Carbon fibers have been used as additional reinforcing fibers to improve the mechanical and tribological properties of phenolic resin-based ceramic-carbon composites. The composites comprising ceramic particulates such as Silicon carbide, Boron carbide of 1-30 micron size as reinforcement and phenolic resin as matrix carbon precursor were prepared by compaction method followed by carbonization to 1000 °C in inert atmosphere. Experimental results indicate that carbonization results in decrease in thickness and weight, the amount of reduction increasing with addition of carbon fibers results in compact high density composites. Composites comprising of 10 wt. % fibers exhibited maximum hardness, compressive strength and density after  carbonization. Tribological properties of the composites were evaluated against Cr6 ball using a pin-on-disc Tribometer with different linear speed, sliding distance and load conditions. It was found that the composites filled with lower amount of carbon fibers showed relatively higher friction coefficient value. Also, it was noted that friction coefficient increases with increase in the applied load (1N, 2N and 5N) and linear speed.

Thanks to their low density, good thermal, mechanical and tribological properties, composites made of carbon fibres and epoxy are particularly adapted to the manufacturing of aircraft brake discs. Several methods have been developed to improve their performance. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the influence of different epoxy/carbon fibers ratio enhance modification on the friction behaviour and to identify the related mechanisms. Nine different hybrid matrix composites were elaborated. These samples were submitted to structural and mechanical characterization, then to friction and wear tests using a pin-on-disc tribometer, at ambient temperature and humidity, constant rotating speed, varying the loading pressure. As the content of carbon fiber increased, the wear rate of the composites trended to increase. Under the friction condition of high applied load, the friction coefficient inclined to decrease while wear rate increased. When slided under a relatively high load of 12 daN, the wear resistance behaved was better as the content of carbon fiber increased. The aim of the present study was to understand the friction mechanisms of these composites, dealing with the effects of varying the carbon fiber concentration within the matrix, not only on the tribological behaviour but also on the superficial mechanical properties.

The mechanical and tribological properties of thermoplastic polyimide based composites loaded with polytetrafl uoroethylene and milled carbon fibers, annealed and functionalized with a KH550 silane-coupling agent were studied. It has been revealed that, compared with neat PI, the composite with annealed carbon fibers and PTFE particles possessed the highest wear resistance. Reinforcing carbon fibers of hundreds micron size increase the elastic modulus by 2 times; while all other physical and mechanical properties remain at the level of unfilled PI.

The Coefficient Of Friction

For the polymeric materials, changing of the temperature causes changes in mechanical and tribological properties of sliding pairs. The goal of the present study was to determine the change in Young's modulus and kinetic friction coefficient depending of the temperature. Three thermoplastic polymers, PA6, PET and PEEK, were tested. These materials cooperated in sliding motion with a C45 construction steel disc. As part of the experiment, the Young's modulus tests (by 3-point bending method) and kinetic friction coefficient studies (using pin-on-disc stand) were carried out. The temperature range of mechanical and tribological tests was determined at T = –50°C±20°C. Comparing the results of mechanical and tribological properties, there is a tendency to decrease the coefficient of friction as the Young's modulus increases while reducing the working temperature.

The aluminium metal matrix composite reinforced with ceramic material of Silicon carbide (SiC) has good mechanical properties. However, aluminium based ceramic composites require improvements in their lubrication and tribological properties. In this study an attempt is made in the development of a new material through powder metallurgy technique by the addition of Graphite, which acts as a solid lubricant. This work investigated the influence of graphite on the wear behaviour of Al 7075/SiC /X wt.% graphite(X=0, 5 and 10) hybrid composite. The investigation reveals the effectiveness of incorporation of graphite in the composite for gaining wear reduction. The Al 7075 (aluminium alloy 7075) reinforced with SiC –graphite were investigated. The composites were fabricated using powder metallurgy route. The microstructures, material combination, wear and friction properties were analysed by scanning electron microscopy, XRD, and pin-on-disc wear tester. The newly developed aluminium composite has significant improvements in tribological properties with a combination of 5% Silicon carbide (SiC) and 5% Graphite. The test reveals that sliding distance of 1000 m and sliding speed of 1.5 m/s with applied load of 5 N result in minimum wear loss of 0.01062g and coefficient of friction as 0.1278.

