“…Boronizing and DLC coatings techniques are gaining popularity in recent years [2,4,6,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] due to their potential for enhancing the wear and corrosion properties and hence, widening their industrial applications. Under a given condition, wear behaviour can depend on the combination of surface engineering methods that are applied to the contacting surfaces.…”

Wear behaviour of the AISI 4140 steel specimens with various surface conditions was tested against the DLC-coated boronized disc of AISI 4140 steel. Specific wear rate and coefficient of friction (COF) of the as-boronized (AB) pins at 100 and 150 N loads were substantially lower than the boronized-polished (B-P) pins. COF of AB pins was in the range of 0.07-0.09. However, the COF of B-P pins was about 0.13. In case of the DLC-coated pins, underlying boronized surface outperformed the hardened-tempered surface. Wear properties of the DLC-coated pins were improved with an increase in the load. DLC coating on both contacting surfaces gave the lowest specific wear rate of 0.21 × 10 −8 mm 3 N −1 m −1 , which was about 30 times lower than the B-P pins, and COF was in the range of 0.08-0.09.
