The wear properties of ADZ (alumina dispersed in Y-TZP) and MDZ (mullite dispersed in Y-TZP) were investigated by using a ring-on-block tribometer. The results showed that for Y-TZP ceramic, the addition of alumina phase (with 10-20% in mass fraction) leads to an improved wear resistance. With the increase of the normal load, the wear rates of ADZ ceramics increase. Under low and medium normal load (100N and 300N), the wear resistance is controlled by the hardness of ceramics, and under high normal load (500N) the fracture toughness is obviously contributed to the wear resistance of the ceramics. For MDZ ceramic, the wear resistance of 15MDZ (15wt% mullite dispersed in Y-TZP) is better than that of 20 MDZ (20wt% mullite) under the normal load from 100 N to 500 N. The mechanical properties of 15MDZ are worse than that of Y-TZP ceramic, but the wear resistance is enhanced due to the action of “needle roller bearing” of the fractured rod-like mullite particles.

Antifriction Alloys

Potential relations of tribological characteristics of aluminum antifriction alloys with their compositions and mechanical properties were investigated. In this regard, the properties of eight aluminum alloys containing tin from 5.4% to 11% doped with lead, copper, silicon, zinc, magnesium, and titanium were studied. Mechanical properties such as hardness, strength, relative extension, and impact strength were analyzed. Within the tribological tests seizure load and wear of material were evaluated and secondary structures were studied afterwards. The absence of a definitive correlation between tribological behavior and mechanical properties was shown. It was determined that doping tin over 6% is excessive. The seizure load of the alloys increases with the magnesium content. Secondary structures of the alloys with higher wear rates contain one order less magnesium and tin.

In order to improve the friction and wear properties of Cu10Al–MoS2 coating, the addition of CeO2 is one of the present research hot spots. In this work, Cu10Al–MoS2 coatings with different CeO2 mass fractions were successfully fabricated on Q235 steel using a laser cladding. The microstructure and phase compositions of obtained coatings were analyzed using an ultra-depth of field microscope and X-ray diffraction, respectively. The friction-wear test was carried out under oil lubrication using a ball-on-disk wear tester, and the effects of CeO2 mass fraction on the microstructure, hardness, and friction-wear properties were studied, and the wear mechanism was also discussed. The results show that the laser cladded Cu10Al–MoS2 coatings with the different CeO2 mass fractions were mainly composed of Cu9Al4, Cu, AlFe3, Ni, MoS2, and CeO2 phases. The Vickers-hardness (HV) of Cu10Al–8MoS2–3CeO2, Cu10Al–8MoS2–6CeO2, and Cu10Al–8MoS2–9CeO2 coatings was 418, 445, and 457 HV0.3, respectively, which indicates an increase in hardness with the increase of CeO2 mass fraction. The average coefficients of friction (COF) and wear rates decrease with the increase of CeO2 mass fraction, presenting the outstanding friction reduction and wear resistance performances. The wear mechanism of Cu10Al–MoS2 coatings is changed from abrasive wear with slight fatigue wear to abrasive wear with the increase of CeO2 mass fraction.

Structure Observation

In order to investigate systematically the effect of Bi addition on the corrosion resistance of zirconium alloys, different zirconium-based alloys, including Zr-4 (Zr-1.5Sn-0.2Fe-0.1Cr), S5 (Zr-0.8Sn-0.35Nb-0.4Fe-0.1Cr), T5 (Zr-0.7Sn-1.0Nb-0.3Fe-0.1Cr) and Zr-1Nb, were adopted to prepare the zirconium alloys containing Bi of 0∼0.5% in mass fraction. These alloys were denoted as Zr-4+xBi, S5+xBi, T5+xBi and Zr-1Nb+xBi, respectively. The corrosion behavior of these specimens was investigated by autoclave testing in lithiated water with 0.01 M LiOH or deionized water at 360°C/18.6 MPa and in superheated steam at 400 °C/10.3 MPa. The micro structure of the alloys was examined by TEM and the second phase particles (SPPs) were analyzed by EDS. Micro structure observation shows that the addition of Bi promotes the precipitation of Sn as second phase particles (SPPs) because Sn is in solid solution in α-Zr matrix in Zr-4, S5 and T5 alloys. The concentration of Bi dissolved in α-Zr matrix increase with the increase of Nb in the alloys, and the excess Bi precipitates as Bi-containing SPPs. The corrosion results show that the effect of Bi addition on the corrosion behavior of different zirconium-based alloys is very complicated, depending on their compositions and corrosion conditions. In the case of higher Bi concentration in α-Zr, the zirconium alloys exhibit better corrosion resistance. However, in the case of precipitation of Bi-containing SPPs, the corrosion resistance gets worse. This indicates that the solid solution of Bi in α-Zr matrix can improve the corrosion resistance, while the precipitation of the Bi-containing SPPs is harmful to the corrosion resistance.

