T1 - Evolution in microstructure and compression behaviour of a metallic sintered friction material after braking JF - Wear N2 - Due to the complexity of friction materials, the characterization of the tribological properties is prioritised over the bulk material properties even though the tribology is expected to be influenced by the material behaviour. The extent of this relationship is still unknown and further knowledge is required to account for the load history and evolution of the bulk properties. With this view, the compression behaviour and microstructure of a semi-metallic friction material with reduced formulation were investigated before and after a braking program. The thermal loading was monitored with inserted thermocouples. Uniaxial compression tests coupled with Digital Image Correlation (DIC) show significant changes in the worn material, which develops a compression behaviour similar to that of a tri-layered material. The microstructural analysis indicates microcracking of the metallic matrix and carbon diffusion in the Fe-phase. The thermal loading was found to be the key parameter controlling both the friction behaviour and evolution of the material properties. The expected effects of material evolution on the contact uniformity, durability and tribology are discussed.

T1 - Characterization of precipitation in 2000 series aluminium alloys using neutron diffraction, sans and sem methods JF - Romanian Reports in Physics N2 - Combination of high-resolution time-of-flight (TOF) Neutron diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and small angle neutron scattering (SANS) have been used to study hardening precipitation in 2014Al and 2124Al alloys. Neutron diffraction experiment revealed presence of tetragonal CuAl2 Phase (θ/θ´ precipitates) in 2014Al alloy and orthorhombic CuMgAl2 Phase (S-precipitates) in 2124Al alloy. SEM image analysis revealed that the θ/θ´-precipitates have platelet morphology while the S-precipitates exhibit rod-like shapes. From SANS data analysis the characteristic dimensions of precipitate particles and their polydisperse distributions were estimated.

Both alloys are single phase fcc prior to oxidation and were simultaneously exposed to different oxygen containing atmospheres at 700° C and 800° C for durations up to 288 h. Cr20Mn20Fe20Co20Ni20 showed poor oxidation resistance at high temperatures due to its high amount of manganese leading to the formation of non-protective Mn-oxide scales. In contrast, a relatively homogeneous and protective chromia layer was found to form on CrCoNi at 700° C and 800° C after each exposure time. Mass change-, SEM- and XRD analysis of the oxide layers were performed in the present study and provide a better understanding of the oxidation mechanisms as well as the impact of the alloy composition on oxidation behavior.
