AbstractThis paper examines the effect of dispersant and anti-wear additives on fretting wear in lubricated bearing steel contacts. Reciprocating sliding ball-on-flat fretting tests with a stroke length of 50 μm have been carried out on steel-to-steel contacts in both dry and lubricated conditions. Wear and friction coefficient have been measured, and surface characterisation has been carried out using optical techniques to investigate fretting wear. The presence of base oil reduces fretting wear markedly compared to dry conditions, but fretting damage is still observed at low reciprocation frequencies. As frequency is increased, there is a transition from oxidative to adhesive/scuffing damage. The anti-wear additive ZDDP is effective in forming a tribofilm on the surfaces and reducing visible oxidation and wear. A succinimide dispersant also reduces the accumulation of solid debris but does not alleviate wear damage. The combination of both ZDDP anti-wear additive and dispersant in base oil appears to provide significant protection against fretting wear.

This article reviews fretting wear damage in industries and in the contact mechanics of coated systems. Micro-slip motion resulting in fretting damage is discussed along with major experimental factors. The experimental factors, including normal force, relative displacement, frequency and medium influence are directly compared. Industrial solutions to reduce fretting damages are then discussed. The contact mechanics of a coated system are reviewed to quantify stress states in a coating layer and the substrate. Finally, a literature review on simulation for fretting is carried out. This review study provides useful methods and practical solutions to minimize fretting wear damage.

A N-containing additive, amide type modified rapeseed oil (named as NRO), was prepared by chemical modification of rapeseed oil and characterized by infrared spectrum The friction and wear performances of AZ91D magnesium alloy against GCr15 bearing steel under the lubrication of rapeseed oil formulated with NRO were evaluated on a SRV tribotester. The topographies and the chemical species of the worn surfaces of magnesium alloy were analyzed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and an X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS), respectively. The results indicated that the friction and wear of the magnesium alloy—steel tribomates could be effectively reduced by formulating NRO into rapeseed oil lubricant. The friction coefficients and the wear volumes of magnesium alloy decreased with increasing contents of NRO. The surface lubricated with NRO-doped rapeseed oil was characterized by less wear as compared with that lubricated with neat rapeseed oil. The enhanced anti-wear and friction-reducing abilities of rapeseed oil by NRO in the lubrication of magnesium alloy against steel were ascribed to the formation of a composite boundary lubrication film due to the strong adsorption of NRO and rapeseed oil onto the lubricated surfaces and their tribochemical reactions with magnesium alloy.

Under certain operating conditions, rolling contacts have been shown to experience some challenges when lubricated with engine oils containing zinc dialkyldithophosphate (ZDDP) anti-wear additive. In order to better understand the main damage mechanisms during various operating conditions, further studies are needed. This article studies micro-pitting and wear damages of bearing steel surfaces under mixed lubrication conditions in a ball-on-disc setup, lubricated with different engine oils. Based on the results, micro-pitting and wear damage is shown to be highly case-dependent. In general, PAO-based engine oil tends to eliminate micro-pitting damage compared to mineral-based engine oil at less severe lubricating conditions. Moreover, a critical lambda was found for both oils, where the highest micro-pitting damage was observed.

A top-down approach is employed to investigate the tribological effect of adding nanographite platelets (NGPs) to mineral base oil (MBO). The performance of the NGP-modified MBO was evaluated by examining the friction and anti-wear properties. Four different types of NGPs produced by two different processes were employed. The optimal NGP-modified MBO attained a significant wear and friction reduction when compared with the MBO without NGPs. The process used to exfoliate the graphite nanoplatelet samples provided better wear properties because of the graphene layers' smoother sliding mechanism. Graphene layers seeped inside the groove marks to keep the friction coefficient low.

Fretting occurs at the contact area between two materials under load and in the presence of minute relative surface motion by vibration or external force. Bearings, clutches, riveted and bolted lap joints are subjected to fretting damage. Friction coefficient, materials of the specimen, contact surface pressure, relative slip amplitudes, temperatures and environment have an effect on the fretting. In this study, fretting wear test is conducted with SCM415 (Cr–Mo alloy steel) which are much used for making gears and shafts because of its excellent machinability, good mechanical properties and low cost, compared with those of the existing machine structural steels. In order to determine the fretting wear type, fretting wear fixture which can be attached to the servo hydraulic fatigue testing machine is made. And then, specimens and fretting pad with a constant curvature are made of SCM415 materials. Different normal forces and displacement amplitudes are applied to the fretting pad and diamond-like carbon (DLC) is coated on the fretting pad for fretting wear test.
