This paper studies the nanotribological behavior of magnetic rigid disks dip-coated with ultra thin perfluoropolyether (PFPE) Z-Dol 4000 lubricant layers up to 4 nm thick prior to or after exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation. Lube bonding ratios (LBRs) of 43–91% were achieved by varying the UV irradiation time. The nanotribological and mechanical properties of the disks were measured with a nanotribometer under varying loading conditions. The effect of the LBR on the nanotribological behavior of the disks was also elucidated. We found that the lubricated disks after UV treatment performed better compared to the lubricated disks without UV treatment. The experimental results indicated that the LBR of about 50% could achieve the best contact-start–stop and flyability performances.

This study tested the following hypotheses: 1. increasing light irradiation time (IT) produces greater values of superficial hardness on different depths (0 and 3 mm); and 2. a dark shade composite (A3) needs longer IT than a light shade composite (A1) to produce similar hardness. Disk-shaped specimens (n=24 per shade) were fabricated using a 3-mm-thick increment of composite resin (Z100). Specimens were randomly assigned to 3 groups (n=8) according to the IT (400 mW/cm2) at the upper (U) surface: A1-10 and A3-10: 10 s; A1-20 and A3-20: 20 s; A1-40 and A3-40: 40 s. Specimens were stored in black lightproof containers at 37ºC for 24 h before indentation in a hardness tester. Three Vickers indentations were performed on the U and lower (L) surfaces of each specimen. The indent diagonals were measured and the hardness value calculated. The results were analyzed statistically by ANOVA and Tukey's test (alpha=0.05). Statistically significant differences were found between U and L surfaces of each composite shade-IT combination (p=0.0001) and among the ITs of same shade-surface combination (p=0.0001), except between groups A1-20U and A1-40U, confirming the study hypothesis 1 and partially rejecting the hypothesis 2.
