Polyimide (PI) is one of the most excellent polymers for coating. However, the high friction coefficient and the high wear rate of pure PI limit its further applications. In this work, the hollow inorganic fullerene-like MoS2/reduced graphene oxide (HIF-MoS2/r-GO) nanocomposite filled PI coating is prepared by in situ polymerization. Reinforcement in mechanical strength and thermal stability is realized on the PI composite coating with incorporation of HIF-MoS2/r-GO, which performs better than carbon nanofiber (CNF). Reduced elastic modulus and hardness of HIF-MoS2/r-GO/PI coating is increased by 8.3% and 4.8%, respectively. The addition of HIF-MoS2/r-GO also results in 24% higher residual mass at 800 °C than CNF. Tribological study indicates that, HIF-MoS2/r-GO/PI achieves a wear rate reduction of 79% compared with pure PI under dry sliding condition, which is much more effective than other nanofillers including CNF, r-GO nanosheets and MoS2 nanoparticles. Under ionic liquid-lubricated condition, the presence of HIF-MoS2/r-GO in PI results in a 30% reduction in wear rate and 10% reduction in friction coefficient as compared to pure PI. It is thought that the HIF-MoS2/r-GO in PI can be slowly released to the frictional interface and form a protective film during sliding, in this way the aggregation problem is successfully solved.

This paper primarily focused on the dynamic tribology properties of one certain nonasbestos organic (NAO) friction material by using an approximate in situ method. This study was performed through a pad-on-disk type friction tester under different temperature conditions. Results showed that temperature has a significant effect on the dynamic tribology performance. At 100 °C, friction coefficient and wear rate after the running-in stage varied little with time. At 250 °C, friction coefficient after the running-in stage increased gradually and then tended to be stable, while wear rate decreased gradually. From 100 to 350 °C, friction coefficient increased first as a function of temperature, but decreased sharply when the temperature was over 250 °C. Simultaneously, wear rate also increased sharply over 250 °C. Additionally, three dynamic evolution models of worn surfaces corresponding to different cases were established.

This study pertains to observations made on the abrasive wear response of Al-TiC composites under varying applied load and traversal distance conditions. The influence of TiC particle reinforcement and its content in the matrix on the abrasion characteristics of the samples was investigated. The composites were prepared by generating the reinforcement phase (TiC particles) from within the matrix employing a hybrid in-situ technique consisting of a combination of steps involved in powder and liquid metallurgy routes of synthesizing metal matrix composites. The unreinforced matrix alloy (AA2014) was also tested under identical experimental conditions for comparison purposes. Properties characterized were wear rate, frictional heating and friction coefficient. Microstructural features of the samples and characteristics of wear surfaces, subsurface regions and abrasive medium have also been examined.   The TiC reinforcement led to improved abrasion resistance (inverse of wear rate), the degree of improvement increasing further with the rising concentration of the TiC particles in the alloy matrix. Increasing applied load led to deterioration in the wear behaviour of the samples while a reverse trend was followed as the traversal distance was raised. The severity of frictional heating was noted to increase with load. On the contrary, friction coefficient tended to decrease with increasing load except for the composite containing the highest concentration of TiC wherein a reverse trend was noticed. Both frictional heating and friction coefficient increased sharply with traversal distance initially. This was followed by a reduction in the rate of temperature increase at longer traversal distances whereas friction coefficient was observed to attain steady state condition after showing a decrease in some cases. The presence of TiC reinforcement in the alloy matrix and its increasing content led to a decrease in the friction coefficient and the severity of frictional heating. The observed wear behaviour has been substantiated through the characteristics of abraded surfaces and subsurface regions of the samples and degradation of the abrasive medium. Operating material removal mechanisms have also been examined.

Purpose This paper aims to improve the tribological properties of aluminum alloys and reduce their wear rate. Design/methodology/approach Carbon is placed in the model at room temperature, pour 680°C of molten aluminum into the pressure chamber, and then pressed it into the mold containing carbon felt through a die casting machine, and waited for it to cool, which used an injection pressure of 52.8 MPa and held the same pressure for 15 s. Findings The result indicated that the mechanical properties of matrix and composite are similar, and the compressive strength of the composite is only 95% of the matrix alloy. However, the composite showed a low friction coefficient, the friction coefficient of Gr/Al composite is only 0.15, which just is two-third than that of the matrix alloy. Similarly, the wear rate of the composite is less than 4% of the matrix. In addition, the composite can avoid severe wear before 200°C, but the matrix alloy only 100°C. Originality/value This material has excellent friction properties and is able to maintain this excellent performance at high temperatures.

The effect of nanoscale surface texture on the frictional and wear performances of nanocrystalline diamond films under water-lubricating conditions were comparatively investigated using a reciprocating ball-on-flat tribometer. Although the untreated nanocrystalline diamond film shows a stable frictional state with an average friction coefficient of 0.26, the subsequent textured films show a beneficial effect on rapidly reducing the friction coefficient, which decreased to a stable value of 0.1. Furthermore, compared with the nanocrystalline diamond coating, the textured films showed a large decreasing rate of the corresponding ball wear rate from 4.16 × 10−3 to 1.15 × 10−3 mm3/N/m. This is due to the fact that the hydrodynamic fluid film composed of water and debris can provide a good lubrication environment, so the entire friction process has reached the state of fluid lubrication. Meanwhile, the surface texture can greatly improve the hydrophilicity of the diamond films, and as the texture density increases, the water contact angle decreases from 94.75° of the nanocrystalline diamond film to 78.5° of the textured films. The proper textured diamond film (NCD90) exhibits superior tribological properties among all tested diamond films, such as short run-in period, low coefficient of friction, and wear rate.

Laser polishing is a widely used technology to improve the surface quality of the products. However, the investigation on the physical mechanism is still lacking. In this paper, the established numerical transient model reveals the rough surface evolution mechanism during laser polishing. Mass transfer driven by Marangoni force, surface tension and gravity appears in the laser-induced molten pool so that the polished surface topography tends to be smoother. The AlSi10Mg samples fabricated by laser-based powder bed fusion were polished at different laser hatching spaces, passes and directions to gain insight into the variation of the surface morphologies, roughness and microhardness in this paper. The experimental results show that after laser polishing, the surface roughness of Ra and Sa of the upper surface can be reduced from 12.5 μm to 3.7 μm and from to 29.3 μm to 8.4 μm, respectively, due to sufficient wetting in the molten pool. The microhardness of the upper surface can be elevated from 112.3 HV to 176.9 HV under the combined influence of the grain refinement, elements distribution change and surface defects elimination. Better surface quality can be gained by decreasing the hatching space, increasing polishing pass or choosing apposite laser direction.

The tribological properties of polyimide (PI) composites reinforced with graphite or MoS2 sliding in liquid alkali and water as well as dry friction were investigated using a ring-on-ring tester. The results show that the friction coefficient (μ) and wear rate (W) for both graphite/PI and MoS2/PI composites in different liquid mediums are μdry>μwater >μalkali and Wwater>Wdry >Walkali. Results also indicate that the friction coefficient and wear rate of the PI composites filled with different solid lubricants are μMoS2 >μgraphite and W MoS2 >Wgraphite in different liquid mediums. In addition, the hydrophobic inorganic fillers are fit for the reinforcement of polymer-based composites sliding in liquid mediums. It is also concluded from the authors’ work that the wear rate and friction coefficient of polymer-based (such as PI, PTFE) composites in the alkali lubricated conditions is lowest among all the friction conditions. This may be attributed to the ionic hydration in the alkaline solution.
