Copper–graphite composite is a tribological composite that can be used in sliding electrical contact applications requiring low friction and wear in addition to high electrical conductivity. The graphite powder (5 wt%) was mixed with the copper powder, and then composite was fabricated through powder metallurgy (P/M) route. P/M product generally requires secondary operations such as rolling, extrusion, etc. to improve their mechanical properties. Post-heat-treatment technique is also applicable to improve the properties of P/M components. Microwave-post-heat-treatment research studies are gaining momentum nowadays due to the improved quality of products with reduced time, energy, and associated cost. Microwave post-heat treatment of copper–graphite composites for different heat treating duration was carried out in a hybrid microwave heating setup. Microstructural studies were carried out using SEM with EDAX. Microwave-heat-treated samples exhibited reduced porosity, improved density, and hardness. In order to understand the friction and wear properties of microwave-heat-treated copper–graphite composites, pin-on-disk wear experiments were conducted. For comparison, untreated copper–graphite composites were also subjected to similar studies. Microwave-heat-treated samples exhibited reduced coefficient of friction and specific wear rate when compared to the untreated ones. The wear mechanism of untreated composites was observed to be plastic deformation characterized by large wear fragments, whereas the mechanism of heat-treated composite was delamination observed through peel off tribolayer. 相似文献

Bronze-uncoated and nickel-coated graphite composites were fabricated by powder metallurgy route. The tribological behaviors of composites sliding against AISI52100 steel ball under dry sliding condition were studied using a ball-on-disk tribometer. The nickel-coated graphite composites showed much better tribological properties in comparison with bronze and uncoated graphite composite. The friction coefficient of nickel-coated graphite composites decreased with increasing nickel-coated graphite content. However, the specific wear rate increased with the increase in nickel-coated graphite. The composite containing 15?wt% nickel-coated graphite showed the best self-lubricating properties because the compacted and stable mechanical mixed layer was formed on the worn surfaces. The wear mechanism of bronze 663 is adhesive wear and abrasive wear. The uncoated nickel-coated graphite composite shows the adhesive wear and delamination characteristics. However, the wear mechanism of nickel-coated composites is mildly abrasive wear. 相似文献

Fe–Mo-based self-lubricating composites were prepared by a powder metallurgical hot-pressing method. The tribological properties
of Fe–Mo-based composites with varied CaF2 contents at high temperature were evaluated, and the effect of glaze films on the friction and wear characteristics of composites
were analyzed. The results show that the introduction of CaF2 into Fe–Mo alloys improved the mechanical properties, and the best tribological properties of Fe–Mo–CaF2 composites were achieved at the CaF2 content of 8 wt% at both room temperature and 600 °C. The worn surface of Fe–Mo–CaF2 composite at 600 °C is characterized to plastic deformation and slight scuffing, and the improved tribological properties
are attributed to the formation of lubricious glaze film that composed of high-temperature lubricants CaMoO4 and CaF2 on the worn surface of the composites. 相似文献

Tribological performance of surface coatings with embedded PTFE reservoirs in rolling/sliding contact is reported. Using two
different coating materials and two shapes and patterns of PTFE reservoirs test samples in the form of discs were prepared
and tested in a four-ball contact configuration under loads corresponding to nominal contact pressure of 0.5 and 1.0 GPa.
It was found that one coating, namely aluminium–bronze with embedded PTFE reservoirs is suitable for applications where rolling
is also associated with a degree of sliding and there is no external lubrication. 相似文献

