Friction And Wear Tests

Friction and wear tests of TiB2 sliding against SiC were conducted without lubricant from room temperature to 1200°C in air and in vacuum. The friction coefficient of the couple of TiB2/SiC is affected obviously by the oxidation of TiB2. It increases with the increase of temperature and reaches a maximum at some temperature in air, then decreases remarkably. The friction coefficient of TiB2/SiC in vacuum exhibites almost a constant and keeps smaller value than that in air. Transition of TiB2 onto the sliding surface of SiC was observed, which improved the wear resistance of SiC at high temperatures.

Friction And Wear Tests

Purpose Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is adopted in water-lubricated bearings for its excellent performance. This paper aims to investigate the tribological properties of UHMWPE with a molecular weight of 10.2 million (g mol‐1) under different molding temperatures. Design/methodology/approach The UHMWPE samples were prepared by mold pressing under constant pressure and different molding temperatures (140°C, 160°C, 180°C, 200°C, 220°C). The friction and wear tests in water were conducted at the RTEC tribo-tester. Findings The friction coefficient and wear loss decreased first and rose later with the increasing molding temperature. The minimums of the friction coefficient and wear loss were found at the molding temperatures of 200°C. At low melting temperatures, the UHMWPE molecular chains could not unwrap thoroughly, leading to greater abrasive wear. On the other hand, high melting temperatures will cause the UHMWPE molecular chains to break up and decompose. The optimal molding temperatures for UHMWPE were found to be 200°C. Originality/value Findings are of great significance for the design of water-lubricated UHMWPE bearings.

Friction And Wear Tests

The effects of hydrogen on friction and wear properties of Ti–6Al–4V alloy sliding against GCr15 steel were investigated through dry sliding friction and wear tests in atmosphere at room temperature. Wear mechanism was determined by studying the morphology and chemical element of worn surface using SEM and EDS. Results show that friction coefficient decreases slightly and wear rate increases after hydrogenation. Wear mechanism is discussed.

Friction And Wear Tests

Friction and wear tests of Al2O3 and SiC were conducted from room temperature to 1200°C both in air and in vacuum. Results show that the wear mechanism of Al2O3 is dominated by micro fracture, debris abrasive and delamination at temperatures below 600 °C, while is controlled by plastic deformation and recrystallization among 600~1200 °C, resulting in an obvious decrease of wear loss. The wear rate and surface microstructure of SiC are closely depending on the testing temperature, atmosphere and contact pressure. Oxidation of SiC at elevated temperatures plays important role on the wear rate. Self lubrication of both Al2O3 and SiC at high temperatures was observed, which is mainly depending on the formation of a specific surface layer composed of nano-particles or very thin glassy film.

Friction And Wear Tests

Characteristics of the frictional layer in high-purity Ti3SiC2 and TiC-contained Ti3SiC2, sliding against low carbon steel, were investigated. The friction and wear tests were made using a block-on-disk type friction tester with sliding speed of 20 m/s and several normal pressures from 0.1 MPa to 0.8 MPa. It was found that all friction surfaces, whether high-purity Ti3SiC2 or TiC-contained Ti3SiC2, were covered by a layer consisting of the oxides of Ti, Si and Fe. The layer was sticky, superimposed layer-by-layer, and the compact was increased with the normal pressure increasing. Because its antifriction effect, the friction coefficient decreases from the maximum 0.35 to 0.27 with increase in the normal pressure from 0.2 MPa to 0.8 MPa for the high-purity Ti3SiC2, and decreases from the maximum 0.55 to 0.37 for the same change of the normal pressure for the TiC-contained Ti3SiC2. The contained TiC grains had effects on the stickiness, liquidness, as well as the morphology of the layer, and induced the friction coefficient to increase in the entire level.

In order to verify and select the appropriate materials for cooperation in high-speed foil bearings in the particular tribological pair, a series of friction and wear tests of selected material pairs were carried out. This paper presents a method for determination of the friction coefficient, a basic quantity characterizing two materials cooperating frictionally in an atypical tribological combination of the foil-roller type. Laboratory tests, necessary to determine the friction factor value in the mentioned friction junction and in a low-boiling liquid environment, were carried out on a specially prepared test stand using the T-27 apparatus.

Friction And Wear Tests

Ti-6Al-4V alloy was hydrogenated at 800°C by thermohydrogen treatment technology. Sliding friction and wear tests were carried out in a special tribometer assembled on CA6140 turning lathe to investigate the friction and wear morphology between hydrogenated titanium alloys and WC-Co cemented carbides. The morphological analyses of the worn surface were made by scanning electron microscope. It was found that the friction coefficient and the friction area temperature of the pair both firstly decreased and then increased with the increase of hydrogen content, and the friction coefficient decreased and the friction area temperature increased with increasing sliding speed. The main wear morphologies of the unhydrogenated alloys were serious plastic deformation, ploughing, adhesion tearing pit and fatigue microcrack, but the main wear morphologies of the hydrogenated alloys were boundary of plastic extension, slight scratch and slight adhesion tearing. Besides, the main wear morphology of the tool corresponding to unhydrogenated alloys was massive spalling, but the main wear morphology of the tool corresponding to the titanium alloy with 0.29% hydrogen content was punctate spalling.

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.
