The nitrided layer on the surface of LZ50 (0.50% C) carbon steel was prepared by ion nitriding technique and its characterizations were detected by using Vickers hardness tester, profilometer, scanning electric microscope (SEM), optical microscope (OM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Rotational fretting is one of basic running modes in contact configuration of ball-on-flat, to which was paid little attention. The rotational fretting wear behaviors of the nitrided layer and its substrate steel were comparatively studied in dry condition under varied angular displacement amplitudes (θ) in range of 0.125º-1º, imposed normal load (Fn) of 20 N and a constant rotational speed of 0.2º/s. The experimental results showed that the nitrided layer presented rough and porous surface and high hardness was mainly consist of ε-Fe2-3N and γ׳-Fe4N phases. Compared with the substrate steel, the nitrided layer had a significant effect on reducing the friction coefficient and improving the fretting wear resistance, though the nitrided layer almost didn’t change the fretting running regimes of the substrate steel. In the partial slip regime, lower friction coefficients and slight damage appeared for the nitrided layer due to the coordination of elastic deformation of contact zones. In the slip regime, the friction coefficient of the nitrided layer was lower than that of the substrate in the initial stage as a result of the preventing plastic deformation by its high hardness surface. The rotational fretting wear mechanism of the nitrided layer in the slip regime was mainly identified as abrasive wear, oxidative wear and delamination. As a result, the nitrided layer presented a better capability for alleviating rotational fretting wear.

Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and its composites are recognized as alternative bearing materials for use in arthroplasty because of their excellent mechanical properties. In this paper, torsional friction tests of PEEK against the CoCrMo alloy, simulating the contact mode between the prosthesis tibia and femur, were carried out under a 25% calf serum solution in a Leeds Prosim knee simulator. The torsional friction behavior of PEEK against the CoCrMo alloy was investigated under various normal loads (1000 N, 1600 N and 2200 N), torsional angular displacement amplitudes (±1 deg, ±3 deg, and ±5 deg), and the number of cycles (7500, 15,000, and 30,000). The torsional friction characteristics and damage mechanism are discussed. The results show that PEEK exhibited low friction coefficient under the different conditions. With increases in the torsional angle and normal load, three types of torque/angular displacement amplitude (T–θ) curves (i.e., linear, parallelogram, and elliptical loops) were observed and analyzed during the process of torsional friction. With the increase of the torsional angle, the coefficient of friction decreases. And the contact states change from the partial slip regime to the slip regime. The greater the torsional angle displacement, the more severe the damage to the PEEK surface. With an increase in the normal load, the wear scars increased. The wear depth is deepened and the width is widened, and the wear gradually becomes serious with an increase in the load. The small load is more likely to cause damage to the central area of PEEK, and the larger load causes more serious damage to the marginal region. The central and marginal regions of the PEEK sample have different wear characteristics. The worn surfaces of the central regions were characterized by convex ridges resulting from plastic deformation, while curved ploughs and fatigue peeling appeared in the marginal region. The wear mechanism of PEEK in the central region is plastic deformation, while fatigue wear and abrasive wear mainly appeared in the marginal region.

Purpose This paper aims to study the influence of load and environment medium on the fretting behavior of SAF 2507 SDSS. Design/methodology/approach In this study, the effect of load on the fretting behavior of SAF 2507 SDSS in air and sea water were studied. The fretting wear tests under different loads were conducted with a ball-on-flat contact configuration. The friction coefficient, wear volume, surface morphology and oxidation component were determined. Findings With the increase of applied load, the friction coefficient decreases both in air and sea water. The fretting mechanism is gradually transformed from partial slip regime to slip regime in air while the fretting counterparts are all in the state of gross slip in sea water. In sea water, the friction coefficient is lower while the wear loss is higher compared with that in air. Research limitations/implications This research suggests that the fretting behavior of SAF 2507 SDSS is related to load and environment medium. Practical implications The results may help us to choose the appropriate load under different environments. Originality/value The main originality of the research is to reveal the fretting behavior of SAF 2507 SDSS under different loads in air and sea water, which would help us to realize fretting behavior of SAF 2507 SDSS is controlled by the combination of applied load and lubricating environment.

In this work, an in-situ XPS analysis test combined self-designed high precision fretting wear tester was carried out to study the fretting wear behavior and the resulting tribo-oxidation of thermal-oxidation film on Ti6Al4V titanium alloy under the varied working atmosphere. The fretting-induced tribo-oxidation under the air and vacuum ([Formula: see text] Pa) environment was analyzed and its response on the resulting fretting wear resistance and damage mechanism was discussed. Results show that the working environment plays a significant role in the formation of tribo-oxidation and then determining the fretting wear resistance. Thermal-oxidation film in the vacuum atmosphere shows a better fretting wear resistance than that in the air atmosphere for all fretting regimes, except for partial slip regime (PSR) where there is an equivalent fretting wear resistance. Compared with the substrate Ti6Al4V titanium alloy, the thermal-oxidation film in the vacuum atmosphere performs a good protection for titanium alloy, especially for slip regime (SR), but not applied for air atmosphere.

