The effects of phosphorus on the friction and wear characteristics of Cu-5 at. percent Sn-P alloys containing 1–5 at. percent P were studied using a pin on disc apparatus. The results showed that the decrease in both the coefficient of friction and the rate of wear became conspicuous with the increase in quantity of Cu3P coexisting in the matrix; its amount increases with the content of phosphorus. The structural changes in the surface of the specimen due to heating in a vacuum were observed by using Auger electron spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was seen that the surface concentration of phosphorus strongly increased after heating at 573K, whereas the diffusion of tin atoms was markedly retarded. It was concluded from these results that the behavior of phosphorus atoms in the surface during sliding played an important role in the friction and wear characteristics of Cu-Sn-P alloys.

Pin-on-disk unidirectional sliding friction and wear experiments for an aluminum alloy impregnated carbon composite in contact with a bearing steel were carried out at various levels of contact load in wet and dry air. The aluminum alloy impregnated carbon composite exhibits better friction and wear characteristics than the matrix materials, aluminum alloy and graphite in wet air. The coefficient of friction and wear rate decrease, especially at high loads in wet air. Graphite, together with metallic and oxidative wear particles, adheres to the disk sliding surface of the bearing steel, resulting in the formation of compacted, uniform surface films. The films prevent metal-to-metal contact, achieving a good sliding friction and wear condition.

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.

Abstract Friction and wear characteristics correlating the fiber reinforcement percentage of carbon-carbon (C/C) composites solely developed from petroleum pitch matrices were investigated. This study exhibits the tribo-characteristics of C/C composites developed in a single-step carbonization process for varying loads for the first time without a reimpregnation process. A pin-on-disc tribometer with a sliding speed of 0.5 m/s and loads of 5, 10, and 20 N with a flat tool grade stainless steel pin as a static partner was employed. Further, polarized light optical and scanning electron microscopes (SEM) were utilized for a morphological analysis. Elastic modulus and strength were determined by a compression test. A result analysis is conducted to analyze sliding wear accompanied with minor abrasion. The composites with a high percentage of reinforcement exhibit credible wear resistance and mechanical robustness.

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.

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.

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.


This paper aims to present comparative study of friction and wear characteristics of non-asbestos rubber resin bonded metallic based brake pad material. Friction material was compression moulded and machined to a sample size. Their physical and mechanical properties were studied. Experiments were conducted using Pin-on-disc test set-up against EN31 disc. Coefficient of friction and wear was measured for metallic based brake materials at varying conditions of temperature, sliding velocity, pressure and sliding distance. When brake pads are in contact with brake disc, heat is generated hence thermal behaviour of metallic based brake material and its impact on friction and wear were studied. Experiments, based on Taguchi’s analysis technique, using L9 orthogonal array were performed. On the basis of experimental results and S/N ratio analyses, ranking of the parameters have been done. It was found that temperature (95.37 %) and sliding velocity (2.99 %) are most affecting parameters in friction, However temperature (82.96 %) and pressure (6.80) in wear. The elemental composition of metallic based brake material was measured by EDS technique. SEM micrographs of brake pad samples were tested at different magnifications. Further detailed studies are suggested to evaluate wear rate, stopping distance under simulative test conditions alternate to asbestos based brake pad material.

In this world demand for bio lubricants which are easily decomposing, non-toxic and non-polluting is increasing day by day. This paper describes and compares the friction and wear characteristics of Pongamia blended lubricant with Cardanol blended lubricant by using Pin on disc wear testing Tribometer. For the preparation of blended lubricants, cardanol and pongamia based biodiesel were blended with base lubricant SAE20W40 in the ratios of 5, 10, and 20% on volume basis. The friction and wear characteristics of Cardanol and pongamia blended bio lubricants were carried out at the loads of 50N, 100N and 150N with the sliding velocity of 2.5m/s. By adding 5% and 10% pongamia biodiesel with base lubricant, less wear rate was observed. When this limit wear rate exceeds is also increasing gradually. While carrying out the wear test with Cardanol oil blended lubricant, least wear rate was observed during the addition of 5% and 20% Cardanol oil blended lubricant with base lubricant. The wear rate was increased while adding 10% of Cardanol oil blended lubricant with base lubricant. It has been concluded that CBL 5 and CBL 15 can act as an alternative lubricant at minimum and maximum load to increase mechanical efficiency at 2.5m/s sliding velocity and dependency on petroleum-based products was reduced with its contribution

PurposeThis paper aims to report the friction and wear characteristics of refined soybean oil (RSBO) blended with copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles and zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP) as additives.Design/methodology/approachFour different concentrations 0.04, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2 Wt.% of CuO nanoparticles were added with ZDDP in RSBO. The friction and wear characteristics of lubricants have been investigated on a pin-on-disc tribotester under loads of 120 and 180 N, with rotating speeds of 1,200 and 1,500 rpm in half hour of operating time. The dispersion stability of CuO nanoparticles has been analyzed using ultraviolet visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. The wearout surface of pins has been examined by using a scanning electron microscope.FindingsThe results revealed that there is a reduction in the friction and wear by the addition of CuO nanoparticles and ZDDP in RSBO. Coefficient of friction increases at a high sliding speed for RSBO with ZDDP. From UV-Vis spectroscopy, it is observed that 100 ml of oleic acid surfactant per gram of CuO nanoparticles has stable dispersion in RSBO.Originality/valueThe addition of ZDDP and CuO nanoparticles in RSBO is more efficient to reduce the friction and wear in comparison to base oil. The optimum concentration of CuO nanoparticles in RSBO is 0.05 Wt.%.
