The martensitic steels X30CrMoN15-1 and 100Cr6 did not show any hydrogen enhanced wear in sliding friction tests against alumina balls in hydrogen gas environment. However, depending on the purity of the environment, unexpected high wear occurred at the alumina ball. The results of a tests series with a broad variation of test parameters are presented.
In this presentation tribological investigations on steels, polymers and coatings in gaseous and liquid hydrogen are shown. For steels the results of show that although martensitic steel may suffer from hydrogen embrittlement, application e.g. in roller bearings is possible. On the other hand, martensitic transformation of austenitic steels may cause problems in the application of these materials. Furthermore, the tribological performance of polymer composites with and without solid lubricant fillers in gaseous and liquid hydrogen was investigated. In particular, PEEK- and PTFE-matrix compounds showed low friction and sufficient low wear under these conditions. Among the solid lubricants, carbon-based materials are appropriate for hydrogen applications. Several variants of DLC and ta-C materials were tested. Beside the results for hydrogen, also a comparison with CH4-environment is shown.
