In order to choose the rubber material and improve the service life of Progressing Cavity Pump (PCP ) when exploiting offshore crude oil, it is important to analyze friction and wear behaviour of stator and rotor of PCP in the mixture of crude oil with different water content. The friction and wear test about Nitrile -Butadiene Rubber (NBR) and Fluorine Rubber (FKM) were carried on ring-on-block tester, the wear loss was observed by electron microscope, the wear mechanism was also discussed. The results show that: (1) FKM owns better wearing resistance than NBR in the mixture of crude oil with different water content; (2) when the content of water in the mixture is less than 26%, the frictional coefficient of sample is 0.05, due to the oil film between the friction pairs; (3) when the content of water in the mixture is more than 26%, the frictional coefficient increases to 0.4, because of the water film between the friction pairs.

The progressing cavity pump (PCP) always works in the waxy oil well. Therefore the research on the influence of various liquid paraffin contents in crude oil on the friction and wear behaviors of the progressing cavity pump`s stator is very important for choosing the best stator rubber and developing the service life of PCP. Wear behavior of nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) and fluororubber (FKM) was investigated at room temperature using a reciprocating friction and wear testing machine under the various paraffin contents in crude oil (0%、10%、30%、50%、100%). The wear morphology of blend was analyzed through the stereomicroscope and the wear behavior of two blends was also discussed and compared. The results show that the wear resistance of FKM is better than that of NBR under the same paraffin content in crude oil; With the increase of the paraffin content, the wear and coefficient of friction also increase. When the paraffin content in crude oil is less than 30%, the wear loss of NBR and FKM are basically the same; When the paraffin content in crude oil is more than 30%, the wear loss of NBR is far more than that of FKM.

The effect of load on the friction and wear behavior of NBR and FPM was investigated using a ring-on-block tester under dry sliding. The hardness and morphology of worn surface were measured using Shore Hardness and stereo microscope, respectively. The results showed that at the load of 50, 100 and 150N, the wear loss of NBR was lower than that of FPM and the frictional coefficient of NBR was the same as that of FPM. While at the load of 175, 200 and 225N, the wear loss and frictional coefficient of NBR were higher than that of FPM. The reason for the variation of friction and wear behavior of NBR and FPM under different load was discussed preliminarily.

In this paper, the friction and wear behavior of FKM, NBR and FKM/NBR blends with the same Shore hardness was investigated in the MPV - 600 wear tester under water lubrication based on the actual working parameters of the screw pump. Wear mechanism of FKM/NBR blends with different load was also analyzed according to their wear loss and frictional coefficient. The results showed that the wear resistance of NBR was improved by the addition FKM. FKM/NBR blend with ratio of 2:8 owned the optimal wear resistance, which was close to that of FKM. The wear of FKM and FKM/NBR blend with ratio of 2:8 was controlled by fatigue wear, and the others were mainly controlled by abrasive wear.

Abrasion Testing

The wear behavior of stator rubber in the natural medium of crude oil in oil-drilling screw pumps directly matters to its service life and sealing property. The premature failure of stator rubber is the main cause for the shortening life of screw pumps. In order to study the wear mechanism of NBR and FPM, a friction wear test was conducted at room temperature by using a MPV-600 micro-computer-controlling grain-abrasion testing machine, in which NBR, FPM and 45# steal pair are the testing subjects. SEM was afterwards employed to observe the surface topography before and after the rubber wear. The test result shows that at the constant low load, the wear extent of FPM increases in a stable, linear way when the rotor rotating speed increases, and the wear extent of NBR increases with the increasing speed of the rotor rotating speed. However, when the rotating speed is over 400r/min, the wear extent of NBR decreases instead. This might be attributed to the improvement of the local lubrication state on the friction surface. Much consistence is indicated in the changing rule of the friction coefficient of the two types of rubber and the changing wear extent with the rotating speed. At the constant, low rotating speed, the wear extent of NBR and FPM basically increases linearly, while the friction coefficient of NBR, FPM and steel pair decreases with the increasing load.