This paper concerns a comparative study on the tribological properties of Si3N4-10 vol% hBN bearing on GCr15 steel under seawater lubrication and dry friction and fresh-water lubrication by using a pin-on-disc tribometer. The results showed that the lower friction coefficient (around 0.03) and wear rate (10−6 mm/Nm) of SN10/GCr15 tribopair were obtained under seawater condition. This might be caused by the comprehensive effects of hydrodynamics and boundary lubrication of surface films formed after the tribo-chemical reaction. Despite SN10/GCr15 tribopair having 0.07 friction coefficient in the pure-water environment, the wear mechanismsits were dominated by the adhesive wear and abrasive wear under the dry friction conditions, and delamination, plowing, and plastic deformation occured on the worn surface. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis indicated that the products formed after tribo-chemaical reaction were Fe2O3, SiO2, and B2O3 and small amounts of salts from the seawater, and it was these deposits on the worn surface under seawater lubrication conditions that, served to lubricate and protect the wear surface.

AbstractTo enhance the interface bonding of polyimide (PI)/carbon fiber (CF) composites, CFs were functionalized by introducing a polydopamine (PDA) transition layer, whose active groups provide absorption sites for the growth of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets and improve the bonding strength with PI. Uniform and dense MoS2 nanosheets with thicknesses of 30–40 nm on the surface of the PDA@CF were obtained via a subsequent hydrothermal method. As a result, the interface between the CF and the PI matrix becomes more compact with the help of the PDA transition layer and MoS2 nanosheets. This is beneficial in forming PI/CF-MoS2 composites with better thermal stability, higher tensile strength, and enhanced tribological properties. The lubricating and reinforcing effects of the hybrid CF-MoS2 in the PI composite are discussed in detail. The tensile strength of the PI/CF-MoS2 composite increases by 43%, and the friction coefficient and the wear rate reduce by 57% and 77%, respectively, compared to those of the pure PI. These values are higher than those of the PI/CF composites without MoS2 nanosheets. These results indicate that the CF-MoS2 hybrid material can be used as an additive to improve the mechanical and tribological properties of polymers.

The use of vegetable oil-based lubricant as a lubricant in various applications has increased and it is eyed by the industry due to its superior tribological properties, besides possessing the potential to replace petroleum-based lubricants. Palm olein is one of alternative lubricants that could be suitable and attractive as a lubricant to be studied due to its advantages and large production in the country. Thus, in this study, the behavior of palm olein characteristics was investigated by using pin-on-disc experiment, in which a hemispherical pin was loaded against the rotating grooved disc. The experiments via sliding were performed with pin-on-disc tester using pure aluminum as the material for hemispherical pin and SKD11 for disc. The test was implemented by dropping continuous flow of palm olein as lubricating oil on sliding surface at different loads applied, which were 10N, 50N, and 100N. The wear rate of the pin and the friction coefficient were also investigated. Moreover, the surface roughness before and after the experiment was analyzed as well. All the results obtained were compared to hydraulic oil and engine oil-SAE 40. From the analysis, the friction coefficient acquired from lubricated with palm olein was the lowest for both conditions. The wear rate obtained for the three lubricants increased from 10N to 100N load for palm oil, but decreased for hydraulic and engine oil-SAE 40. Meanwhile, the wear rate obtained for lubrication with hydraulic oil showed the lowest value compared to Engine oil-SAE 40 and double fractionated palm olein.

The tribological properties of PA66, PA46, and PTFE-mixed PA46 were investigated. The tests were achieved on a pin-on-disc tribometer. Before tests with different sets of parameters, a running-in-type test (with constant parameters) was performed for all the materials, under lubricated and dry conditions. The tests parameters were variable referring on load, velocity, and temperature. The results are referring on the value of the wear developed during the run-in period and on the variation of friction coefficient with the testing parameters. The results show that the PTFE-mixed PA46 polyamide has better tribological properties than the PA66 and the PA46 polyamide.

In this work, the effect of thermal, mechanical, and tribological properties of the blending system of different contents of short carbon fibers (SCFs) on different-viscosity poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) was reported. The composites were manufactured using injection molding technique. Mechanical and tribological properties were measured by the tensile strength, the flexural strength, the coefficient of friction, and the wear rate. The results showed that the wear resistance and mechanical properties of the PEEK with the lower viscosity appeared on a more outstanding level, and experimental results showed that PEEK composites with added 10 wt% SCFs were optimal about the tribological behaviors and mechanical properties of the composites. Furthermore, based on scanning electron microscope inspections, the situation of the friction and worn surface of the material was explained.
