Tribological properties of ultrahigh-molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) were studied in two different wear modes. Firstly, reciprocating sliding wear studies under non-conformal contact investigated the effects of counterface surface roughness (polished, lapped and ground) of Ti6Al4V on the friction and wear of the polyethylenes. Secondly, two-body abrasive wear studies in conformal contact against different abrasive grit size papers were also carried out to ascertain the wear sensitivity of the polyethylenes under these adverse conditions. Wear mechanisms were studied using optical and scanning electron micrographs. The results of the reciprocating sliding wear studies showed that surface roughness of the counterface influenced friction and wear characteristics although no correlation was found between the coefficient of friction and specific wear rate. XLPE demonstrated wear sensitivity, particularly under severe abrasive wear condition. The results indicated that the performance of the polyethylenes greatly depends upon the tribological system under which it is operating.
Pristine, reduced, and alkylated graphene oxides are applied as lubricating additives in paraffin grease. It has revealed that their crystalline structure governs the tribological properties of grease for steel tribo-pair. The microstructural analyses of grease samples showed that a loose fiber network of soap in the presence of graphene-based additive allows their facile release for efficient lubrication. The surface analyses based on the microscopic and elemental mapping show the development of a graphene-derived protective film on the worn scars, which protected the tribo-surfaces and subsided the wear. The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with the interlamellar distance of 0.35 nm in the (002) plane provided minimum resistance to shear and exhibited maximum reduction in coefficient of friction (COF) for the paraffin grease. The presence of oxygen functionalities in the basal of pristine and alkylated graphene oxide (GO) compromised the interlamellar shearing under tribo-stress; consequently, higher COF than that of rGO.
The accurate EDS microanalysis of light elements such as boron and carbon by spectrum imaging will be demonstrated using a sintered hard ceramic material composed of the three major phases titanium boride (TiB2), titanium carbide (TiC), silicon carbide (SiC) and minor phases, sub-μm in size.
The combination of these three materials leads to improved mechanical and tribological properties. Silicon carbide is a material used for mechanical seals. It has the disadvantage of reduced failsafe running functions, causing increased wear when running dry. The added titanium components (TiC and TiB2) improve the failsafe running functions. This technology has already been transferred to industrial applications.
The wear rates of self-mated alumina couples show that friction as well as wear is largely determined by the above-mentioned hydro-thermal conditions. The presence of water and its amount available in the surrounding system either in liquid or in gaseous form plays a key role for friction and wear behavior and can be beneficial for the tribological profile of steam degradation resistant materials. Hot steam enhances the tribo-chemical formations of oxides and hydroxides on MgO-ZrO2 alumina and antimony impregnated carbon.
Niobium carbide is a ceramic material which can be used with excellent results to replace tungsten carbide with cobalt binder. Furthermore, it might be manufactured by classic ceramic technologies and even colloidal processing. To achieve high toughness and strength, it is necessary to have a perfect mix of hard phase and binder, which is mainly achieved by ball milling. Mechanical and physical properties as well as results on different tribological and application-oriented machining tests are presented. The results have been compared with results obtained with NbC grades with Co and Fe3Al binders as well as with pure binderless hot-pressed NbC and SPS sintered Nb2O5.
