Incorporation of metallic elements, titanium and copper, into carbonaceous mesophase (CM) was performed through mechanical alloying in a ball mill apparatus. The structures of the raw CM as well as the Ti/Cu-added CM were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The tribological behavior of the Ti/Cu-added CM used as lubricating additives was investigated by using a high temperature friction and wear tester. The results show that, compared with the raw CM, the Ti/Cu-added CM exhibits a drop in the crystallinity and a transition to the amorphous. The Ti/Cu-added CM used as lubricating additive displays an obvious high temperature anti-friction and wear resistance effect, and the lager the applied load, the lower the friction coefficient and the wear severity.

Wear behaviours of La2O3-MoSi2composite against SiC under different loads at 1000°C and 0.126m/s sliding speed in air were investigated by using an XP-5 type high temperature friction and wear tester. The worn surfaces and phase of the sample were observed by scanning election microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. Results showed that friction coefficient and wear rate of La2O3-MoSi2composite and SiC decreased with the increase of loads. The wear mechanisms of La2O3-MoSi2composite are oxidation, adhesion abrasion and fatigue pitting.

The 31CrMoV9 steels were plasma nitrided under different gas mixture ratios to investigate an influence of nitrogen amount on wear behavior. The structure, mechanical and tribological behavior of untreated and nitrided 31CrMoV9 steels were analyzed with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), microhardness device, 3D profilometer and pin-on-disk wear tester. The analysis outcomes displayed that the compound layer consists of nitride phases (Fe2N, Fe3N, Fe4N and CrN). Additionally, the thickness of the compound layers, surface hardness and roughness increased with increasing nitrogen amount in the gas mixture. The highest friction coefficient value was obtained at nitrogen amount of 50%, but the lowest value was seen at nitrogen amount of 6%. It was observed that wear resistance of 31CrMoV9 steel improved after plasma nitriding, and the best wear resistance was also obtained from plasma nitrided sample at the gas mixture of 94% H[Formula: see text]% N2.

Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), VSP electrochemical workstation and friction and wear tester equipment are applied for comparing the effects on organizations and properties of micro-arc oxidation fabricated on a piece of aluminum alloy sample with additives of La (NO3)3 or Ce (SO4)2. The results revealed that both coatings with these two different additives are consisted of α-Al2O3 and γ-Al2O3, but the peaks of main phases are evident with La (NO3)3. Compared the two different coatings, it could be found that less micro-cracks can be observed from the coating with La (NO3)3 additive. Beside this, aperture in this coating is also smaller and corrosion resistance and wear resistance are much better.

Silicon 〈111〉 single crystals were implanted with 70 keV Ar ions to the dose of 1017 ions/cm2. Next, the friction coefficient between a Si crystal and a hard steel ball was measured using a pin-on-disk setup in air and in vacuum. The wear tracks were measured using a surface profilometer. For measurements performed in vacuum, a strong influence of implantation on friction force and wear tracks was found. The microstructure of the samples was subsequently investigated using RBS, ERD, and x-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. Micro-RBS measurements showed that Ar had been removed from the wear tracks, despite their continued exhibition of low friction.

Wear behaviors of MoSi2against Al2O3or SiC under 30N at 1000°C in air have been investigated by using an XP-5 type High Temperature Friction and Wear Tester. The worn surfaces and phases of samples were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffractometer, respectively. Result shows the wear rate and friction coefficient of MoSi2decreases with the increase of sliding speed. SiC is superior to Al2O3as the counter-face materials of MoSi2. Serious adhesion leads to very high wear rate of Al2O3in this experiment. SiC shows a surprising mass weighing phenomenon, which is caused by oxidation. The main wear mechanism of MoSi2against Al2O3is oxidation and adhesion. However when against SiC, it is chiefly controlled by grinding.

A mixture of expanded graphite (EG) and boron was ball-milled in a high-energy mill. The microstructure of the milled EG/B powders was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The tribological behavior of the milled powders used as lubricating additive was investigated by using a tribo-tester, and the morphology of the worn tribo-surfaces were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results show that the powders used as lubricating additive have an obvious anti-friction and wear resistance effect, and the lager the applied load, the lower the friction coefficient and the wear severity.

In this work the possibility of production of cemented carbide doped with rare-earth element (Y2O3) under condition of high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) was investigated. Initially, the cemented carbide powder (WC10wt.%Co) was submitted to conventional pressing at 800 MPa. The compacts were then sintered at 1400 °C for 40 s under a pressure of 5.5 GPa. The cemented carbide pieces were characterized in terms of relative density, coercive force, mechanical strength, microhardness, and wear resistance. The phase analysis was done by X-ray diffraction. It was established promising results on the production of cemented carbide under high pressure. Moreover, the addition of up to 1.5 wt.% of yttrium oxide in relation the cobalt phase enhanced the technical properties of the cemented carbide.

In this study, 5 wt. % Ti3SnC2/Cu composite was synthesized by hot pressed sintering, and its tribological properties against AISI52100 steel balls were investigated using a ball-on-disk wear tester. The effects of sliding speeds and applied loads on the tribological behavior of Ti3SnC2/Cu were studied. The results showed the wear rate of Ti3SnC2/Cu composite increased with the increase of applied load and decreased with increase of sliding speed. The main tribological mechanisms of Ti3SnC2/Cu were abrasive wear and slightly oxidative wear. The friction coefficient of Ti3SnC2/Cu composite was stable and much lower than that of Cu at the same conditions. The loads were effectively born by the Ti3SnC2particles and the wear resistance of the matrix was obviously improved.

The friction and wear behaviors of Fe-19Cr-15Mn-0.66N steel were investigated under applied loads of 5 N and 15 N at the wear-testing temperatures of 300 °C and 500 °C using a ball-on-disc tribometer. The wear tracks were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) to reveal the variation in morphologies. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to determine the components of oxide layers formed on wear surfaces. The results demonstrated that the oxide layers are favorable for obtaining a low friction coefficient under all conditions. The average friction coefficient decreased with increasing load at 300 °C, while it increased with the increase in applied load at 500 °C. At 300 °C, severe abrasive wear characterized by grooves resulted in a high friction coefficient with 5 N applied, whereas the formation of a denser oxide layer consisting of Cr2O3, FeCr2O4, Fe2O3, etc., and the increased hardness caused by work hardening led to a decrease in friction characterized by mild adhesive wear. At 500 °C, the transformation of Fe2O3 to the relatively softer Fe3O4 and the high production of lubricating Mn2O3 resulted in a minimum average friction coefficient (0.34) when 5 N was applied. However, the softening caused by high temperature weakened the hardening effect, and thus the friction coefficient increased with 15 N applied at 500 °C.
