Surface Energies of Magnetic Recording Head Components

Abstract: The rate of material removal during fixed abrasive lapping is a function of friction coefficient, the surface tension of the lubricant and of the substrate, and the contact angles between the interfaces. In this study, the authors measured the surface energies of materials typically found in thin film magnetic recording heads using contact angle measurements and the Lifshitz-van der Waals acid/base approach. The different materials tested were Ni x Fe y , Al 2 O 3 , and Al 2 O 3 -TiC. Sample preparation proced… Show more
