The relevance of the search for solutions to increase the wear resistance of bucket teeth of excavating machine type front shovel is analyzed. The reasons for the wear of the teeth are considered. It is determined that when excavating machines work for rocks of VIII and IX categories, impact-abrasive wear of the inner side of the teeth and abrasive external wear occurs. It is proved that the cold-work hardening of Hadfield steel (the teeth material), which occurs during the excavating machine teeth work in the rocks of VIII and IX categories, reduces the impact-abrasive wear rate on the inner side of the teeth and does not affect the abrasive wear of the outer. The methods for thermomechanical treatment of the outer side of the excavating machine tooth is proposed. It can increase the wear resistance of Hadfield steel (110G13L) up to 1.7 times and lead to the self-sharpening effect of the tooth due to equalization of the wear rate of the outer and inner parts of the tooth. The efficiency factor of thermomechanical treatment to reduce the of abrasive wear rate of Hadfield steel is experimentally proved.

The wear resistances of four standard-grade high-alumina ceramics were evaluated and related to their machining ability. Three of the material grades contained 96% of alumina and 4% of either calcium silicate, or magnesium silicate, or manganese titanate in the starting-powder composition. The nominal alumina content in the fourth material was 99.7%. The specimens were fabricated using a low-pressure injection-molding forming technique, followed by thermal de-binding and sintering. After sintering the four materials differ significantly in their grain size, bending strength and Vickers hardness. No direct relationship between the microstructural parameters and the mechanical properties was found, but there was a grain-size dependence of the surface finish after grinding under industrial conditions. The two silicate-containing ceramics exhibited considerably higher wear resistances than the two silicate-free ceramics, but no direct relationship between the abrasive wear rate during grinding and the cutting time was observed. The cutting ability represents a valuable material characteristic for industrial practice, but it should not be directly used for predicting the wear rate during grinding. Quantitative differences in the cutting time and abrasive wear rate were manifested in the different topographies of the worn surfaces. Cutting resulted in relatively large area fractions of plastically deformed surfaces, whereas pullouts dominated the worn surfaces after grinding.

In this study, the effect of different counterparts on the wear resistance of AA6082 aluminum alloy was investigated. In tests using pin-on-disk method, 6 mm diameter Al2O3, 100Cr6 and WC-6Co balls were used as counterparts. The tests were carried out using 500 m sliding distance and 5N load. The lowest specific wear rate was measured as 7.58x10-4 mm3/Nm in WC-6Co / AA6082 couple, and the highest value was measured as 9.71x10-4 mm3/Nm in 100Cr6/AA6082 couple. In the Al2O3/AA6082 couple, the specific wear rate of the AA6082-T6 sample was determined as 8.23x10-4 mm3/Nm.While it was observed that the dominant wear type in the 100Cr6/AA6082 pair was abrasive wear, oxidation wear and oxide tribofilm were detected in the WC-6Co/AA6082 and Al2O3/AA6082 couple besides the abrasive wear.

Background: Grooves may inevitably occur on the surface of the friction pair caused by severe wear or residual stress, which will play an important role on the reliability of machine parts during operation. Objective: The effect of the micro-grooves perpendicular to sliding direction on the wear performance of the friction pairs should be studied. Method: Micro-grooves can be machined on discs of friction pairs using electrical discharge machining. On-line visual ferrograph method was used to monitor the wear process to research the wear rate changing characteristic. Profilemeter and metallurgical microscope were used to observe the wear scars. Results: Comparing to the non-groove test, i) in one-groove test, wear volume and rate were approximate the same, and the wear scar was smooth, ii) when the grooves more than 4, the test running-in stage will be obviously prolonged, particularly for the test with 8 grooves on the disc, the duration of running-in stage is 4 times than that without grooves on specimen, and the wear rate and volume increase significantly, and then decrease with fluctuation, iii) the abrasive wear can be avoid with the debris stagnating in the groove, however, fatigue wear will significantly emerge. Conclusion: Abrasive wear can be avoided and smooth running-in surfaces can be obtained with proper amount of initial radial micro-grooves.

Purpose This study aims to investigate the production and abrasive wear rate of functionally graded TiB2/Al composites. TiB2 particles have been spontaneously formed in liquid matrix using in situ technique. The properties of composites such as hardness, abrasive wear rate and microstructure have been examined. Design/methodology/approach In situ TiB2 reinforcement phase was synthesized by using a liquid Al–Ti–B system. A semi-solid composite (Al(l)-TiB2(s)) prepared at 900°C was solidified under a centrifugal force to both grade functionally and give the final shape to materials. Abrasive wear test of materials was conducted using the pin-on-disk method at room temperature. The wear tests were carried out with two different loads of 1 Newton (N) and 2 N, a sliding velocity of 3.5 m s−1 and a sliding distance of 75 m. Findings This research provided the following findings; TiB2 particles can be successfully synthesized with in situ reaction technique in molten aluminum. It was determined that abrasive wear rate increases with increasing load and decreases with increasing TiB2 reinforcement content within matrix. Originality/value In previous studies, there have been many trials on the in situ production of TiB2-reinforced aluminum matrix composites. However, there are few studies on production of in situ TiB2-reinforced aluminum matrix functionally graded materials. At the same time, there is no study that the properties of composite, such as hardness and abrasive wear rate, are examined together according to centrifugal force.

