The dry sliding wear resistance (0. 1-7 /10 m/s) of the present Fe3Al-NbC with -60 % NbC was close to those known ofNbC-based hard metals.

T1 - The background for the use of hardmetals and MMCs based on niobium carbide (NbC) as cutting tools and for wear resistant tribosystems N2 - In this present study, the mechanical properties (strength, hardness, moduli) and the dry sliding properties of stoichiometric and sub-stoichiometric NbC were compared. Microhardness and elastic properties of NbC depend from the C/Nb ratio, because the binary phase diagram Nb-C shows a region of homogeneity of NbCx of 0,72≤ x ≤1.0. At RT, hard metals of stoichiometric NbC have an elastic modulus E of ~440 GPa, those of substochiometric NbC0,88 an E of 405 GPa. The hot hardness of sub-stoichiometric NbC is above 600°C higher than of WC. The dry sliding wear resistance (0,1-7/10 m/s) of the present Fe3Al-NbC0,94 with ~61 vol.-% NbC as hard phase was close to those known of NbC-based hard metals. No grain pull-outs or fragmentations of the NbC grains were seen in the wear tracks of the Fe3Al-NbC composite (MMC), as a metallurgical interphase was formed between matrix and NbC grains. Stoichiometric and sub-stoichiometric niobium carbides have at RT and 400°C under dry sliding a prone intrinsic wear resistance more or less independent from sliding speed, either as hardmetal or as hard phase in metal matrix composite, associated with an exceptional high load carrying capacity.

Microcracks accelerate material failure and wear during this phase of heightened friction. With this in mind, the ultimate goal of this current work is to transfer the running-in phase into the final step of the mechanical finishing process through the targeted pre-conditioning of novel, high toughness steel bearings without thermo-chemical treatments and compare these to conventional, case-hardened steels. This pre-conditioning involved the targeted implementation of two specific lubricant packages, the first with CaCO3 as the active ingredient and the second with MoDTC as the active ingredient, to generate chemically reactive tribolayers (tribofilms) on twin disk testing rigs. Pre-conditioning was carried out up to 104 load cycles (approximately 25 min). The films generated in pre-conditioning were analyzed by SEM-EDX with Element-Mapping, Raman spectroscopy, and XPS to elucidate their molecular composition and concentration on the sample surfaces. The combination of these methods of analysis gave a clear indication that 104 cycles were sufficient to generate stable chemical tribofilms. CaO and CaCO3 were the main components of the tribofilm from the first lubricant package, while MoS2, MoO2 and MoO3 were the main components from the second lubricant package. Tribofilm-protected samples were then subjected to slip-rolling endurance testing (T=+120 °C, 10,000,000 cycles, approximately 19 days in a factory fill engine oil) to determine any changes in friction behavior or wear performance. Some significant reductions in coefficients of friction at the end of endurance testing were observed, though in certain cases, no definitive improvement was observed. In contrast, very strong reductions in wear were observed across the entire spectrum of materials and testing loads. In some cases, sample surface wear reduction from pre-conditioning via tribofilms reached over 90%. The observed improvements to friction behavior and wear performance are indicative of a technically simple, cost- and energy-efficient pre-conditioning method that may prove to be competitive with existing thermochemical treatments for steel alloys.

T1 - Niobcarbid - Ein vergessener Hartstoff für den Verschleißschutz in offenen und geschlossenen Tribosystemen N2 - Das tribologische Profil von binderlosem NbC und mit 8% bzw. mit 12% Cobalt oder 12% Fe3Al gebundenem NbC wird unter unidirektionaler Gleitreibung (v= 0,1-10 m/s, T= 22°C und 400°C) und unter oszillierender Gleitreibung vergleichend gegenüber Ingenieurkeramiken und Hartmetallen dargestellt. Zusätzlich werden die 4-Punkt-Biegebruchfestigkeit, elastische Eigenschaften (E,G) bis 1.000�C die lastabhängige Mikrohärte sowie die Phasenzusammensetzung und Gefügestrukturen vorgestellt. Die Verschleißkoeffizienten des binderlosen NbC lagen bei T unterhalb von 10-6 mm³/N?m, während diejenigen der cobaltgebundenen NbCs mit ansteigender Gleitgeschwindigkeit von 2-4 10-6 mm³/N?m bei 0,1 m/s auf 5-7 10-7 mm³/N.m bei 10 m/s abnahmen. Die Verschleißkoeffizienten bei 400°C lagen für die NbCs generell unterhalb von 10-6 mm³/N.m. Das tribologische Lasttragevermögen im Trockenlauf, ausgedrückt als PV-Wert, nimmt mit ansteigender Gleitgeschwindigkeit auf 100 W/mm² zu. Bedingt durch die geringe Löslichkeit von NbC in Legierungen offenbarten erste Zerspanversuche mit verschiedenen Stählen eine gegenüber WC-basierten Schneidstoffen signifikant angehobene Zerspanungsvolumina. Somit offenbart NbC in offenen und geschlossenen Tribosystemen Anwendungspotentiale.
