In recent years, the engineering implications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have progressed enormously due to their versatile characteristics. In particular, the role of CNTs in improving the tribological performances of various engineering materials is well documented in the literature. In this work, an investigation has been conducted to study the tribological behaviour of CNTs filled with glass-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites in dry sliding, oil-lubricated, and gaseous (argon) environments in comparison to unfilled GFRP composites. The tribological study has been conducted on hardened steel surfaces at different loading conditions. Further, the worn surfaces have been examined for a particular rate of wear. Field-emission scanning electron (FESEM) microscopy was used to observe wear behaviours. The results of this study explicitly demonstrate that adding CNTs to GFRP composites increases wear resistance while lowering friction coefficient in all sliding environments. This has also been due to the beneficial strengthening and self-lubrication properties caused by CNTs on GFRP composites, according to FESEM research.

Increased Susceptibility

The increasing demands for lightweight design in the transport industry have led to an extensive use of lightweight materials such as aluminium alloys. The forming of aluminium sheets however presents significant challenges due to the low formability and the increased susceptibility to galling. The use of tailored workpieces and controlled die roughness surfaces are common strategies to improve the tribological behaviour, whilst galling is still not well understood. This work is aimed at analysing the interplay between the sheet and tool surface roughness on the friction and galling performance. Different degrees of Electro Discharge Texturing (EDT) textures were generated in AA1050 material strips, and tooling presenting different polishing degrees were prepared. Strip drawing tests were carried out to model the tribological condition and results were corroborated through cup drawing tests. A new galling severity index (GSI) is presented for a quick and quantitative determination of both galling occurrence and severity. The present study underlines the key role of die topography and the potential of die surface functionalization for galling prevention.

Electroless nickel-boron binary coatings were obtained with various bath compositions to investigate the effect of bath parameters on tribological and mechanical behaviours of the coating. Characterisation of the coating for surface morphology and phase structure is done using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD), respectively, whereas tribological behaviour of coatings is evaluated on a pin-on-disc tribo-tester. Elastic modulus and surface hardness of coatings have been obtained using nano-indentation technique, while the scratch behaviour of the coatings has been determined using micro-scratch test. Corrosion resistance of coatings is also determined. It is observed that surface roughness of the coatings increased with increase in sodium borohydride concentration but decreased slightly with increase in nickel chloride concentration. Friction and wear characteristics are found to increase with surface roughness which occurs due to increased boron content. Surface hardness and scratch hardness are also seen to vary with coating bath parameters.

Purpose: A new composite material was prepared and Different properties such as hardness and tribological behaviour of the fabricated metal matrix composite (MMC) was investigated and compared with the base AZ61A magnesium alloy. Design/methodology/approach: For the current research work, state-of-the-art technology, Friction stir processing (FSP) was performed to develop magnesium based AZ61A/TiC composite at optimized set of machine parameters. Findings: Increasing tool rotational speed ultimately leads in enhanced hardness, which further gives superior tribological properties as compared to base AZ61A alloy. Wear observations suggests a combination of abrasive and adhesive wear mechanism. Research limitations/implications: More microstructural and mechanical properties can be examined. Practical implications: The idea behind selecting AZ61A is mainly due to its increasing use in bicycle pedals and military equipment’s where at certain places it needs to encounter friction. In this current work, microhardness study and wear behaviour of AZ61A/TiC composite processed via FSP were examined. Originality/value: Paper is completely new and no work has been done till date considering this material and preparing composite with nanoparticles TiC.
