METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------

Description of methods used for collection/generation of data: Mechanical properties was collected using a Micro Materials NanoTest Vantage system equipped with a Berkovich diamond indenter.
The nanohardness (H) and reduced Young’s Modulus (Er) were calculated using Oliver-Pharr methodology. 
Cumulative volume loss was collected using an ultrasonic induced cavitation device (UIP 1000 hdT, Hielscher Ultrasound Technology). 

Methods for processing the data: the submitted data were generated from collected data.

Software- or Instrument-specific information needed to interpret the data, including software and hardware version numbers:

Standards and calibration information, if appropriate: Nanoindentation tests were calibrated by using a standard fused silica sample. 
                                                       Cumulative volume loss were conducted with procedures following ASTM G32-92.  

Environmental/experimental conditions: Cumulative volume loss tests were conducted in a distilled water bath maintained at laboratory temperature (~ 25 °C).

Describe any quality-assurance procedures performed on the data:
