The tribological behaviour under dry sliding conditions of Magneli phase Ti4O7 and e-phase Ti2Cr2O7 with α-alumina as a sliding partner has been characterised at room temperature by oscillating sliding. The mechanical properties as well as Vickers hardness measurements do not reveal big differences between the materials, and 4-point bending strengths are around 200 MPa for both materials. Although the friction coefficients are in the medium range of 0.6 and do not differ much between the materials, the wear behaviour is very different. At room temperature, the wear coefficient of Ti2O7 is strongly dependent on relative humidity, and wear is highest under dry conditions when relative humidity is low as it is typically found for many ceramic materials. Ti2Cr2O7 shows remarkably different wear behaviour with the lowest wear in dry conditions. The measured coefficients of wear at low relative humidity of 4% are more than 2 orders of magnitude lower than those for Ti2O7.

The importance of lubricants in virtually all fields of the engineering industry is reflected by an increasing scientific research of the basic principles. Energy efficiency and material saving are just two core objectives of the employment of high-tech lubricants. The encyclopedia presents a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge in the realm of lubrication. All the aspects of fundamental data, underlying concepts and use cases, as well as theoretical research and last but not least terminology are covered in hundreds of essays and definitions, authored by experts in their respective fields, from industry and academic institutes.
Self-mated magnesia stabilized zirconia (Mg-PSZ) ceramic sliding couples have been investigated at 100 N load (P0max= 1324 MPa) in oscillating sliding conditions in different humidity conditions in air and in hot steam. Temperatures have been varied up to 400 °C and pressures up to 6 bars. The results show that the wear behavior of MgO-ZrO2 under high Hertzian contact pressures is strongly dependent on temperature and is similar for both dry oscillating and oscillating in hot steam. However, although the evolution in wear rates on temperature is similar and the wear rates of MgO-ZrO2 plunged above 300 °C in hot steam and air by nearly three orders of magnitude, SEM micrographs revealed in hot steam at 400 °C smooth wear tracks. In contrast, hot steam enhanced the tribochemistry of self-mated alumina couples and reduced wear rates. Hot steam decreased the coefficients of friction of MgO-ZrO2 with increasing temperature, but not the wear rates.
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.
The historical development on the discoveries of lubrication regimes for lubricated sliding contacts has been reviewed from the very beginning. It was found that the functional relationship between the coefficient of friction and the product of sliding speed and viscosity divided by the normal load well known as the Stribeck curve has been experimentally explored much earlier by Adolf Martens in 1888 long before Richard Stribeck did his pioneering measurements in 1902. However, basic work in this field of experimental hydrodynamics was done and results were published even earlier than that back in 1854 by Gustave A. Hirn, in 1879 by Robert H. Thurston and in 1883 by Beauchamp Tower.
Der Einfluss des E-Moduls und des Grundöls auf das Wälzverhalten von DLC- und Diamantbeschichtungen

Thermally sprayed TiO2-x coatings under mixed lubrication and unlubricated sliding conditions
(2004)
The slip-rolling resistances of hard and stiff thin films under high Hertzian contact pressures can be improved by optimizing the 'coating/substrate systems'. It is known from former investigations that the so-called 'egg-shell' effect is no general hindrance for high slip-rolling resistance of thin hard coatings. The coating stability depends more on specific deposition process and coating/substrate interface design. In this article it is experimentally shown, that pure amorphous carbon thin films with hardness between 15 and 63 GPa can be slip-rolling resistant several million load cycles under a maximum Hertzian contact pressures of up to 3.0 GPa. Whereas all coatings were stable up to 10 million load cycles in paraffin oil at room temperature, reduced coating lifetime was found in SAE 0W-30 engine oil at 120°C. It was shown how the coating hardness and the initial coating surface roughness influence the running-in process and coating lifetime. No clear correlation between coating hardness and coating lifetime could be observed, but friction coefficients seem to be reduced with higher coating hardness. Very low friction down to ~0.03 in unmodified engine oils was found for the hardest ta-C film.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Die Wälzbeständigkeit von harten und steifen Dünnschichten unter hohen Hertzschen Kontaktpressungen kann durch die Optimierung des 'Beschichtung/Substrat Systems' deutlich verbessert werden. Aus vorangegangenen Untersuchungen ist bekannt, dass der so genannte 'Eierschaleneffekt' kein generelles Hindernis für eine hohe Wälzbeständigkeit für harte Dünnschichten darstellen muss. Die Stabilität der Beschichtungen hängt vielmehr von dem spezifischen Prozessparametern und dem Schicht/Substrat Grenzflächendesign ab. In diesem Artikel wird experimentell nachgewiesen, dass reine amorphe Kohlenstoffdünnschichten mit Härtewerten zwischen 15 und 63 GPa für mehrere Millionen Lastzyklen unter maximalen Hertzschen Kontaktpressungen bis 3.0 GPa überrollbeständig sein können. Während alle Beschichtungen bis 10 Millionen Lastzyklen in Paraffinöl bei Raumtemperatur keine Defekte aufweisen wurde unter Verwendung eines SAE 0W-30 Motorenöls bei 120°C eine Verringerung der Überrollbeständigkeit nachgewiesen. Es wurde nachgewiesen, wie die Schichthärte und ursprüngliche Oberflächenrauheit der Beschichtung den Einlaufprozess und die Lebensdauer beeinflussen. Es konnte keine offensichtliche Korrelation zwischen Schichthärte und Lebensdauer festgestellt werden, allerdings wurde eine scheinbare Reduktion des Reibwertes mit steigender Schichthärte beobachtet werden. Dabei zeigte die härteste ta-C Schicht unter Verwendung des Motorenöls sehr geringe Reibwerte mit ~0.03.
