Transfer lubrication is defined as lubrication provided by the continuous transfer of solid lubricant to sliding/rolling interfaces. The lubricant may either be incorporated within a self-lubricating composite or supplied from an auxiliary component. Both routes require similar research information on the factors influencing film formation, friction and wear, and film failure. This paper reviews what is known about these aspects for solid lubricants appropriate to high temperature applications (≥300°C). Areas are identified in which further research is needed.

Self Lubricating Composites

This chapter illustrates the effect of the addition of solid lubricants on the high temperature friction and wear behavior of Ni-based composites. Ni-based composites containing solid lubricant particles both in nano and micrometer range have been fabricated through powder metallurgy route. In order to explore the possible synergetic action of a combination of low and high temperature solid lubricant, nano or micro powders of two or more solid lubricants were added in the composites. This chapter introduces the fabrication of the Ni-based self-lubricating composites containing graphite and/or MoS2, Ag and/or rare earth, Ag and/or hBN as solid lubricants and their friction and wear behavior at room and elevated temperatures. The chapter also includes information on some lubricating composite coatings such as electro-deposited nickel-base coating containing graphite, MoS2, or BN and graphene and their tribological characteristics.

The development of advanced solid lubricants is of considerable importance to space tribology. The most common solid lubricant coatings today are based on MoS2, lead or PTFE. However, none of these coatings can simultaneously fulfill all specifications, with regard to friction and wear, under ambient atmosphere and in vacuum. Consequently research is currently being aimed at further improvements in advanced solid lubricant coatings. One approach is to optimize Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) coatings to meet the specifications. In this study, the feasibility of highly hydrogenated DLC coatings (∼ 50 at% hydrogen) for solid lubricant applications is assessed. The coatings were deposited on AISI 52100 steel substrates and tested in ball-on-disc tribometers in air, vacuum and dry nitrogen environments. It was found that the test environment has the most decisive effect on both friction and wear rate, while these parameters are only slightly affected by varying the applied load under a given atmosphere. It was concluded that highly hydrogenated DLC coatings are capable of yielding ultra-low friction values in vacuum (μ = 0.008). The average friction coefficient range obtained in humid air, dry nitrogen and vacuum for the range of applied loads were respectively 0.22 to 0.27, 0.02 to 0.03, and 0.007 to 0.013. Coating lifetime was over 100 000 cycles for the entire load range tested in air and nitrogen, but was affected by the applied load as far as tests in vacuum are considered. The specific wear rate was lower than 1×10–5 mm3 N-1 m-1 under all test conditions, which was considered favourable.

Abstract High-velocity oxyfuel (HVOF) sprayed coatings of Cr3C2-NiCr containing solid lubricants such as nickel cladded graphite and hexagonal boron nitride were successfully developed and characterised with the aim of optimizing their friction and wear behaviour. HVOF technology was used for the integration of solid lubricants to achieve strong cohesion between particles while minimizing thermal decomposition. Coating microstructure and composition were measured and correlated to the results of tribological and corrosion tests. The integration of the solid lubricant greatly reduced friction and wear volume at room temperature, but the lubricating effect was highly dependent on atmosphere and temperature. Cr3C2-NiCr with hBN, however, tends to exhibit more stable wear resistance over a wider temperature range and can be used at temperatures beyond 450 °C.

WS2has excellent tribological properties; it is emerging of lubricating materials. MoS2is commonly used solid lubricants and wide range of applications, but its poor heat resistance. WS2can well make up for the inadequate performance of the MoS2, but uses it as a solid lubricant in performance research on metallic materials. By friction and wear testing, the paper gets feasibility analysis of the application that WS2instead of MoS2in the field of solid lubrication, while exploring the synergies between them, laying the foundations for the manufacture of new types of composite lubrication coatings.

AbstractHigh-temperature solid lubricants play a significant role in the hot metal forming process. However, preparing high-temperature solid lubricant is formidably challenging due to the stern working conditions. Here we successfully develop a new type of eco-friendly high-temperature graphite-based solid lubricant by using amorphous silica dioxide, aluminum dihydrogen phosphate, and solid lubricant graphite. The solid lubricating coating exhibits excellent tribological properties with a very low friction coefficient and good wear protection for workpiece at high temperature under the air atmosphere. An array of analytical techniques reveals the existence of solid lubricant graphite in the lubricating coating after the high-temperature friction test. A synergistic effect between the protective surface film and the solid lubricant graphite is proposed to account for such superior lubricating performance. This work highlights the synergistic effect between the protection layer and the lubricant graphite and further provides the insight in designing the high-temperature solid lubricant.

Wear Rates

The high-temperature friction and wear characteristics of different ceramics and ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) incorporated with various solid lubricants have been investigated from room temper- ature to 1000oC. The solid lubricants considered in this paper include representative precious metals, hexagonal boron nitride, graphite, fluorides, soft oxides, chromates, sulfates, and combinations of various solid lubricants. General design considerations relevant to solid lubrication were proposed on the basis of friction and wear data of self-lubricating CMCs. The self-lubricating composites incorporated with SrSO4 or/and CaSiO3 exhibits low and stable friction coefficients of 0.2 to 0.3 and small wear rates in the order of 10-6 mm3/Nm from room temperature to 800oC. The optimized composites appear to be promising can- didates for long-duration, extreme environment applications with low friction and small wear rate.
