Diamond Like Coating Process

The reason that there are different types is that even diamond.
Diamond like coating process. Dense smooth a c h dlc diamond like carbon coating. In fact one of the major reasons for the setback of diamond coating technology was the inability to coat diamond on ferrous materials which are extensively used in various industrial applications. If no underlayer is required a dense uniform coating of dlc can be deposited directly to the substrate as well. Dlc coatings can be amorphous more or less flexible hard strong and slick according to the composition and processing method.
In these types of environments only the high hardness of a dlc coating along with a corresponding low coefficient of friction. Diamond like carbon dlc coatings exist in several different forms of amorphous carbon materials that display some of the unique properties of diamond. An adhesive diamond coating on this category of substrate without an interlayer is almost ruled out by the scientific community. This gas is the source for the amorphous carbon dlc coating.
During the dlc coating phase of the process a carbon carrying gas is introduced into the chamber. All seven contain significant amounts of sp 3 hybridized carbon atoms. Calico diamond like carbon dlc is a dense metastable form of hydrogenated amorphous carbon a c h containing significant sp3 bonding. Dlc exists in seven different forms.
