Reciprocating sliding friction experiments were conducted with a natural diamond flat, diamond films, and low- and high-density diamondlike carbon (DLC) films in contact with pin specimens of natural diamond and silicon nitride (Si3N4) both in humid air and in dry nitrogen. The results indicated that for natural diamond pin contacts the diamond films and the natural diamond flat were not susceptible to moisture but that moisture could increase both the coefficients of friction and wear factors of the DLC films. The coefficients of friction and wear factors of the diamond films were generally similar to those of the natural diamond flat both in humid air and in dry nitrogen. In dry nitrogen the coefficients of friction of the high-density DLC films in contact with pin specimens of both diamond and Si3N4 were generally low (about 0.02) and similar to those of the natural diamond flat and the diamond films. The wear factors of the materials in contact with both natural diamond and Si3N4 were generally in the ascending order of natural diamond flat, diamond film, high-density DLC film, and low-density DLC film. Moisture in the environment increased the coefficients of friction for Si3N4 pins in contact with all the materials (natural diamond flat, diamond films, and DLC films). This increase in friction is due to the silicon oxides film produced on the surface of Si3N, pins in humid air.