Tribological behavior of the Inconel X-750 alloy disk subjected to fretting against the GCr15 steel ball was investigated in an ambient laboratory air with relative humidity of 55–65%. A high-frequency oscillating Optimol SRV 4 tribometer was employed to execute dry fretting tests in the partial and gross slip regimes under constant 100 N normal load. Tests were carried out for 10, 30, and 90 minutes, and the friction forces vs. displacement amplitudes were monitored during the test duration. Posttest examinations were conducted utilizing advanced tools such as 3D optical surface profiler, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The main objective was to obtain wear scar evolutions, frictional properties, and degradation mechanisms under the different running conditions over time. It was found that fretting wear behaviors of friction pairs were strongly influenced by fretting regimes. Degradation evolutions were greatly influenced by fretting time during partial slip regimes, i.e., evolving from asperity deformation and slight damage to the fatigue crack and material transfer. However, the combination of adhesive, abrasive, delamination, and wear oxidation mechanisms was repeated during the entire gross slip fretting process.

Main Effects

Fretting-wear and fretting-fatigue loadings can both result in wear (material loss) and in crack nucleation and propagation (fatigue process). This paper deals with cracking induced by small amplitude displacements in the case of aeronautic aluminium alloys. The two sets of fretting maps are introduced: running condition fretting map is composed of partial slip (sticking), mixed fretting and gross sliding regime; material response fretting map is associated with two macro-degradation modes. Crack nucleation and propagation are analysed for every fretting regime. The mixed fretting regime appeared most detrimental with regards to fatigue cracking. Slip amplitude and normal load main effects discussed for fretting wear can be used to justify the fatigue limit decrease often obtained for fretting fatigue experiments.

Three Samples

In order to analyze the effect of proceeding on the mechanical and tribological properties of DLC films. Three DLC films samples on single silicon wafers were prepared by CVD method. The changed bias voltages were 300V, 350V, 450V separately. The structure and topography of prepared films were studied by Raman spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM), respectively. The hardness and elastic modulus together with friction coefficient of DLC films were measured by Tribolab system. According to the Raman spectra, the G and D peak shift to left with the increasing of bias voltage. Nano indent showed that the hardness (H) of the DLC films decreases from 19.63GPa to 18.12GPa with the increasing of bias voltages, and the value of elastic modulus (E) is also behaving the same trend as H from 157.95GPa to 146.95GPa. Friction coefficients of the three samples were measured by nano-scratch method under the constant normal load of 1000uN and the slide velocity of 3 um/sec, the corresponding friction coefficient is 0.0804 for DLC300, 0.0508for DLC350 and 0.0594 for DLC450 separately, which indicates that high hardness materials may not necessarily the perfect frictional material, but compound properties of hardness and elastic modulus

Slip Transition

Fretting is now fully identified as a small amplitude oscillatory motion which induces a harmonic tangential force between two surfaces in contact. It is related to three main loadings, i.e. fretting-wear, fretting-fatigue and fretting corrosion. Fretting regimes were first mapped by Vingsbo. In a similar way, three fretting regimes will be considered: stick regime, slip regime and mixed regime. The mixed regime was made up of initial gross slip followed by partial slip condition after a few hundred cycles. Obviously the partial slip transition develops the highest stress levels which can induce fatigue crack nucleation depending on the fatigue properties of the two contacting first bodies. Therefore prediction of the frontier between partial slip and gross slip is required.

A general three-dimensional contact, between elastically similar half-spaces, is considered. With a fixed normal load, we consider a pure relative tangential translation between the two bodies. We show that, for the case of negligible Poisson’s ratio, an exact solution is given by a single component of shearing traction, in the direction of loading. It is well known that, for full sliding conditions, the tangential force must be applied through the center of the pressure distribution. Instead, for a full stick case the tangential force must be applied through the center of the pressure distribution under a rigid flat indenter whose planform is the contact area of the problem under consideration. Finally, for finite friction a partial slip regime has to be introduced. It is shown that this problem corresponds to a difference between the actual normal contact problem, and a corrective problem corresponding to a lower load, but with same rotation of the actual normal indentation. Therefore for a pure translation to occur in the partial slip regime, the point of application of the tangential load must follow the center of the “difference” pressure. The latter also provides a complete solution of the partial slip problem. In particular, the general solution in quadrature is given for the axisymmetric case, where it is also possible to take into account of the effect of Poisson’s ratio, as shown in the Appendix.
