Friction And Wear Characteristics

An investigation was conducted to determine the friction and wear characteristics of hot-pressed silicon nitride. Sliding produced wear debris and a damaged surface. The physical and crystallographic morphology of surfaces was compared with that of diamond ground surfaces. Wear tests were done with pin-on-disk apparatus at a load of 10N with various sliding speeds to 780 mm/s, and in four different environments which included in dry nitrogen, in air at humidities of 50 percent RH and 90 percent RH, and in distilled water. The results of the wear experiments indicated that residual α-silicon nitride was transformed into β-silicon nitride. Adsorbed water appeared to enhance plastic flow of the surface and reduced both the wear rate and friction. A second investigation was conducted to correlate the coefficient of friction with the fracture toughness of silicon nitride, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide and zirconium oxide. The friction experiments were done in reciprocating sliding, using spherical diamonds. Two tip radii, 0.005 mm and 0.1 mm were used over a range of load of 0.1 to 3N and a speed of 0.17 mm/s. The coefficient of friction was found to be inversely correlated with fracture toughness of all four ceramics in several conditions. Frictional anisotropy was also observed in the hot-pressed silicon nitride.

Friction And Wear Characteristics

The dispenser ejects the ceramic filler and phosphor-containing liquid for making various products. When the particle-containing liquid is ejected under high-velocity conditions, however, the ejection reliability decreases because of the wear of the contact surface between the rod and nozzle even though these components are made of hard materials. It is therefore necessary to characterize the friction and wear properties of the hard materials, tungsten carbide (WC) and zirconium (Zr), with the high-viscosity liquid-containing nitride or yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) particles under reciprocating conditions. Particle contents of 15 wt.% and 30 wt.% are added to the liquid. A reciprocating test was implemented to this end, and WC and Zr specimens were used. The liquid used in the experiment contains nitride and YAG. The experimental results show that the particles inside the liquid are worn out, leading to particle lubrication and the decrease in the coefficient of friction. Also, it is confirmed that the more the particles are, the less the coefficient of friction is due to particle lubrication. For each experimental condition, the coefficient of friction is measured and compared. Moreover, the contact surface of the specimen is analyzed using an electron microscope, and a profilometer is used to measure the surface roughness of the specimen before and after the test. The reciprocation friction and wear characteristics of WC and Zr with phosphor-containing liquid are evaluated by analyzing the experimental results.

The tribological behavior of graphene and graphite as additives in canola oil was investigated with a pin-on-disk tribometer. The wear surfaces of the aluminum pins lubricated with the additive-containing canola oil were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was found that graphene and graphite as additives in oil show a lower coefficient of friction and wear rate in comparison with neat canola oil. The graphene sheets are more effective than graphite flakes to reduce friction and wear. In addition, there is a proper concentration where the coefficient of friction (COF) and wear are in minimum value. The optimal concentration of the additive in canola oil is about 0.7 wt %. Therefore, the load-carrying capacity and antiwear ability of the lubricating oil are improved. Moreover, the worn surface of aluminum pins is smother in the presence of solid lubricant rather than neat oil.

Friction And Wear Characteristics

Owing to the superior properties of stainless steel it is pertinent to make use of it in various applications of automotive, aerospace, nuclear, chemical and cryogenic products. This paper describes a study of friction characteristics of SUS304 and SUS630 stainless steel disk specimens against silicon nitride Si3N4 ball in dry, grease-, and oil-lubricated conditions and wear characteristics in dry condition in sliding contact. The ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM) technology was applied to those disk specimens and its friction and wear properties were compared with polished one. The experiment was conducted with a pin-on-disk tribo tester using ball-on-disk contact geometry at room temperature. The experiment results show that in dry, greased- and oil-lubrication conditions the coefficient of friction of UNSM-treated specimens was lower and constant than polished specimens and in dry condition the wear rate was also smaller than polished one. Micro dimples made by UNSM treatment contribute those effects.