Uhmwpe Composites

This work reports on the simulated neutron and self-emitted gamma attenuation of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) composites containing varying Sm2O3 contents in the range 0–50 wt.%, using a simulation code, namely MCNP-PHITS. The neutron energy investigated was 0.025 eV (thermal neutrons), and the gamma energies were 0.334, 0.712, and 0.737 MeV. The results indicated that the abilities to attenuate thermal neutrons and gamma rays were noticeably enhanced with the addition of Sm2O3, as seen by the increases in µm and µ, and the decrease in HVL. By comparing the simulated neutron-shielding results from this work with those from a commercial 5%-borated PE, the recommended Sm2O3 content that attenuated thermal neutrons with equal efficiency to the commercial product was 11–13 wt.%. Furthermore, to practically improve surface compatibility between Sm2O3 and the UHMWPE matrix and, subsequently, the overall wear/mechanical properties of the composites, a silane coupling agent (KBE903) was used to treat the surfaces of Sm2O3 particles prior to the preparation of the Sm2O3/UHMWPE composites. The experimental results showed that the treatment of Sm2O3 particles with 5–10 pph KBE903 led to greater enhancements in the wear resistance and mechanical properties of the 25 wt.% Sm2O3/UHMWPE composites, evidenced by lower specific wear rates and lower coefficients of friction, as well as higher tensile strength, elongation at break, and surface hardness, compared to those without surface treatment and those treated with 20 pph KBE903. In conclusion, the overall results suggested that the addition of Sm2O3 in the UHMWPE composites enhanced abilities to attenuate not only thermal neutrons but also gamma rays emitted after the neutron absorption by Sm, while the silane surface treatment of Sm2O3, using KBE903, considerably improved the processability, wear resistance, and strength of the composites.

The pipeline steel as an application in pipeline construction must have good comprehensive mechanical properties due to the harsh environment of the pipeline engineering. So this experiment takes the X80 pipeline steel as the research object, the thermal stability second phase particles which would not be dissolved or aggregated at high temperature will be expected by means of adding nanomagnesium oxide into the steel with the method of carrier dispersion addition. The effect of nanometer magnesium oxide addition on the cast microstructure of X80 pipeline steel was analysed. The results show that the cast microstructure is consist of the ferrite and a small amount bainite. And the bainite is distributed at the boundary of the ferrite grains. When adding 0.02 wt% nanometer magnesium oxides, the number of bainite increases significantly in the cast microstructure, which is mostly distributed at the boundary of the ferrite grains.

An aluminum silicon-based alloy Al-7wt%Si-2wt%Fe, was processed by severe plastic deformation technique in high-pressure torsion (HPT) at room temperature under a pressure of 6.0 GPa and rotational speed of 1.0 rpm with various numbers of turns up to five. Microstructure evolution, especially iron-containing intermetallic phases, was observed using an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The microstructure results demonstrate that the large strains introduced by HPT at ambient temperature cause fragmentation of iron-intermetallic particles. The degree of fragmentation increases with increasing numbers of turns so that the intermetallic particles decreased in size with increasing imposed strain. In addition, the wear properties were evaluated using ball-on-disc dry sliding testing for both the as-cast material and the alloy processed by HPT using micro-tribometer UMT-2 (CETR Co., USA) following the ASTM G99-05 (2010) standard. The wear tests were conducted on the surface of the samples at 1.5 mm from the disc center under a normal load of 5 N with a rotational speed of 60 rpm and sliding time of 10 min. The friction coefficient and wear volume loss were examined to evaluate the effect of HPT on wear resistance. The results show that the samples processed by HPT have lower average values for the COF and wear volume loss than that of unprocessed samples.

The Relationship

Magnesium alloys attract attention as degradable implant materials due to their adjustable corrosion properties and biocompatibility. In the last few decades, especially wrought magnesium alloys with enhanced mechanical properties have been developed, with the main aim of increasing ductility and formability. Alloying and processing studies allowed demonstrating the relationship between the processing and the microstructure development for many new magnesium alloys. Based on this experience, magnesium alloy compositions need adjustment to elements improving mechanical properties while being suitable for biomaterial applications. In this work, magnesium alloys from two Mg-Zn series with Ce (ZE) or Ca (ZX) as additional elements and a series of alloys with Ag and Ca (QX) as alloying elements are suggested. The microstructure development was studied after the extrusion of round bars with varied processing parameters and was related to the mechanical properties and the degradation behavior of the alloys. Grain refinement and texture weakening mechanisms could be improved based on the alloy composition for enhancing the mechanical properties. Degradation rates largely depended on the nature of second phase particles rather than on the grain size, but remained suitable for biological applications. Furthermore, all alloy compositions exhibited promising cytocompatibility.

In this study, the multi-pass friction stir processing (MP-FSP) technique was performed on ADC6 aluminum alloy + 5 wt% fly ash composite (A5FC) castings to increase their surface area. The dry sliding wear behaviors of the ADC6 alloy, A5FCs, and MP-FSPed A5FCs were evaluated. Dry sliding wear tests were performed using a ring-on-washer machine at a constant rotation speed of 100 rpm for 60 min, and the normal load was 10, 20, 30, and 40 N. The results showed that the MP-FSPed A5FCs had the lowest wear rates in the load range from 10 to 40 N, and adhesive wear was the major wear mechanism in these tests. The increased wear resistance was mainly due to grain refinement and elimination of casting defects after subjecting the ash composite to MP-FSP. The microstructure of the MP-FSPed A5FCs reveals that the sizes of the added raw fly ash particles decreased from micro-to nanoscale levels, and the nanoscale fly ash was uniformly dispersed in the aluminum matrix.
