The results of wear testing of the SMIC of the copper-aluminum system at the angle of action of the abrasive relative to the metal-intermetallic layers - 0, 45 and 90º are given. It is shown that the wear resistance of SMIC is 3.2 ÷ 3.3 times higher than that of AD1 aluminum. At the same time, the samples showed the best indicators of wear resistance when the abrasive was applied to the layered structure of the tested SMIC at an angle of 45º. Analysis of the wear surfaces obtained by friction in all directions with respect to the layers of the SMIC made it possible to identify all the main morphological types of wear particles in the conglomerate. It is shown that additional saturation of the hard phases (intermetallic or abrasive) with pressed particles of soft metal layers contributes to the implementation of the Charpy principle.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the tribological effects of laser surface texturing (LST) and residual stress on functional surfaces. Design/methodology/approach Three different surface textures (circular dimple, elliptical dimple and groove) with two different textured area ratios (10 and 20 per cent) are designed and fabricated by a Picosecond Nd YAG Laser machine. The friction and wear performance of textured specimens is tested using a UMT-2 friction and wear testing machine in mixed lubrication. Findings Test results show that elliptical dimples exhibit the best performance in wear resistance, circular dimples in friction reduction and grooves in stabilization of friction. The surfaces with larger textured area density exhibit better performance in both friction reduction and wear resistance. The improved performance of LST is the coupled effect of surface texture and residual stress. Originality/value The findings of this study may provide guidance for optimal design of functional surface textures in reciprocating sliding contacts under mixed or hydrodynamic lubrication, which can be used in automotive and other industrial applications.

In this study, the boronized layers were formed on the surfaces of specimens with a composition of Fe-2 wt. % Cu-0.4 wt. % C by sintering and boronizing simultaneously, using a pack boronizing method. The processes were performed in the temperature range of 1050 - 1150 oC at a holding time of 4 hours in 97 % N2 and 3 % H2 atmosphere. Scanning electron microscopy examinations showed that the boronized layers formed on the surface of boronized and sintered specimens have a denticular morphology. The thicknesses of the boronized layers varied from 63 to 208 ?m depending on the processing temperature. The structures of the boronized layers were Fe2B and FeB confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. The microhardness values of boronized layers ranged from 1360 to 2066 HV0.3 much higher than that of substrate hardness which was about 186 HV0.3. Wear testing results showed that the wear resistance of the boronized and sintered specimens was significantly improved, resulting from increased surface microhardness.

Abstract This paper presents the results of a study on the wear resistance of plasma spray coatings made from Cr2O3-TiO2-CaF2 powders. The composite powders used were produced by self-propagating high temperature synthesis. They were then applied under various conditions in order to optimize the material system, spray process, and application procedures. Based on the results of microstructural examination and wear testing, the thermally sprayed composite coatings have excellent wear resistance, good adhesion, and are self-lubricating at high temperatures.

In this paper the tribological performance of oxide (Cr2O3, ZrO2CaO and Al203) and combined coatings applied on a commercially pure aluminum sheet were presented. Combined coatings were produced by applying Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film on the oxide coatings. Among the oxide coatings Cr2O3 exhibited the highest and Al2O3 exhibited the lowest wear resistance, in accordance with their hardness. Combined coatings exhibited superior wear resistance than oxide coatings even at heavy wear testing conditions.

The combination of heat treatment, addition of grain refiner and ECAP processing is used to improve mechanical properties and wear resistance of A356 Al alloys with 1.5 wt.% TiB2. The alloys were grouped into as-cast and pre-ECAP annealing. The alloys were characterized with hardness and wear testing, optical microscopy and SEM. The ECAP processing was done through BA route for 4 passes and it improved hardness, distribution of TiB2 and Si particles in the aluminium matrix and increased wear resitance of pre-ECAP annealing specimen.

