Investigation of tribological systems for tool wear protection in XHV-adequate atmosphere (C03)

• Subject Area: Thermodynamics and Kinetics as well as Properties of Phases and Microstructure of Materials ; Computer-Aided Design of Materials and Simulation of Materials Behaviour from Atomic to Microscopic Scale ; Glass, Ceramics and Derived Composites
• Term: since 2020
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 394563137

This subproject aims to investigate established coatings for their application behavior in XHV-adequate atmospheres and to explore novel coatings for the functionalization of tools and workpieces, which are used in cooperating subprojects. The prime novelty is thermal in-situ coating as well as an atmospheric pressure plasma treatment in XHV-adequate atmosphere, which specifically produces coatings on deoxidized surfaces that do not have any oxygen inclusions, and thus feature advantageous mechanical and chemical properties.
