An Experimental Study on the Rolling Resistance of Silver Coating Films Modified by Plasma Surface Treatments
플라즈마 표면개질 처리된 은 박막의 구름저항거동 고찰
Abstract
An experimental study was performed to discover the effect of adsorbed moisture on the rolling resistance behavior of pure silver coated 52100 bearing steel. Plasma surface modifications were performed on the silver coated specimen to change the wetting characteristics. Experiments using a thrust ball beating-typed roiling test-rig were performed under vacuum, dry air and various tmmidity conditions. Results showed that the changes in the wetting characteristics influenced remarkably on the silver particle agglomeration and resulted in the different behavior of rolling resistance with humidity.
