Tribocorrosion Wear Evaluation of Protective Coating
The tribocorrosion process of the DLC coatings on different types of steel substrates is simulated using the Nanovea Tribometer. In this study, we would like to showcase that Nanovea Tribometer equipped with the Tribocorrosion Module is an ideal tool for evaluating the performance of protective coatings used in wear and corrosion environment.
Pitting Corrosion density, area, volume, size and shape
In this application the Nanovea ST400 Profilometer is used to measure the surface of a corrosion pitted stainless steel coupon. The area measured was selected at random, and assumed large enough in that it could be extrapolated to make assumptions
about a much larger surface. Density, area, volume, size and shape will be used here to quantify the level of corrosion.