ABSTRACT Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the surface properties (microhardness and wear resistance) of various composites and compomer materials. In addition, the methodologies used for assessing wear resistance were compared. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted using restorative material (Filtek Z250, Filtek Z350, QuiXfil, SureFil SDR, and Dyract XP) to assess wear resistance. A custom-made toothbrush simulator was employed for wear testing. Before and after wear resistance, structural, surface, and physical properties were assessed using various techniques. Results: Structural changes and mass loss were observed after treatment, whereas no significant difference in terms of microhardness was observed. The correlation between atomic force microscopy (AFM) and profilometer and between wear resistance and filler volume was highly significant. The correlation between wear resistance and microhardness were insignificant. Conclusions: The AFM presented higher precision compared to optical profilometers at a nanoscale level, but both methods can be used in tandem for a more detailed and precise roughness analysis.

Boronizing is one of the thermochemical surface treatment processes which is extensively used to obtain excellent mechanical properties such as high strength, very high hardness, good toughness and fracture toughness. In this study, AISI 1050 steel specimens have been subjected to pack boronizing process by using Ekabor 2 powder within the stainless steel seal container. The experiments were carried out at temperatures of 800 °C, 850 °C and 900 °C for 3, 6 and 9 hours to investigate the effect of these parameters on the wear resistance of boronized specimens. Pin-on-Disk wear testing is used to characterize wear properties of boronized specimens. Wear tests were performed at dry conditions under constant load of 30 N by using 220 mesh size Al2O3 abrasive paper. Different rotating speeds of the pin-on disk were selected as 300, 600, 900, 1200, 1500 revolutions for each of the test specimens. After the abrasive tests, weight losses of the specimens were measured to determine the abrasive wear resistance of boronized specimens. The results were also compared with unboronized and conventional hardened AISI 1050 steel specimens respectively.

Abstract This comprehensive program clearly shows the influence of the four defined reinforcement system variables. The tread wear testing conducted over an extremely wide severity range illustrates how the influence of each variable or factor changes as the tire use of test severity is changed. The quantitative influence of the four variables is best illustrated by the index severity gradient, while the index range serves as a quick indicator. The influence of each factor of the reinforcement system increases as general test severity is increased. Carbon blacks with high structure and surface area are substantially superior to blacks with normal structure and surface area at the higher test severities. At the higher general severities, increased oil content produces higher wear rates. At any given severity level, the rate of wear passes through a minimum as carbon black level is increased. The carbon black content at this minimum wear rate shifts to higher values as general severity is raised. Test results at a series of specific cornering force levels (0.10–0.30 g range) indicate that the relative wear of typical tread compounds demonstrates crossovers of index values. Compounds that show superior wear resistance compared to a reference compound at high cornering severities often show inferior wear resistance at low cornering severities. Therefore, for maximum tread life or wear resistance, the reinforcement system with any tread rubber or rubber blend must be carefully adjusted to the anticipated level of tire use severity. The introduction of improved-technology carbon blacks with increased rubber-black interaction that is promoted by high DBP and EMA levels is a substantial advancement in rubber materials science and is most important for the production of high-performance long-treadlife tires.

Tribology behavior of Nanodiamond(ND) polyurethane(PU)/epoxy(EP) interpenetrating polymer networks hybrid materials were tested by friction wear testing machine. Results showed that when EP content was 30%, resultant PU/EP IPNs exhibited best wear resistance. For ND-PU/EP IPNs hybrids, when the ND addition was 0.2wt%, the best wear resistant ability was obtained. Under dry condition, the effect of wear parameters, such as rotational speed, load and central distance to friction and abrasion value were also investigated.

Newer sheet alloys (such as Al, Mg, and advanced high strength steels) are considered for automotive body panels and structural parts to achieve lightweight construction. However, in addition to issues with their limited formability and high springback, tribological conditions due to increased surface hardness and higher work hardening effect necessitate the use of improved alternative die materials, coatings, lubricants to minimize the wear-related issues in stamping of such lightweight materials. This study aims to investigate and compare the wear performances of seven (7) different die materials (AISI D2, Vanadis 4, Vancron 40, K340 ISODUR, Caldie, Carmo, 0050A) using a newly developed wear testing method and device. We used DP600 sheets in the tests. Our results showed that almost all of the recently developed specially-alloyed die materials demonstrated higher wear resistance performance when compared with the performance of AISI D2 die material.