The inevitable increase of torque or load, because of lightweight approaches, pushes the oil-film temperatures on the teeth flanks of gears above 200°C, and requires alloys with higher strength and toughness properties. Furthermore, the real temperature on surfaces during the physical vapor deposition (PVD) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of thin films can exceed the annealing temperature of the state-of-the-art bearing and gear materials, such as AISI 52100 (1.3505), 16MnCr5 (1.7131), 21NiCrMo (1.6523), and 30CrMoV9 (1.7707). Such trends call for slip-rolling-resistant, alternative alloys suited for contact stresses above P0max of >2.2 GPa. The tribological profile under slip-rolling conditions at 120°C in a factory engine oil (SAE 0W-30, ACEA A3/B4, ν120°C = 5.33 mPa, HTHS150°C = 3.0 mPa) until 10 × 106 load cycles between P0max of 2.25 GPa to 3.92 GPa of uncoated 100Cr6 (1.3505, PBQ), 102Cr6 (1.2067), Cronidur 30 (1.4108, DESU), 45SiCrMo6 (1.8062, CVEM), 40SiNiCrMo1 [vacuum arc remelting (VAR)], CSS-42L (AMS 5932, vacuum induction melting (VIM)-VAR, and carburized), 36NiCrMoV1-5-7 (CAB), ASP2012 (ASP), and 20MnCr5 (1.7131, carburized) was established in twin disk machines (Amsler-type and 2Disk). The present benchmark illuminates the tribological impact of uncoated bearing steels in comparison to uncoated alternative steel alloys on friction, wear and slip-rolling resistance, as well as load carrying capacity. Iron-based steel alloyed with silicon or molybdenum reduces alloying costs and avoids thermo-chemical treatments. This benchmark suggests considering an extension to fracture toughness from hardness and strength as a relevant property for slip-rolling alloys. If slip-rolling resistant, the wear rates of the metallurgical different steels were more or less within one order of magnitude, but the influence of increasing contact stresses on the tribological profile differed significantly.
Downsizing (power-to-weight ratio) and higher speeds lead to a rise in Hertzian contact pressures in combination with an increase in surface or oil temperatures. Under such conditions, commonly used bearing steels, such as 100Cr6, reach their limits, creating a demand for alternative slip-rolling resistant steel alloys. The present work therefore compares the slip-rolling performance of various steel types with Maraging- and PM-type steel alloys such as e.g. CSS-42L™, ASP2012, BIMAX42+, in the Hertzian contact pressure range up to P0max of 4 GPa. Through-hardened 100Cr6H (AISI 52100), case-hardened 20MnCr5 (AISI 5120H) and nitrogen alloyed Croni-dur30 (AMS 5898) still compete in terms of slip-rolling and wear resistance and load carrying capacity, whereas Maraging- and PM-type steel alloys offer superior strength and toughness properties.
Niobium carbide for wear protection - tailoring its properties by processing and stoichiometry
(2016)
Niobium carbide is a hardly explored carbide but its functional profile shows a high potential for wear protection and tribological applications, which are currently dominated by tungsten carbide. Surprisingly little information is available on niobium carbide (NbC). Niobium carbide can be either synthesized by carbothermal conversion of Nb2O5 or be metallurgically grown and leached out. Furthermore, NbC hardmetal grades can be bonded by all known metallic binders and processed and sintered in exactly the same way as WC-based hardmetals. Niobium is today largely available. NbC can be efficiently produced, provides comparably low friction in many relevant tribo-contacts and displays low wear. NbC and Nb2O5 have so far no REACH classification related to human toxicology and are not listed as substances of very high concern contrary to WO3 and Co3O4. This contribution demonstrates the key characteristics of NbC and discusses its sustainability and reliable value chain.
Substitution of tungsten carbide by niobium carbide as cutting materials and for wear protection
(2016)
Several phases, like Nb₄ C₃ , Nb₆C₅ and other short and long range ordered phases occur in the region of homogeneity of NbCₓ (0.75 ≤ x ≤ 1.0) in the binary phase diagram. Properties, like micro-hardness, hot hardness, sliding wear resistance, elastic modulus and toughness can be tailored by the C/Nb ratio, the addition of secondary carbides and the type of binder. Supporting results from different grades with varying C/Nb ratio or binder types were illuminated. Thus, the NbC system offers to producers a wider process window, than WC. The impact of these tailored properties on sliding wear and cutting performance was illuminated by tribological and machining results.

