Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Crystalline metals and alloys with distinguished mechanical properties and fatigue resistance have been universally applied in the critical components of the aviation industry. Fatigue failure is a common mode for aviation components owing to its harsh service conditions. In general, the surface integrity of manufactured components is essential since it directly influences fatigue crack initiation and initial propagation. However, it is challenging to manufacture parts with high surface integrity due to the poor machinability of high-strength metallic materials. On one hand, machining marks tend to become stress concentrators, which accelerates surface crack nucleation. On the other hand, machining-induced tensile residual stresses contribute to crack tip openings, which deteriorate the fatigue resistance of the parts. Therefore, the surface integrity of crystalline metals and alloys should be carefully improved by surface modification treatments, and it is essential to study its distribution characteristics subjected to different surface modification treatments. To date, many surface modification treatments have emerged from both the scientific and engineering fields, and more attention has been paid to utilizing them to improve the fatigue properties of the parts.

This Special Issue of Crystals aims to provide a forum for original research works and review articles on current advances in the research fields of surface modification of metallic materials. Areas of interest include but are not limited to shot peening, deep rolling, laser shock peening, ultrasonic surface rolling, surface mechanical attrition treatment, ultrasonic impact treatment, micro-forging, and mechanical machining, applied for surface modification of metallic materials. Aspects of investigations can be advanced surface modification techniques, surface integrity characterization, mechanical property evaluation, fatigue testing, simulation, and applications.

Diamond-coated tools often fail due to coating graphitization and delamination caused by poor coating adhesion, large contact stress, and thermochemical reactions. To address these issues, this research utilized a combination of micro-nano double-layer diamond coating, WS2 coating, and micro-textures. The WS2 coating inhibits the graphitization of the diamond coating through a transfer film mechanism, while the micro-textures and nanocrystalline diamond coating store WS2, resulting in a prolonged lubrication life. Additionally, the influence of micro-texture on coating-substrate residual stress and coating-substrate mechanical interlocking was discussed, and it was proved that proper micro-textures effectively improve the coating adhesion. Under the same cutting flux conditions, taking coating peeling as the judging standard, the cutting distance of textured WS2/Micro-Nano diamond coating tool is more than three times that of ordinary, diamond-coated tools, which greatly improves the service life of the tool.

4H-SiC wafers are more likely to sustain a lower material removal rate (MRR) and severe subsurface damage in conventional chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) methods. To overcome the material removal bottleneck imposed by aqueous chemistry, a high-efficiency polishing of 4H-SiC wafers method by applying reactive nonaqueous fluids to self-sharpening fixed abrasive pads has been proposed in our former research works. Furthermore, to improve the material removal rate and reduce the surface roughness Sa value of 4H-SiC substrates of the Si face, the effect of organic acid, H2O2, and Triton X-100 in nonaqueous slurry on 4H-SiC polishing was investigated. The MRR of 12.83 μm/h and the Sa of 1.45 nm can be obtained by the orthogonally optimized slurry consisting of 3 wt% H2O2, 0.5 wt% Triton X-100 at pH = 3. It is also found that the addition of different levels of oxidant H2O2 and surfactant Triton X-100 components not only increased the MRR of the 4H-SiC substrates of the Si face but also achieved a lower Sa value; in that, the polishing efficiency of the Si side of the 4H-SiC wafers and the surface quality of the 4H-SiC wafers could be effectively improved by the optimization of the polishing slurry.