This paper presents an experimental investigation carried out to compare specific wear rate and surface morphology between two types of natural fibres namely kenaf and oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB). Kenaf fibres were received in long fiber size and OPEFB in different sizes (100, 125, 180 and 250 μm). Both materials were mixed with the epoxy resin to produce epoxy composites. Wear tests were carried out using Abrasion Resistance Tester in dry sliding condition. These tests were performed at room temperature for different loads and at a constant sliding velocity of 1.4m/s. Based on the results, the specific wear rate of Kenaf Fibre composite starts to converge to one similar value beyond 6km distance. In the case of OPEFB epoxy composite, it was found the fiber size of 100 um has produced the highest specific wear rate.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the tribological properties of the WC/TiC-Co substrate under different loading conditions under three impact abrasive wear conditions. Design/methodology/approach The three body collisional wear behavior of Co alloy with WC and TiC at three impact energy was studied from 1 to 3 J. Meanwhile, the microstructure, hardness, phase transformation and wear behavior of these specimens were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, Rockwell hardness (HRV), EDS and impact wear tester. The resulting wear rate was quantified by electronic balance measurements under different pressures. Findings The specific wear rate increases with the increase of the nonlinearity of the impact energy and the increase in the content of WC or TiC. The effect of TiC on wear rate is greater than that of WC, but the hardness is smaller. The wear characteristics of the samples are mainly characterized by three kinds of behavior, such as cutting wear, abrasive wear and strain fatigue wear. The WC-Co with fewer TiC samples suffered heavier abrasive wear than the more TiC samples under both low and high impact energy and underwent fewer strain fatigue wears under high impact energy. Originality/value The experimental results show that the wear resistance of the Co alloy is improved effectively and the excellent impact wear performance is achieved. The results can be used in cutting tools such as coal mine cutting machines or other fields.

Purpose In hot forging, a significant amount of forging force is used for overcoming frictional force at the die-billet interface. The high frictional force along with thermomechanical stress lead to wear, plastic deformation, mechanical fatigue and cracks, which reduce the service life of hot forging dies. Of all these different types of issues, wear is the predominant mode of failure in hot forging dies. This paper aims to describe mechanisms of wear transition in different loads at near forging temperature, occurring during sliding of chromium-based H11 tool steel specimens. Design/methodology/approach High temperature pin-on-disc tests are performed with pin specimens machined from bars of X38CrMoV5 steel, heat treated to surface hardness of 40-42 HRc. The disc is made of EN 31 steel with hardness of 60-62 HRc. Tests are performed at constant temperature of 500°C, and the normal load was varied from 20 to 70 N. Findings Scanning electron microscopy investigations on worn surface have revealed that wear is primarily due to abrasion and plastic deformation. The test results show an increasing trend in wear rate with increase in load up to 30 N, followed by a reversal in trend until 50 N. This transition in wear rate is caused by development of wear resistant layers, which are formed by compaction of wear debris particles on to the worn surfaces. These compact layers are found to be stable during load range from 40 and 50 N. However, with further increase in load, abrasive wear tracks are observed without any evidence of protective layers. As a result, there is an increase in wear rate with increase in loads above 50 N. In addition, plastic shearing was dominant over abrasive wear at this load regime. Originality/value The study on wear behaviour of H11 hot forging steel at 20 to 70 N will be an input to the research in hot forming industries.

Polypropylene/organo-montmorillonite (PP/OMMT) composites were investigated by XRD. Friction and wear behaviors of this composites sliding against GCr15 stainless steel were examined on M-2000 text rig in a ring-on-block configuration. Worn surfaces of PP and its composites were analyzed by SEM. The result shows that PP macromolecule chains have intercalated into OMMT layers and form intercalated nanocomposites. With the increase of mass fraction of OMMT, both wear rate and friction coefficient of composites first decrease then rise. With the increase of load, from 150 N, 200 N to 250 N, wear rate of composites increases, while friction coefficient reduces. The wear mechanisms of composites are connected with the content of OMMT. Composites were dominated by adhesive wear, abrasive wear and adhesive wear accompanied by abrasive wear respectively with the increase of OMMT content.
