22MnB5 Boron Steel can be considered as emerged material for high strength and low weight application. This material potentially used in abrasive condition such as cutting tool or brake pad where high friction resistance applies. In this study, the wear characteristics of 22MnB5 was investigated under the frictional tests via micro pin-on-disk. 22MnB5 Boron Steel was prepared the form of round shape within the size of 2.6 mm thickness and 12 mm diameter by using laser cutting. 4 different samples were tested namely blank (sample A), self-hardening heat treatment (sample B), 60 HRC hot stamped (sample C) and 70 HRC hot stamped (sample D). The results show that Coefficient of Friction (COF) increased as the hardness of 22MnB5 decreased. Low COF of 0.2114 recorded for sample D with 70 HRC hardness. The COF increased to 0.24, 0.29 and 0.3 when sample C (60 HRC), sample B (52 HRC) and sample A (45.5 HRC) applied respectively. For pin-on disc test, worn area decreased as the hardness increased. 22MnB5 that prepared with the highest hardness of 70 HRC presented smallest wear area of 700 µm x 2400 µm. It is followed by 800 µm x 2400 µm, 1000 µm x 2400 µm, 1600 µm x 2800 µm, when sample C, B and A were scratched. Observation on the worn surface revealed delamination of 22MnB5 surface in the form of fragmented flaking debris.

This paper presents an experimental investigation to study friction and interface temperature characteristics of chopped strand mat fiberglass (type-R) reinforced polyester (CGRP) sliding against smooth stainless steel. Pin-on-disk (POD) apparatus is used to perform the experimental tests under dry sliding condition at room temperature. Several parameters are considered, namely load (30, 60 & 90N), sliding velocity (2.8, 3.52 & 3.9m/s) and sliding distance (0–2.51km). Three different orientations of chopped strand mat with respect to sliding direction, Parallel (P), Anti-parallel (AP) and Normal orientations (N) are investigated. Continuous measurements of friction forces using strain gauges, and interface temperatures using infrared thermometer are performed. In addition, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is used to study the worn surface to verify the results. Experimental results show that specimen’s orientations and the tested parameters play a major role in controlling friction and interface temperature characteristics of the CGRP/stainless steel. Maximum friction coefficient was taken place in AP orientation at 3.5 m/s and 2.5km, which was about 0.6. Although, AP-orientation had higher friction interface temperature in comparing to P and N-orientations, which was about 48°C at 3.9m/s and 2.5km.

Wear of metals is influenced by many factors such as material, surrounding atmosphere and sliding conditions. Besides these factors, type of the wear test also has a significant effect on wear results. For example, when pin on disk test rig is used, wear of disk is usually more than that of pin [1]. This is because the contact time of each specimen is asymmetric. In this case, the transfer particle at the tip of the pin protects pin against wear. So the wear of dissimilar metals depends on the pin-disk combination. In order to fully characterize the adhesive wear, we have developed a disk on disk type test rig [2]. In this rig, the circumferential surfaces of the two identical disks are in sliding contact thereby resulting in a symmetrical contact. In this paper, the wear characteristics of ten different metals sliding against emery paper as well as against themselves have been presented along with the wear of 43 dissimilar metal combinations.

This article presents the mechanical, physical, and tribological properties of the boron carbide (B4C) reinforced epoxy matrix composites (BEMCs). The BEMC samples were prepared with various B4C concentration of 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, and 5%. B4C particles were treated with a silane coupling agent to ensure efficient adhesion with epoxy. The influence of a range of parameters (particle loading, sliding speed, sliding distance, and normal load) on the wear and friction behavior of BEMCs were evaluated by conducting wear tests under dry sliding conditions on a pin-on-disc wear test set-up. The addition of B4C to the epoxy polymer improved the wear resistance of the composites. Maximum wear resistance and coefficient of friction were observed for the composite with the highest percentage of B4C (5%). The specific wear rate was reduced on increasing load and sliding distance and increased with the sliding velocity. Mechanical properties including compression strength, flexural strength, and impact energy, along with physical properties such as density and hardness, were also evaluated. B4C particles improved the hardness, density, flexural and compression strength, and impact resistance of the composites. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis of the worn-out surfaces and flexural fractured surfaces was carried out to predict the possible wear and fracture mechanisms. Micro-ploughing, abrasion, and adhesion were the wear mechanisms in BEMCs. Under the flexural loads, particulate de-bonding, pull-out, and brittle fracture of the matrix were the governing failure mechanisms.

The friction and wear of the silicon carbide (SiC) and hot pressed silicon nitride (Si3N4) against zirconia (Y–TZP) sliding under dry friction and room temperature conditions were investigated with pin-on-disk tribometer at sliding speed of 0.56 m·s-1 and normal load of 50 N, 80 N and 120 N, respectively. It was found that, the coefficient of friction and wear rate are dependent on the test duration as well as the normal load. Through analyzing and comparing, the wear rates of the two frictional couples both are in the 10-6 mm3 (N·m)-1. Based on the variety regulation of the wear maps, the wear mechanisms of the two couples were analyzed. Between the two couples, the friction and wear characteristics of the SiC/ZrO2 couple are better than the Si3N4/ZrO2 couple’s.

Pin-on-disk technique was used as a tool to study the tribological properties of contacting surfaces of alumina-titanium carbide composite material and diamond slicing blade. Conditions for testing are linear sliding speed between 0.2 and 0.4 m/s under applied load of 10 N and sliding distance up to 5000 m. The physical properties of both specimens which are mass loss, surface roughness and morphology of worn surface are investigated. The effect of linear sliding speed is analyzed in term of friction coefficient, surface roughness, and specific wear rate. It was found that, at initial state of wear, when sliding distant is less than 1000 m, the wear is severe, as seen by high values of specific wear rate and large fluctuation of friction coefficient. Worn surface of AlTiC is rougher than as-received condition. For a longer sliding distant, milder abrasion is found, as seen by the lower specific wear rate, and less fluctuation of friction coefficient, which produces worn AlTiC surface which is smoother than the as-received condition.

Wear behavior of titanium materials such as C.P.Ti, Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-6Al-7Nb, was studied in simulated body fluids by means of the pin-on-disk type wear testing. The mass loss in wear testing increased with increasing the sliding distance. The a+b type titanium alloys, Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-6Al-7Nb, exhibited higher wear resistance than the C.P.Ti. Average size of the wear debris was 4.5 µm and 3.7 µm for C.P.Ti and the a+b type titanium alloys, respectively. The elution of metallic constituents into 1 mass% lactic acid solution was detected after the wear test.
