CERTESS®CARBON DCY DLC Coating
Category: DLC Certess Coating
Description
CERTESS®CARBON DCY is a dense, metastable form of hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) containing significant SP3 bonding. This process of bonding carbon and hydrogen confers valuable 'diamond-like' properties such as mechanical hardness, low friction, optical transparency and chemical inertness. CERTESS®CARBON DCY also has an amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H) layer with an optimized metallic sublayer for high load application.