The tribological performance of halogen-free ionic liquids at steel–steel and diamond-like carbon (DLC)–DLC contacts was investigated. Hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) and tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) were used as test specimens. Friction tests were carried out on steel–steel, a-C:H–a-C:H, and ta-C–ta-C contacts by using a reciprocating cylinder-on-disk tribotester lubricated with two different types of halogen-free ionic liquids: 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide ([BMIM][DCN]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tricyanomethanide ([BMIM][TCC]). From the results of friction tests, the ta-C–ta-C tribopair lubricated with [BMIM][DCN] or [BMIM][TCC] exhibited an ultralow friction coefficient of 0.018–0.03. On the other hand, ultralow friction was not observed at the steel–steel and a-C:H–a-C:H contacts. Measurements obtained with a laser scanning microscope and an atomic force microscope (AFM) showed that a chemical reaction film, derived from the ionic liquid lubricant used, was formed on the steel surfaces. However, this chemical reaction film was not observed on either of the DLC surfaces. The AFM results showed that there were high-viscosity products on the ta-C surfaces, that the wear tracks on the ta-C surfaces exhibited low frictional properties, and that the ta-C surfaces were extremely smooth after the friction tests. Based on these results, it was concluded that an ionic liquid–derived adsorbed film formed on the ta-C surface and resulted in the ultralow friction when lubricated with a halogen-free ionic liquid. 相似文献

This article introduces a new type of nanoparticle additive for tribological purposes. A nanolubricant was synthesized and studied that consists of metallic silver nanoparticles suspended in polyethylene glycol (PEG). Silver nanoparticles were prepared directly in liquid PEG by introducing aqueous silver nitrate and subsequent reduction by PEG. The nanolubricant exhibits excellent stability due to poly(vinyl pyrollidone) used as the coating agent. Thorough tribological analysis was performed on the nanolubricant, including rheology, friction, wear, and Stribeck curve analysis. Results show that the nanoparticle additives are capable of reducing both friction and wear at low concentrations. Stribeck curve analysis also revealed that the particles are effective in reducing friction in both the boundary and mixed lubrication regimes. The possible friction and wear reduction mechanism of silver nanoparticles is also discussed in the current work. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThough the premature failures of wind turbine gearboxes are often attributed to bearing fatigue from overloading, there is compelling evidence that wear from underloading is a significant contributor. Here we attempt to gain insight into the relative contributions of over- and underloading by assessing planet bearing reaction forces from the Gearbox Reliability Collaborative (GRC) standard gearbox within a typical utility-scale wind turbine under realistic conditions. The results demonstrate that non-torque load sharing by the planetary stage increases and decreases planet bearing reaction forces at different locations within each rotor cycle regardless of wind speed. Planet bearing reaction forces exceeded the fatigue limit at wind speeds above 12 m/s and fell below the minimum load rating at wind speeds below 7 m/s. Based on analyses of published wind spectra from 10 U.S. sites, the expected fatigue life of the planet bearings ranged from 42 to 529 years even after accounting for non-torque load sharing. At the same 10 sites, planet bearings were underloaded (below 2% of the dynamic load rating) once per rotor cycle 40–70% of the time. Underloaded bearings are susceptible to surface damage when suddenly exposed to common transient events, such as yaw, wind gusts, braking, and grid faults. The resulting surface damage can initiate premature failure via wear (e.g., micropitting) or by reducing bearing fatigue life. The results suggest that carrier bearing clearance, non-torque load sharing, and planet bearing underloading are significant contributors to the premature failures of wind turbine planet bearings. 相似文献

