The paper studied the friction and wear performances of n-Na2B4O7/ion nitrocarburized duplex layer at different frequences. It is found that at frequence 10 Hz, 20 Hz, 30 Hz, respectively, the friction factor and volume loss of the duplex layer is 64%, 60%, 50% and 97%, 91%, 95% less than that of the intermediate frequency quenched surface, respectively, which indicates that the n-Na2B4O7/ion nitrocarburized duplex layer has more excellent friction reduction and wear resistance performances than the intermediate frequency quenched surface under CD15W-40 oil lubricating at different frequences. This because that the chemical reaction films including oxide, BN and so on formed on the friction surface play the solid lubrication function, and the n-Na2B4O7 particles on the friction surface play the "Micron nanobearing" function.

The paper studied the tribological performances of n-Na2B4O7/ion nitrocarburized duplex layer at different temperatures. It is found that the n-Na2B4O7/ion nitrocarburized duplex layer has more excellent friction reduction and wear resistance performances than the intermediate frequency quenched surface under CD15W-40 oil lubricating at different temperatures, especially at the higher temperature 100°C, the friction factor and volume loss of the duplex layer is 63% and 96% less than that of the intermediate frequency quenched surface respectively, which indicates that n-Na2B4O7/ion nitrocarburized duplex layer can play more excellent friction reduction, wear resistance and scuffing resistance performances at the relative higher temperature. This because that the chemical reaction films including oxide, BN and so on formed on the friction surface play the solid lubrication function, and the n-Na2B4O7 particles on the friction surface play the "Micron nanobearing" function.

The paper studied the effect of n-Na2B4O7additives of different content on tribological performances of the ion nitrocarburized layer. It is found that 7% n-Na2B4O7additive can improve greatly the friction reduction and wear resistance of the ion nitrocarburized layer under different conditions. This because that synergetic effect of friction reduction and wear resistance is produced between n-Na2B4O7additive and ion nitrocarburized layer under higher temperature, frequence and load, and the chemical reaction films including oxide, nitride, BN, and sulphide and so on formed on the friction surface play the solid lubrication function, and the n-Na2B4O7particles on the friction surface play the "Micron nanobearing" function, translating the sliding friction into the rolling friction, which can make the ion nitrocarburized layer possess the excellent tribological performances.

The paper studied the effect of n-LaB4O7additives of different contents on tribological behaviors of the ion nitrocarburized layer at higher temperature. It is found that 7% n-LaB4O7additives can improve obviously the tribological performances of the ion nitrocarburized layer. This because that synergetic effect of friction reduction and wear resistance is produced between the n-LaB4O7additives and ion nitrocarburized layer under higher temperature, load and frequence, and the solid lubrication films including oxide, nitride and sulphate and so on are formed on the friction surface to separate the contact between the metal sufaces, and furthermore the n-LaB4O7particles on the friction surface play the "Micron nanobearing" function, which make the ion nitrocarburized layer have the more excellent tribological performances.

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.

Purpose In an internal combustion engine, piston ring-cylinder liner tribo pair is one among the most critical rubbing pairs. Most of the energy produced by an internal combustion engine is dissipated as frictional losses of which major portion is contributed by the piston ring-cylinder liner tribo pair. Hence, proper design of tribological parameters of piston ring-cylinder liner pair is essential and can effectively reduce the friction and wear, thereby improving the tribological performance of the engine. This paper aims to use surface texturing, an effective and feasible method, to improve the tribological performance of piston ring-cylinder liner tribo pair. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, influence of positive texturing (protruding) on friction reduction and wear resistance of piston ring surfaces was studied. The square-shaped positive textures were fabricated on piston ring surface by chemical etching method, and the experiments were conducted with textured piston ring surfaces against un-textured cylinder liner surface on pin-on-disc apparatus by continuous supply of lubricant at the inlet of contact zone. The parameters varied in this study are area density and normal load at a constant sliding speed. A comparison was made between the tribological properties of textured and un-textured piston ring surfaces. Findings From the experimental results, the tribological performance of the textured piston ring-cylinder liner tribo pair was significantly improved over a un-textured tribo pair. A maximum friction reduction of 67.6 per cent and wear resistance of 81.6 per cent were observed with textured ring surfaces as compared to un-textured ring surfaces. Originality/value This experimental study is helpful for better understanding of the potency of positive texturing on friction reduction and wear resistance of piston ring-cylinder liner tribo pair under lubricated sliding conditions.

The composition of FeS solid lubrication duplex layer on 45 steel surface was studied by using SEM, EDS, AES and XPS. The results show that the sulphurized surface layer of FeS solid lubrication duplex is composed of the sulphide aggradation layer deposited on the nitrocarburized sub-surface layer and the sulphide diffusion layer formed by some S element infiltrating the nitrocarburized surface. The sulphide aggradation layer is mainly composed of FeS and FeS2, the key composition of the sulphide diffusion layer is FeS, and Fe(2/3/4)N is the key composition of the nitrocarburized sub-surface layer. The result of friction reduction and wear resistance test combined with the composition of FeS solid lubrication duplex layer explains that the friction coefficient and wear volume of the duplex layer are lower than those of the plain surface, which attribute to the relatively softer sulphurized surface layer provided self-lubricating property while the harder nitrocarburized sub-surface layer provided sufficient load bearing capacity in view of resistance to plastic deformation, so that spallation failure of the sulphurized surface layer can be effectively avoided, and they exert excellent friction reduction and wear resistance functions in different moments during rubbing process respectively.

FeS solid lubrication duplex layer was prepared on the surface of 45 steel by ion nitrocarburizing-ion sulphurizing process. The sulphide grains in micron and nano scale and holes distributing equably on the duplex layer. The n-Al2O3 particles in liquid paraffin oil were set into the holes in micron and nano scale of the duplex layer by using vacuum dipping process to prepare the n-Al2O3/FeS solid lubrication duplex layer. Friction and wear performances of the n-Al2O3/FeS solid lubrication duplex layer were investigated to be excellent under different loads and temperatures. The causes are as follows: the solid lubrication function of FeS solid lubrication duplex layer, the “micron nano bearing” function of the nanoparticles embedded in the micron nano pores of FeS solid lubrication duplex layer, and oil lubrication are integrated by nanoparticles/FeS solid lubrication duplex layer and exert synergic lubrication function under high temperature and over loading condition. so the coefficients of friction and volume loss of the n-Al2O3/FeS solid lubrication duplex layer under load 60N and temperature 150°C are 10% and 31.3% lower than those of the FeS solid lubrication duplex layer lubricated by the n-Al2O3 additive, respectively.

Abstract The tribology performance of two carbon fibre-reinforced polyether-ether-ketones (450FC30 and WG101) sliding against stainless steel 3Cr13 and 3Cr13 coated with aluminium oxide (Al2O3), tungsten carbide (WC) and diamond-like carbon (DLC) under dry friction and water lubrication were studied to reduce the coefficient of friction and improve the wear resistance of water-lubricated bearings. The friction and wear mechanism of different tribopairs were determined via pin-on-disc sliding tests. Experimental results showed that the WG101/Al2O3 tribopair exhibited excellent wear resistance under dry friction and water lubrication. Carbon fibres were exposed on the friction surface of WG101 when WG101 slid against Al2O3. These carbon fibres bore most of the load to reduce wear. This work provides a practical basis for selecting the optimal tribopair for water-lubricated bearings.
