Effects of fluoropolymer addition to an epoxy on scratch depth and recovery

Samples were prepared by addition of a fluorinated poly(aryl ether ketone) (12F-PEK) to a commercial epoxy resin and curing at either 24 °C or 70 °C. The concentrations of fluoropolymer in the samples were 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%. Phase inversion facilitates the formation of more and more smooth surfaces for scratch testing with increasing fluoropolymer concentration. A progressively increasing load from 0.03 N to 12 N was administered with a diamond tip to the surfaces of the samples; depths were determined within ±7.5 nm. The original scratch depth is a function of the fluoropolymer concentration. Scratch recovery (healing) reaches values up to 95%. Plots of the residual depth versus concentration of the fluoropolymer at 4, 6, 8, and 10 N reveal minima for all forces and both temperatures. Addition of only 5% or 10% 12F-PEK improves the scratch recovery significantly. The results are explained by changes of material morphology with the fluoropolymer concentration.

Synthesis of diamond crystals and films using an oxygen-acetylene flame under atmosheric pressure

Diamond growth with rates up to 100 to 140 μm/hr was achieved using an oxygen-acetylene combustion spraying technique in an atmospheric environment. Investigations on the processing indicated that the gas flow ratio, substrate position, substrate temperature, temperature distribution, and substrate pretreatment were the most important factors affecting the growth of diamond crystals. Evaluation by means of X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and electron probe microanalysis showed that the synthesized diamond was nearly perfect in morphology, structure, and purity.     

Effect of partitioning on microstructure and properties of a medium carbon Ti Mo bearing high strength Q&P steel

In order to investigate the effect of partitioning procedures on microstructure and properties of a medium carbon Ti Mo bearing steel, the salt bath experiment, field emission SEM, TEM and tensile tests as well as wear tests were utilized to clarify the microstructural evolution and property changes treated by different partitioning parameters. The results show that the microstructures consist of tempered lath martensite, cementite and (Ti, Mo)C particles. With prolonging partitioning time or increasing partitioning temperature, the amount of laths martensite decreases and thicker martensite plates with blunt boundaries appear. In addition, with increasing partitioning temperature from 310℃ to 400℃, the tensile strength, hardness and low temperature toughness are simultaneously decreased, and the reduction reaches up to about 300MPa, 100HV and 20J, respectively. Finally, the wear performance of the samples partitioned below Ms is obviously better than that of samples partitioned above Ms. The morphology of worn surface of samples partitioned below Ms is characterized by plastic fatigue morphology, while the worn surfaces of samples partitioned above Ms are mainly dominated by grooves.     

Stepwise-Graded Si3N4–SiC Ceramics with Improved Wear Properties

The processing of stepwise graded Si₃N₄/SiC ceramics by pressureless co-sintering is described. Here, SiC (high elastic modulus, high thermal expansion coefficient) forms the substrate and Si₃N₄ (low elastic modulus, low thermal expansion coefficient) forms the top contact surface, with a stepwise gradient in composition existing between the two over a depth of ∼1.7 mm. The resulting Si₃N₄ contact surface is fine-grained and dense, and it contains only 2 vol% yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) additive. This graded ceramic shows resistance to cone-crack formation under Hertzian indentation, which is attributed to a combined effect of the elastic-modulus gradient and the compressive thermal-expansion-mismatch residual stress present at the contact surface. The presence of the residual stress is corroborated and quantified using Vickers indentation tests. The graded ceramic also possesses wear properties that are significantly improved compared with dense, monolithic Si₃N₄ containing 2 vol% YAG additive. The improved wear resistance is attributed solely to the large compressive stress present at the contact surface. A modification of the simple wear model by Lawn and co-workers is used to rationalize the wear results. Results from this work clearly show that the introduction of surface compressive residual stresses can significantly improve the wear resistance of polycrystalline ceramics, which may have important implications for the design of contact-damage-resistant ceramics.

Morphological aspects of rubber fracture and wear

Morphology of carbon black (CB)‐filled rubber was studied with AFM and SEM and the classification of filler agglomerates, based on their internal structure and filler–matrix interactions, has been proposed. It varies according to the activity of CB and the kind of rubber. It has been shown that fracture of rubber starts either inside filler agglomerates (de‐cohesion) or in a filler–matrix interphase (de‐adhesion) initiating wear of the material. Microscopic observations correlate well with TGA and EPR data of wear debris collected during friction of rubber. The increase of thermal stability of CB and the appearance of additional spin signals, respectively, for elongated samples or debris, are proposed to be associated with de‐cohesion or de‐adhesion of the agglomerates. New approach to the fracture of rubber called “fatal agglomerate concept” is presented. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2008