In order to improve the tribological properties of titanium-based implants, sodium hydroxide (NaOH), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) solutions, sol–gel hydroxyapatite (HA) film, thermal treatment and combined methods of NaOH solution/HA film, H2O2 solution/HA film are used to modify the surfaces of Ti–6Al–4V (coded TC4). The chemical states of some typical elements in the modified surfaces were detected by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The tribological properties of modified surfaces sliding against an AISI52100 steel ball were evaluated on a reciprocating friction and wear tester. As the results, complex surfaces with varied components are obtained. All the methods are effective in improving the wear resistance of Ti–6Al–4V in different degrees. Among all, the surface modified by the combined method of NaOH solution/HA film gives the best tribological performances. The friction coefficient is also greatly reduced by the modification of NaOH solution. The order of the wear resistance under 3 N is as following: Ti–NaOH–HA>Ti–NaOH>Ti–HA>Ti–H2O2–HA>Ti–H2O2 >Ti–500; under 1 N is Ti–HA, Ti–NaOH–HA>Ti–NaOH. For Ti–H2O2, a very low friction coefficient and long wear life over 2000 passes is obtained under 1 N. SEM observation of the morphologies of worn surfaces indicates that the wear of TC4 is characteristic of abrasive wear. Differently, abrasion, plastic deformation and micro–crack dominate the wear of Ti–HA; slight abrasive wear dominate the wear mechanism of Ti–NaOH and microfracture and abrasive wear for Ti–NaOH–HA and Ti–H2O2–HA, while the sample modified by thermal treatment is characterized by sever fracture. The superior friction reduction and wear resistance of HA films are greatly attributed to the slight plastic deformation of the film. NaOH solution is superior in improving the wear resistance and decreasing the friction coefficient under relative higher load (3 N) and H2O2 is helpful to reduce friction and wear under relatively lower load (1 N). Combined method of Ti–NaOH–HA is suggested to improve the wear resistance of Ti–6Al–4V for medial applications under fretting situations. 相似文献

This article deals with the effect of extrusion on the microstructures and tribological properties of powder metallurgy–fabricated copper–tin composites containing MoS2 by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and tribotesting. The extrusion decreases the number of pores and increases the density and hardness and thus improves the tribological properties of the composites. Results demonstrated that abrasion is the dominant wear mechanism in all extruded composites, whereas a combination of adhesion and delamination appears to be the governing mechanism for prepared composites. The developed hot-extruded composites exhibited lower coefficient of friction and wear rates compared to prepared composites. Design Expert software was used to develop contour map. 相似文献

A new nanowire-like material with the chemical formula Mo6S4.5I4.5 was studied as additive in a synthetic base oil, a polyalphaolefin (PAO). This material presents interesting friction reducing properties, with friction coefficients reaching a value of 0.04 in boundary lubrication. Transmission and scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to characterise nanowires before and after friction. The combination of these techniques gave evidence of MoS2 formation in the contact area during friction tests. This structural evolution of nanowires explains their good friction reducing properties. 相似文献

Surface groove width is of great significance to the performance of the cylinder liner–piston ring (CLPR) with the different surface textures in marine diesel. However, little is understood about the specific application (e.g., the geometric parameters of surface textures and operating conditions) of surface texture in actual marine diesel engines. To address this issue, different surface groove textures including grooves structures with 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-mm widths were designed based on previous results related to marine diesel engine applications. A series of experimental tests was conducted in a reciprocation tester, and data on the friction characteristics were obtained under different operating conditions. Comparative studies on the friction coefficients, worn surface features, and oil film characteristics were performed. Results showed that the 2-mm groove structure of the cylinder liner was more favorable for improving the wear performances at low speed, whereas a 3-mm groove structure of the cylinder liner was more suitable for improving the wear performance at higher speeds, though its wear performance needs to be improved under high load. These results help to understand the specific application of surface texture on the wear performance of the CLPR pair. 相似文献

AbstractIn the present study, the wear behaviour of cross ply (0/90°) C–C composite with 60 vol.-% fibres has been studied with sliding distance, applied load and sliding velocities. The measurement of specimen temperature has been carried out to study the effect of frictional heating. Furthermore, wear debris and wear track observations are correlated to understand the wear mechanism. The bulk wear increases linearly with distance after an initial running-in period. The temperature studies reveal that frictional heating is more with increase in load or sliding velocity under dry conditions, however, presence of lubrication reduces frictional heating, because exposure of surface for direct contact is reduced, and hence wear rate in all studies with lubrication is less than that under dry condition. The wear track studies show graphite powder, peeling of fibres and dislodging of the surface. At low loads, smearing of graphite powder keeps the wear rate low, but as the load increases; dislodging, delamination of surface and breaking of fibres dominate, and wear rate sharply increases, however, sliding velocity initially enhances the graphite formation reducing the wear, but as the velocity reached an optimum value, there is extensive breakage of fibres, dislodging and delamination of surface, and the wear rate increases sharply. 相似文献

