Development of Hydrogen-Free Diamond-Like Carbon Coating for Piston Rings
The first piston ring application of a hydrogen-free diamond-like carbon (H-free DLC) coating to a mass-production gasoline engine reduces friction. It is found that the friction reduction effect between the cylinder bore and piston is 18%. When H-free DLC is applied to top ring, friction is over 10...
