Poly(ether sulfone) (PES) with high coefficient of friction (COF) and wear rate needs treatment to enhance its tribological property in engineering plastic area. Here, the low surface energy of perfluorocarbon chains terminated poly (ether sulfone) (PES-F) had been used to improve the tribological property of such self-lubricating materials. In this research, the performance enhancement due to the existence of perfluorocarbon group on the material surface was discussed on improvement of anti-friction and wear resistance. On the premise of mechanical strength guarantee, the variation regularity of COF and volume wear rate of PES-F were quantitatively analyzed through the pin-on-disc wear test apparatus, combined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. It was found that PES-F exhibited the best tribological property during the initial phases of friction test, attributing to the highest content of F on the material surface. Observation of PES-F worn surface and wear debris revealed that the COF and wear rate of modified PES were decreased not only due to the effect of perfluorocarbon group but also by the change of worn surface morphology, both of which were the main reasons for anti-friction and anti-wear property enhancement.

MoSi2 was prepared by SHS, and then pressed under 300 MPa at room temperature and sintered at 1600 °C for 1 h in a vacuum furnace. The tribological properties of MoSi2 against Al2O3 in the temperature range from 700°C to 1100 °C were investigated. Microphotographs and phases of the worn surface of MoSi2 were observed by SEM and XRD. Results showed that MoSi2 has well friction and wear properties below 900 °C. When temperature rises from 900 °C to 1000 °C, wear rate of MoSi2 is raised by 20.8% which is attribute to the change of wear mechanism. The main wear mechanisms of MoSi2 are adhesion and oxidation at high temperatures. When over 900 °C, because of ductile - brittle transition characteristic of this material, plastic deformation and fracture are also found on the worn surface of MoSi2. This leads to the high wear rate of MoSi2.

The thermal conductivity of a metallic test piece is one of the principal parameters that influence the temperature buildup at tribocontacts and this normally plays an important role in the unlubricated dry sliding wear of metallic materials. It is, however, not clear whether thermal conductivity is an equally important parameter in the case of wear of metals at cryogenic temperatures, in particular, at liquid nitrogen temperature (LN2) of −196°C. In order to assess the influence of such a physical property of selected nonferrous metals on their tribological behavior in the LN2 environment, we have studied the friction and wear properties of high purity copper (Cu) and titanium (Ti) against the bearing grade steel. These two materials have been processed to produce samples of comparable hardness that have widely different thermal conductivities at room temperature and at test temperature. Wear tests were conducted at three different sliding speeds (0.89 m/s, 1.11 m/s, and 1.34 m/s) under 10 N load, and the friction and wear data were compared. Ti exhibited an order of magnitude higher wear rate (∼10−3 mm3/N m) as compared with Cu in identical test conditions. While evidences of abrasive wear and adhesive wear, without any oxidative wear, were found in worn Cu surfaces, worn Ti surfaces showed evidences of significant oxidative wear and mechanical damage of tribolayers. Higher wear rate in Ti appeared to be a result of oxidative wear of Ti, which seemed to be driven by the depletion of LN2 blanket at the tribocontacts under the influence of high flash temperature (14–76°C) as compared with the boiling temperature of LN2(−196°C). These results demonstrate that the materials with similar hardness subjected to identical LN2 wear test conditions can have significantly different wear rates because of the difference in the flash temperatures, which depend on the thermal conductivity of the test pieces.

This paper presents a facile and effective method for preparing Ni/NbSe2 composites in order to improve the wettability of NbSe2 and copper matrix, which is helpful in enhancing the friction-reducing and anti-wear properties of copper-based composites. The powder metallurgy (P/M) technique was used to fabricate copper-based composites with different weight fractions of Ni/NbSe2, and tribological properties of composites were evaluated by using a ball-on-disk friction-and-wear tester. Results indicated that tribological properties of copper-based composites were improved by the addition of Ni/NbSe2. In particular, copper-based composites containing 15 wt.% Ni/NbSe2 showed the lowest friction coefficient (0.16) and wear rate (4.1 × 10−5 mm3·N−1·m−1) among all composites.