The Study of Arc Rate,Friction, and Wear Performance of C/C Composites in Pantograph–Catenary System
A series of tests on arc rate, friction coefficient, and wear rate of electrical current collectors sliding against overhead contact wires under different conditions was carried out on a high-speed friction and wear testing machine with a pin-on-disc configuration. The worn surface morphology and composition were examined using a scanning electron microscope and energy dispersion spectrum analyzer, respectively. The effects of current, velocity, and load on the arc rate, friction coefficient, and wear rate of C/C composites/QCr0.5 couples were investigated, and the influence mechanism of test parameters on C/C composites was explained. It is concluded that the wear rate increases with an increase in current and velocity and has a decreasing trend with the increase in load. The friction coefficient increases with an increase in velocity and load. The arc rate of C/C composites/QCr0.5 couples increases with an increase in current and velocity. Under the condition of the same current and velocity, when the load is 70 N, the arc rate is the lowest. 相似文献

NiCr–Al2O3–SrSO4–Ag self-lubricating composites were prepared by powder metallurgy method and the tribological properties of composites were evaluated by a ball-on-disk tribometer against alumina ball at wide temperature range from the room temperature to 1,000 °C in air. The linear coefficient of thermal expansion was evaluated for investigation of thermal stability of composites. The tribo-chemical reaction films formed on the rubbing surfaces and their effects on the tribological properties of composites at different temperatures were addressed according to the surface characterization by SEM, XRD, and XPS. The results show that the NiCr–Al2O3 composite with addition of 10 wt% SrSO4 and 10 wt% Ag exhibits satisfying friction and wear properties over the entire temperature range from room temperature to 1,000 °C. The composition of the tribo-layers on the worn surfaces of the composites is varied at different temperatures. The synergistic lubricating effect of SrAl4O7, Ag, and NiCr2O4 lubricating films formed on worn surfaces were identified to reduce the friction coefficient and wear rate from room temperature to 800 °C. Meanwhile, at 1,000 °C, the SrCrO4 and NiAl2O4 was formed on the worn surfaces during sliding process, combining with the NiCr2O4, Al2O3, Cr2O3, Ag, and Ag2O, which play an important role in the formation of a continuous lubricating film on the sliding surface. 相似文献

Recently, titanium aluminium tantalum nitride (Ti–Al–Ta–N) coatings have been shown to exhibit beneficial properties for cutting
applications. However, the reason for the improved behaviour of these coatings in comparison to unalloyed Ti–Al–N is not yet
clear. Here, we report on the tribological mechanisms present in the temperature range between 25 and 900 °C for this coating
system, and in particular on the effect of the bias voltage during deposition on the tribological response. Based on these
results, we provide an explanation for the improved performance of Ta-alloyed coatings. An industrial-scale cathodic arc evaporation
facility was used to deposit the coatings from powder metallurgically produced Ti40Al60 and Ti38Al57Ta5 targets at bias voltages ranging from −40 to −160 V. X-ray diffraction experiments displayed a change with increasing bias
voltage from a dual-phase structure containing cubic and hexagonal phases to a single-phase cubic structure. Investigations
of the wear behaviour at various temperatures showed different controlling effects in the respective temperature ranges. The
results of dry sliding tests at room temperature were independent of bias voltage and Ta-alloying, where the atmosphere, i.e.
moisture and oxygen, were the most important parameters during the test. At 500 °C, bias and droplet-generated surface roughness
were identified to determine the tribological behaviour. At 700 and 900 °C, wear depended on the coating’s resistance to oxidation,
which was also influenced by the bias voltage. In conclusion, Ta-alloyed coatings show a significantly higher resistance to
oxidation than unalloyed Ti–Al–N which could be an important reason for the improved performance in cutting operations. 相似文献