The effect of tungsten carbide (WC) particulate fillers incorporation on two-body abrasive wear behaviour of glass fabric reinforced-epoxy (GE) composites was investigated and findings are interpreted. The wear behaviour of the composites were performed using pin-on-disc tester at varying abrasive distances viz., 25,50,75 and 100 m at a constant load of 20 N. The experiment was conducted using two different water proof silicon carbide (SiC) abrasive papers and at two different velocity under multi-pass condition. The wear loss of the composites found increasing with increase in abrading distances. A significant reduction in wear loss and specific wear rates were noticed after incorporation of WC filler into GE composite. This result indicates a significant improvement in wear resistance after incorporation of WC filler. The WC loaded systems exhibit less wear of matrix during abrasion which in turn facilitates lower fiber damage, due to the presence of WC particles on the counter surface which act as a transfer layer and effective barrier to prevent large-scale fragmentation. The worn out surface features were examined through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in order to probe the wear mechanism.

The AA7075-4%TiC metal matrix composite produced through in-situ casting technique was hot extruded and subjected to annealing at 415°C for 150 minutes. Another set of hot extruded AA7075-4%TiC metal matrix composite was heat treated to T6 condition. Dry sliding wear test was conducted with different sliding speeds and loads for both annealed and T6 conditioned composites to compare their wear behaviour. It was observed that irrespective of the heat treatment conditions, the depth of wear, decreases with increasing sliding velocity for all the loads tested and increases with increasing load for all the sliding velocities.

Friction And Wear Properties

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.

A new iron-based wear resistance alloy was developed to replace the Co-containing Stellite 6 alloys in nuclear power industry. The effect of B addition on the wear resistance was investigated. Sliding wear tests of Fe-Cr-C-Si-xB (x = 0.0, 0.3, 0.6, 1.0 and 2.0 wt%) alloys were performed in air at the room temperature under a contact stress of 103 MPa. Low-boron alloys containing less than 0.6 wt% boron showed an excellent wear resistance than any other tested alloys. The improvement was associated with the matrix hardening by promotion of the γ→α′straininduced martensitic transformation occurring during the wear test. However, the alloys containing more than 1.0 wt% boron showed slightly increased wear loss compared to the low-boron alloys because of the absence of the strain-induced martensitic transformation and the presence of the brittle FeB particles, aiding crack initiation.

Friction and wear control of movable parts in machines remain a critical challenge in the industries. Determination of measurement to control this often involves both the material and the lubricant. A wear test experiment using pin-on-disk apparatus to determine the wear pattern on a sample of aluminium and copper materials, lubricated with vegetable oil of palm kernel origin was conducted. Wear parameters, which include frictional coefficient, wear rate, and heat generation (temperature) were evaluated alongside thermal stress-strains on the pin on disk. Results showed that under the same conditions, the coefficient of friction reduces with the application of lubricant up to 84% and 7% for aluminium and copper respectively. The wear pattern for both materials when lubricated were evaluated and compared with dry condition to establish the relationships.

The piston pin contact in a typical automotive engine is an example of a highly loaded. Therefore, for piston pin design several aspects are important. Among them are function, cost, NVH, fuel economy, durability, and impact on other design aspects of the engine. Continuously contacting with piston pin, the face of connecting rod, brings about abnormal wear such as unfairwear or earlywear. because the engine get more powered and one requirement for a good fuel economy is to achieve a low level of mechanical friction. In this study, modern low friction coatings and treatment at the piston pin interface aimed to investigate the potential. The profile of coated specimens were observed by non-contact type optical surface measuring system and the friction-wear behaviors of coated specimens were investigated by using piston pin wear tester. Piston pin wear test was performed to analyze the friction and wear behavior. The results showed that the application of low friction coatings and treatment effectively improved tribological performance of the piston pin