Just like MoS2, WS2 is known for its outstanding tribologic properties. When used as additives, both were found to considerably improve the tribologic behavior of epoxy, i.e., its coefficient of friction and wear resistance. The best improvements were obtained with WS2 or MoS2 nanoparticles, in particular if they had a fullerene-like morphology. Likewise, fullerene-like WS2 nanoparticles were shown to considerably enhance the fracture toughness of epoxy. It was thus hypothesized that the improved wear resistance could be due to the toughening effect rather than due to reduced friction. Our investigations showed that both flaky and fullerene-like WS2 nanoparticles can improve the fracture toughness of certain epoxy systems, while they can embrittle others. The beneficial effect on the epoxy’s wear resistance could not be confirmed either: The coefficient of friction and wear measured in pin-on-disc tests correlated insignificantly with the type or amount of nanoparticles used or the dispersion technique applied. The fact that the fracture toughness did not correlate with the measured wear suggests that the investigated epoxy system wears by adhesion rather than by abrasion. It is thus possible that tribologic additives like WS2 are unsuited for counteracting this wear mechanism. In a nutshell, both the toughening and the wear-reducing effect of flaky and fullerene-like WS2 nanoparticles seem to depend strongly on the particular epoxy system investigated.

Friction And Wear Characteristics

The friction and wear of the silicon carbide (SiC) and hot pressed silicon nitride (Si3N4) against zirconia (Y–TZP) sliding under dry friction and room temperature conditions were investigated with pin-on-disk tribometer at sliding speed of 0.56 m·s-1 and normal load of 50 N, 80 N and 120 N, respectively. It was found that, the coefficient of friction and wear rate are dependent on the test duration as well as the normal load. Through analyzing and comparing, the wear rates of the two frictional couples both are in the 10-6 mm3 (N·m)-1. Based on the variety regulation of the wear maps, the wear mechanisms of the two couples were analyzed. Between the two couples, the friction and wear characteristics of the SiC/ZrO2 couple are better than the Si3N4/ZrO2 couple’s.

Friction And Wear Characteristics

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to carry out research on friction and wear behavior of pin-bushing with magnetorheological fluids (MRFs). Design/methodology/approach The oscillation friction characteristics of MRFs with a magnetic field are evaluated by a pin-bushing friction wear tester. The housing is adjusted to apply the magnetic field to MRFs. Experiments are carried out with and without a magnetic field, and the coefficient of friction and temperature on the contact interface are measured. The surfaces of the pin and bushing are also examined by a surface profilometer and an optical microscope before and after tests. The experiment results show a lower coefficient of friction is observed when a magnetic field is applied. Findings The temperature is lowest when grease is used. The case when a magnetic field is present shows the higher temperature. The coefficient of friction is higher than grease lubrication when an MRF is applied. The coefficient of friction of the pin-bushing is lowest with grease and highest when a magnetic field is present. The friction coefficient of grease and MRFs decreases as the load increases and remains stable after 3 kN is added. The roughness, surface profile and morphology of the pin show the best results when grease is used as compared with MRFs. Originality/value The tribology characteristic of pin-bushing with MRFs shows more deficiency than that with grease. Nevertheless, it is necessary to carry out the research on the friction and wear characteristics of a pin-bushing with MRFs, as it is expected to increase the load-carrying capacity when an MRF is applied to the pin-bush system. Better friction and wear characteristics could be achieved by enhancing the property of MRFs.

Friction And Wear Tests

In this study, the tribological behavior of lamellar ZrS2 nanobelts as lubricant additives was investigated under different concentrations, normal load, velocity, and temperature. The friction and wear tests were performed using a tribometer and with a reciprocating motion. The results indicate that the lamellar ZrS2 nanobelt additives can effectively reduce the coefficient of friction and running-in time during the running-in period. With the addition of ZrS2, the wear volumes decrease significantly. The wear is mostly influenced by the tribological performance throughout the running-in period. The lower the running-in time and coefficient of friction are during the running-in period, the less amount of wear is shown. ZrS2 can significantly increase the load-carrying capacity of oil. The 1.0 wt% concentration of ZrS2 yields the best antifriction effect, antiwear performance, and load-carrying capacity. The ZrS2 additives can increase the working temperature of the oil. The friction-reducing and antiwear mechanisms of lamellar ZrS2 were discussed.

The effects of contact area and contact stress on friction and wear of polyethylene-metal articulation were evaluated using a bidirectional pin-on-disk apparatus. A doubling of the contact area under fixed loading conditions led to a 50% increase in the coefficient of friction and a doubling of the wear rate. There appeared to be a relationship between the increase in wear rate and the increase in the coefficient of friction. A model was developed to explain the mechanism by which engagement of asperities results in the increasing wear rate with increasing contact area despite the decreased stress.