Lubricated sliding wear of amorphous (Zr55Cu30Ni10Al5)99.98Sc0.02/CuZr2 nanocrystal composite bulk metallic glasses (BMG) under various sliding velocities with a load of 20 N was investigated using the pin-on-disk test. After the wear test involving oil lubrication was performed, there was no wear induced new-phase transformation in the sample surface. Friction coefficients were within the range from 0.22 to approximately 0.29 under a 20-N load at different sliding velocities. Therefore, the calculated friction coefficients clearly indicated that the adhesion wear dominated from the experimental results. This deformation behavior resulted in a higher wear rate and wear coefficient. In addition, worn surfaces were characterized and examined under a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and optical microscope. The mechanism of high wear rate was clarified.

In this study, the CoCrAlYTa-10%Al2O3 coatings were prepared by the high-velocity oxygen-fuel (HVOF) spraying. A series of ball-on-disk sliding wear tests were conducted to evaluate the tribological properties of the coatings at different temperatures (25 °C, 200 °C, 400 °C, and 600 °C). The results showed that the average coefficients of friction (COFs) of the CoCrAlYTa-10%Al2O3 coatings were lower than that of H13 steel at different temperatures. The average COFs of the CoCrAlYTa-10%Al2O3 coatings and H13 steel both decreased with increasing temperature. The wear rate of the CoCrAlYTa-10%Al2O3 coatings increased first and then decreased. The microhardness of worn surface of the CoCrAlYTa-10%Al2O3 coatings increased with increasing temperature, while the microhardness of worn surface of H13 steel at 25 °C and 200°C was higher than that at 400 °C and 600 °C. The wear mechanism of the two materials was mainly abrasive wear. The tribofilms were formed on the worn surface of the CoCrAlYTa-10%Al2O3 coatings, which had a good protective effect. Due to thermal softening and low binding strength of debris, it was difficult for H13 steel to form the tribofilms. The wear rate of H13 steel was much higher than that of the CoCrAlYTa-10%Al2O3 coatings at 400 °C and 600 °C, indicating that the high temperature wear resistance of the coatings was much better than that of H13 steel.

A series of room temperature ionic liquids bearing with phosphonyl groups on the imidazolium cations, namely, 1-(3′-O,O-diethylphosphonyl-n-propyl)-3-alkylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, were prepared and their physical properties were determined. They were also evaluated as promising lubricants for the contacts of aluminum on steel by using a SRV test rig. The tribological test results show that the synthetic ionic liquids exhibit better friction-reducing and antiwear abilities than the unsubstituted ionic liquid of 1-ethyl-3-hexylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (coded as L206) and phosphazene (X-1P). Both the anions and the side substitutes attached to the imidazolium cations affect the tribological performance of lubricants. The scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive x-ray analysis, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses of the worn surfaces show that complicated tribochemical reactions are involved in the sliding process. The anion decomposition and chemical adsorption of cation took place on the worn surface of aluminum alloy during the sliding process. As a result of the generation of boundary lubrication films which are composed of metal fluorides, B2O3, BN, nitrogen oxide, and FePO4 help to effectively reduce the friction and wear of the contacts.

A composite layer was prepared on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy surface by ion nitriding, magnetron sputtering Mo and ion sulfurizing composite treatment technique. The phase structure, morphology, and cross-sectional element distribution of composite layer were analyzed. Friction and wear properties of composite layer were tested by MM-200 laboratory tester. XRD analysis showed that the composite layer was mainly comprised of Ti, Mo, MoS2, TiN, and transition layer. This composite layer is perfect wear-resistant surface due to existence of self-lubricating MoS2 on hard Mo and TiN layers with good anti-friction ability. Thereby, the results of friction and wear test showed that anti-wear performance of Ti-6Al-4V alloy after composite treatment was remarkably improved under dry and sliding conditions. Both the friction coefficient and the wear loss of the nitriding-Mo plating-sulfurizing layers were lower than that of the nitriding layer due to the formation of the MoS2 layer on Mo and TiN layers.