Niobium is today largely available. The initial NbC grade was substoichiometric, SPS sintered and cobalt bonded (NbC0.88-12Co SPS). The NiMo-bonded stoichiometric NbC1.0 grades enable the subtituion of cobalt by nickel, SPS by conventional sintering and NbC0.88 by NbC1.0 in view of functional properties. Nickel bonded NbC grades have improved toughnesses versus cobalt bonded NbC grades, but lose hardness. NiMo and NiMo2C bonded NbC1.0 grades compensated the loss in hardness while keeping the toughness.
The tribological profile of alumina (99.7%) mated against binder-less niobium carbide (NbC) rotating disks were determined unidirectional sliding tests (0.17.5 m/s; 22 °C and 400 °C) as well as in oscillation tests (f=20 Hz, Δx=0.2 mm, 2/50/98% rel. humidity, n=105/106 cycles) under un-lubricated (dry) conditions. In addition, the microstructure and mechanical properties of NbC were determined as well. The reason for testing hot-pressed NbC was to avoid side effects generated by sintering additives and/or second phases. The tribological data obtained were benchmarked with different ceramics, cermets and thermally sprayed coatings. NbC exhibited low wear rates under dry sliding associated with high load carrying capacity. The tribological profile established revealed a strong position of NbC under tribological considerations and for closed tribo-systems against traditional references, such as WC, Cr3C2, (Ti,Mo)(C,N), etc.

Das triboiogische Profil von binderlosem NbC und mit 8% bzw. mit 12% Cobalt oder 12% FeaAl 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 10'6mm31 / *N* m, während diejenigen der cobaltgebundenen NbCs mit ansteigender Gleitgeschwindigkeit von 2-4 10‘6 mm3/Nm bei 0,1 m/s auf 5-7 10"7 mm3/Nm bei 10 m/s abnahmen. Die Verschleißkoeffizienten bei 400°C lagen für die NbCs generell unterhalb von 10‘6 mm3/Nm. Das triboiogische 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.
The tribological profile of rotating disks made in binder-less niobium Carbide (hot-pressed NbC) and cobalt-bonded NbCs (NbC-8Co and NbC-12Co) mated against alumina (99.7%) were determined under unidirectional sliding tests (0.1 m/s to 8.0 m/s; 22°C and 400°C) as well as in oscillation tests (f= 20 Hz, Ax= 0.2 mm, 2/50/98% rel. humidity, n= 105/l 06 cycles) under unlubricated (dry) conditions. In addition, the microstructure and mechanical properties of HPNbCl and NbC bonded with 8 vol.-% and 12 vol.-% cobalt were determined as well. The tribological data obtained were benchmarked with different ceramics, cermets, hard metals and thermally sprayed coatings, where the NbCs bonded with 8% and 12% Co presented above 7 m/s the lowest wear rates so far in such a bench mark. HP-NbCl, NbC-8Co and NbC-12Co exhibited low wear rates under dry sliding associated with PV high load carrying capacities. The tribological profile established revealed a strong position of NbC bearing materials under tribological considerations and for closed tribo-systems against traditional references.
The tribological and mechanical properties of niobium carbides (NbC) bonded with cobalt of Fe3Al
(2014)
The tribological and mechanical properties of niobium carbide bonded with 8 vol.-% (NbC-8Co), 12 vol.-% of cobalt (NbC-12Co) or 12 vol.-% of Fe3Al (NbC-12Fe3Al) are presented. Rotating discs made of metal-bonded niobium carbide were mated against alumina (99.7%) under unlubricated (dry) unidirectional sliding tests (0.1 m/s to 12.0 m/s; 22 °C and 400 C) as well as in oscillation tests (f=20 Hz, Δx=0.2 mm, 2/50/98% rel. humidity, n=105/106 cycles). Microstructure and phase compositions were determined as well. The tribological data obtained were benchmarked with different ceramics, cermets, hard metals and thermally sprayed coatings, where NbC bonded with 8% and 12% Co presented above 7 m/s the lowest wear rates so far in such a benchmark. Binderless NbC (HP-NbC1) and the metal-bonded NbCs exhibited low wear rates under dry sliding associated with P·V high load carrying capacities. NbC-based hard metal bonded with 12 vol.-% of Fe3Al resulted in a higher hardness level than for 12 vol.-% cobalt. The tribological profile established revealed a strong position of NbC-bearing materials under tribological considerations and for closed tribosystems against established reference tribo-couples.
The tribological behavior under dry sliding of a Fe3Al-NbC composite prepared by pyro-metallurgical synthesis is compared to different SPS sintered NbC-based hardmetals bonded by cobalt or Fe3AI. 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. No grain pull-outs or fragmentations of the NbC grains were seen in the wear tracks of the Fe3Al-NbC composite, as a metallurgical interphase was formed between matrix and NbC grains. The physical prope1ties of melt grown NbC match those known from powder metallurgically sintered NbC using powders converted from Nb205.
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.
