed better tribological behaviour than the Cr-GLC coating, which can be ascribed to a better physicochemical film formation under friction and the compact microstructure of the Cr-DLC coating. The synergistic effect of the composite systems was affected by the viscosity and corrosiveness of the ILs and the microstructure of the coatings.