AbstractIn recent years, there has been much attention on the effects of lubricant additives on the friction and wear properties of surface coatings. However, little research has been conducted to investigate the influence of antiwear additives on the tribological performances of titanium nitride (Ti–N) and titanium aluminium nitride (Ti–Al–N) coatings. It has been reported that introducing aluminium into Ti–N coatings enhanced their oxidation resistance. In this study utilising a pin on cylinder tribometer, lubricants containing zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate (ZDDP) or a more environmentally friendly alternative, ashless triphenyl phosphorothionate (TPPT), were used. Experimental results revealed that ZDDP and TPPT helped to reduce wear on both coatings through the formation of a tribofilm, although it was also found that both additives increased the friction coefficient on both surfaces. Based on overall findings, this paper suggests the use of TPPT as a suitable ZDDP replacement for providing wear protection on Ti–N and Ti–Al–N coatings. 相似文献

Solid particle erosion of polymer matrix composites is a complex process in which wear occurs from the target surface by impingement of rigid sand particles in an air medium. The rate of material removal (RMR), also referred to as the erosion rate, mainly depends on target material parameters and the erosion conditions such as impact angle, impact velocity, and erodent size. A new semi-empirical model for prediction of the erosion rate of polymer matrix composites has been developed using a dimensional analysis technique based on Buckingham's π theorem. The predictive model analytically rests upon parameters related to chopped glass fiber composites, erodent (target material properties), and operating variables that mainly affect the erosion process of chopped glass fiber–vinyl ester resin composites. The forecasting ability of the predictive model has been assessed and verified by experimental investigations for chopped glass fiber–reinforced vinyl ester resin (VGF) composites. Validation of the theoretical erosion rates obtained from the predictive model showed that they were in good agreement with the experimentally determined erosion rates, where the average error range was estimated to be ~10 to ~20%. 相似文献

In the present investigation, experiments were conducted by unidirectional sliding of pins made of FCC metals (Pb, Al, and
Cu) with significantly different hardness values against the steel plates of various surface textures and roughness using
an inclined pin-on-plate sliding apparatus in ambient conditions under both the dry and lubricated conditions. For a given
material pair, it was observed that transfer layer formation and the coefficient of friction along with its two components,
namely adhesion and plowing, are controlled by the surface texture of the harder mating surfaces and are less dependent of
surface roughness (R
a) of the harder mating surfaces. The effect of surface texture on the friction was attributed to the variation of the plowing
component of friction for different surfaces. It was also observed that the variation of plowing friction as a function of
hardness depends on surface textures. More specifically, the plowing friction varies with hardness of the soft materials for
a given type of surface texture and it is independent of hardness of soft materials for other type of surface texture. These
variations could be attributed to the extent of plane strain conditions taking place at the asperity level during sliding.
It was also observed that among the surface roughness parameters, the mean slope of the profile, Δ
a, correlated best with the friction. Furthermore, dimensionless quantifiable roughness parameters were formulated to describe
the degree of plowing taking place at the asperity level. 相似文献

The tribological behavior of a wide range of compositions using blends of aromatic thermosetting polyester (ATSP) with polytetrafluoroethylene
(PTFE) has been investigated. PTFE was chosen as the blending material because of its low coefficient of friction and good
performance at high temperatures and resistance to chemicals. ATSP blends were used to specifically combat some of the shortcomings
of PTFE like its extremely low wear resistance and poor mechanical properties, and special processing requirements due to
its high melt viscosity. Controlled tribological experiments simulating an air conditioning compressor operating with R134a
refrigerant under realistic operating conditions were carried out with different ATSP/PTFE compositions, as well as four different
state-of-the-art commercially available composites containing carbon fibers, graphite and PTFE. It was found that the newly
synthesized composites exhibited superb tribological characteristics as far as low friction and low wear were concerned. The
wear performance of PTFE was greatly improved, while it was shown that greater amounts of ATSP used in the blend lead to lower
wear and the amount of ATSP did not significantly alter the friction coefficient. Material transfer and development of a weak
film on the disk surface was observed, especially for the blends with higher PTFE content. 相似文献
