Student thesis: Master's ThesisMaster of Philosophy

Abstract

The adhesive wear and frictional characteristics of modern and traditional engineering coatings have been investigated under conditions of constant load and sliding speed. The wear tests were carried out under dry sliding contact using the standard pin-on-disc wear testing equipment. The engineering coatings investigated were electroless nickel PTFE composite, conventional electroless nickel, hard chromium, tin/nickel,tin/cobalt and titanium nitride...
