Ion implantation for improvement of wear properties of steels

Author

Kenneth W. Burris

Abstract

"Previous research on ion implantation at U.M.R. has dealt with the development of a modified Falex Lubricant Tester as a valid wear test and its use in dose curve determination. Our recent work uses Auger surface analysis and scanning electron microscopy to gather support for a model that will tie together some of the many theories proposed as to why ion-implantation improves the surface related mechanical properties of steels"--Abstract, page ii.
