Wear Tests

Wear tests of ferrite (pure α-Fe) and austenite (AISI 304 stainless steel) implanted with nitrogen have been conducted using a unique oscillating pin-on-disk test machine. The results show that nitrogen implantation at elevated temperatures to high doses dramatically improves the adhesive wear resistance of ferrite and the critical load at which the wear mechanism changes from mild to severe adhesive wear for austenite. The wear resistance of nitrogen implanted ferrite is determined by the nitride formed. Ranked from most to least wear resistant the nitrides observed are γ’-Fe4N, ε-Fe3N, and ζ-Fe2N. No evidence of nitride break-up and attendant nitrogen migration during wear testing is found. Nitrogen does diffuse into both ferrite and austenite rapidly when they are implanted at an elevated temperature and this enhances their wear resistances.

Wear Tests

The sliding wear of four different compositions of novel low temperature degradation-free zirconia/alumina (LTD-free Z/A) composites were characterized in a ceramicceramic point contact pair. The wear tests were performed by a pin-on-disk type wear tester in a linear reciprocal sliding motion with a point contact in both dry and bovine serum lubricated conditions at room temperature. For the dry sliding wear tests, AZ-2 (20 vol% (Y,Nb,Ce)-TZP/ 80 vol% Al2O3) showed the best wear resistance among four kinds of LTD-free Z/A composites. For the bovine serum lubricated sliding wear tests, wear was too little to be measured for all kinds of Z/A composites. These novel LTD-free Z/A composites having excellent wear resistance demonstrated a potential as the alternative materials for the ceramic- ceramic contact pairs of femoral head and acetabular liner in total hip replacement.

Boronizing is one of the thermochemical surface treatment processes which is extensively used to obtain excellent mechanical properties such as high strength, very high hardness, good toughness and fracture toughness. In this study, AISI 1050 steel specimens have been subjected to pack boronizing process by using Ekabor 2 powder within the stainless steel seal container. The experiments were carried out at temperatures of 800 °C, 850 °C and 900 °C for 3, 6 and 9 hours to investigate the effect of these parameters on the wear resistance of boronized specimens. Pin-on-Disk wear testing is used to characterize wear properties of boronized specimens. Wear tests were performed at dry conditions under constant load of 30 N by using 220 mesh size Al2O3 abrasive paper. Different rotating speeds of the pin-on disk were selected as 300, 600, 900, 1200, 1500 revolutions for each of the test specimens. After the abrasive tests, weight losses of the specimens were measured to determine the abrasive wear resistance of boronized specimens. The results were also compared with unboronized and conventional hardened AISI 1050 steel specimens respectively.

Wear Tests

Wear tests were performed on various expanded PTFE / epoxy composite films, using a 304 stainless steel pin, in a pin on disk configuration. The density and thickness of the expanded PTFE films were varied, and the effects on friction and wear were examined. It was found that there are trends for increased wear resistance with increasing density, and increasing film thickness. Wear rates less than 10−8 mm3/Nm were calculated on some of the composite films. The film thickness range from 75–510μm and the density ranged from 0.304 to 0.904 g/cm3. The tests were run at a 5N load and 1m/s sliding speed with varying sliding distances.

This work presents wear study on maraging steel developed by additive manufacturing using Direct Metal Laser Sintering, utilizing a laser beam of high-power density for melting and fusing the metallic powders. Short aging treatment was given to the specimen prior to the wear tests. The density and the hardness of the 3D printed maraging steel were found to be better than the homogenized-aged 18Ni1900 maraging steel. The wear resistance is an important aspect that influences the functionality of the components. The wear tests in dry condition were performed on maraging steel on pin/disc standard wear testing machine. The design of experiments was planned and executed based on response surface methodology. This technique is employed to investigate three influencing and controlling constraints namely speed, load, and distance of sliding. It has been observed that sliding speed and normal load significantly affects the wear of the specimen. The statistical optimization confirms that the normal load, sliding distance, and speed are significant for reducing the wear rate. The confirmation test was conducted with a 95% confidence interval using optimal parameters for validation of wear test results. A mathematical model was developed to estimate the wear rate. The experimental results were matched with the projected values. The wear test parameters for minimum and maximum wear rate have been determined.

ABSTRACTTitanium and many of its alloys show very poor wear resistance considering their hardness. This together with high thermodynamic driving forces to form very hard compounds between titanium and nitrogen or carbon made titanium based alloys obvious candidates for ion implantation. In this paper the effects of similar implanted concentration profiles of nitrogen and carbon in two titanium alloys are compared. The wear behavior of pin on disk wear tests are reported along with the ultramicrohardness of the four samples.

Wear Tests

Wear is one of the most worrying problems in industry; it affects many production sectors. Therefore, the wear resistance of materials must be assessed in order to predict their response and anticipate possible failures. Maintenance could then be scheduled accordingly. Due to the large number of situations where wear is important, one of the main complications in tribology is that it is difficult to replicate in a laboratory the precise conditions of service. Thus, there is a need to choose between different kinds of tests to simulate actual conditions. However, this aim is difficult to achieve, as variables and conditions of service are numerous. In this situation, it is neither practical nor possible to have as many test devices in the laboratory as real possibilities. It is necessary to find a test that can be extrapolated to many possible situations. An important question is if the results obtained with different configurations simulated in the laboratory are good equivalents or, on the contrary, the choice of method has an influence and to what extent the latter case is true. In addition, it should be noted that wear test standards mention how difficult it is to reproduce results and how they are influenced by operating conditions In this paper, three wear tests methods are studied- the pin-on-disk, dry sand/rubber wheel test and wet sand/rubber wheel- in order to find a relationship between the results obtained by them. Furthermore, different techniques are analysed to establish, if possible, which ones are more likely to achieve more reliable results.
