In the present study, tribofilms consisting mainly of a solid lubricant, namely graphite nanoparticles, are considered. Systems providing such tribofilms are candidates for anti-friction applications. Since sliding action always leads to mixing of the materials at both sides of the tribological interface, it was of major interest to study the impact of different amounts of a hard constituent, SiC in the considered case, within the soft matrix systematically. Furthermore, the impact of normal pressure was considered. A mechanically mixed layer was observed for the whole range of normal pressures and SiC volume fractions. The calculated coefficient of friction decreased significantly with increasing thickness of this layer but was only marginally affected by SiC volume fraction, which is good news for anti-friction applications.

A1 - Österle, Werner T1 - Multiscale modeling of low friction sliding behavior of a hybrid epoxy-matrix nanocomposite T2 - Procedia Structural Integrity N2 - The method of movable cellular automata (MCA) and method of molecular dynamics (MD) were applied to simulate the friction and sliding behavior of model-tribofilms formed from a nanocomposite consisting of an epoxy matrix, 10 vol % micron-sized carbon fibers and 5 vol. % silica nanoparticles. Whereas MCA considered the tribofilm as an agglomerate of silica nanoparticles released from the composite and mixed with graphite particles, MD simulated the sliding behavior of an amorphous silica layer supported by stiff crystalline substrates on both sides. The MCA model provided reasonable quantitative results which corroborate experimental findings at moderate stressing conditions. The very low coefficient of friction observed experimentally under severe stressing conditions was not explained by this model. This could be attributed to the lack of mechanical data at the high temperature expected under these conditions. Although based on a simpler assumption of the tribofilm composition, MD-modelling could be easily applied to the expected high flash temperature and was able to predict friction reduction and smooth sliding under these conditions.

A1 - Österle, Werner T1 - Sliding simulation of automotive brake primary contact with variable amounts of copper and graphite nanoparticles T2 - ADVANCED MATERIALS WITH HIERARCHICAL STRUCTURE FOR NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND RELIABLE STRUCTURES 2016 N2 - Copper is one of the most important components in brake pads and its amount can reach up to 14%. In spite of a number of positive features copper usage in brake pad formulations has recently become the subject of considerable discussions, primarily due to concerns about potential risks related to environmental impacts of copper particles. So, for developing new pad formulations with possible replacements of copper content, it is very important to understand the functionality of copper additions to brake friction materials. In the paper theoretical investigation of the role of copper as a pad ingredient was carried out on the basis of modelling by the method of movable cellular automata (MCA). In the study the concentration of copper particles in a Fe3O4-matrix was varied. The sliding simulations were performed while assuming material properties at 500 degrees C in order to assess the beneficial role of copper during severe braking conditions corresponding to fading cycles during dynamometer testing.

Samples with an amorphous layer of pure nickel and nickel-phosphorus compound were considered. The analysis showed that forces of shear resistance in the sample with an amorphous layer containing phosphorus in about 3 times less than the sample with a layer of pure nickel. Thus, it was shown that nickel-phosphorous coating in amorphous-like state may exhibit low friction properties, and, therefore, serve as the solid lubricant material.
