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.
The impact of pressure, sliding velocity and property variation of constituents on the sliding behaviour of a model tribofilm was studied with the method of movable cellular automata (MCA). Whereas a clear pressure dependency of the coefficient of friction (COF) was always observed and could be correlated with the structure formation in terms of varying thickness of a mechanically mixed layer, the impact of the other parameters was either negligible or rather weak. Only if a brittle-to-ductile Transition of the oxide-based tribofilm was assumed, a significant decrease in the COF level was predicted.
Temperature-dependent property changes can be neglected during MCA modelling, unless this transition takes place. For magnetite-based tribofilms, the transition temperature is beyond 800 °C, i.e. a temperature leading to fading effects during braking anyway. Thus, it could be concluded that, except for very severe braking conditions, sliding simulations with the MCA method yield meaningful results without considering temperature-dependent mechanical properties.
The influence of temperature and counterbody material on the tribological properties of a-C:H
coatings deposited on Cronidur 30 steel has been investigated in a lubricated ball on disk
contact situation with alpha-alumina and silicon nitride as counterbodies. The results show, that the wear volumes of the systems increase exponentially with increasing temperature, for alpha-alumina more than for silicon nitride. Two different wear mechanisms seem to have a
major influence: First, the abrasive action due to materials hardness and second, the tribo-oxidation when silicon nitride is counter material.
The process window and range of functional properties of NbC is wide, because micro-hardness, hot hardness, sliding wear resistance, elastic modulus and toughness can be tailored by the C/Nb ratio, because Nb4C3, 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, and by the type of binder. Further improvements enable the addition of secondary carbides. Supporting results from literature and 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. NbC can be synthesized by carbothermal conversion of Nb2O5 or be metallurgically grown in melts and leached out as coarse NbC cubes. NbC provides comparably lower 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.
Hydraulic oils are well established formulations developed around the pump test. Requirements for energy efficiency and also environmentally acceptable properties increased the demand for development. In the same time, system pressure and the used of servo-hydraulic vanes increased bringing specific formulations and materials to their limit.
The vane pump is a key component in hydraulic systems and many other tribosystems in hydraulic circuits operate under different tribological operating conditions. The concept for ranking of hydraulic oils consists in using existing SRV-based ASTM test methods for evaluation of friction, wear and extreme pressure properties: D6425, friction and wear of oils (homologue to DIN 51834-2), D7421, extreme pressure properties of oils and D7755, wear volumes of ball and disks (homologue to DIN 51834-3. The tribological properties are assessed under the regime of mixed/boundary lubrication The SRV-based concept of tribological profile generates the wear volumes on two triboelements (specimen) and the extreme pressure properties as well as the evolution of friction in the wear and extreme pressure load step test. Thus, the benchmark and validation of hydraulic oils bear on a wider range of tribological properties. Round robin test results using the aforementioned testing concept will be shown. Another outcome is tribological set limits for inclusion in hydrau¬lic oil speci¬fications.
New interpretation approaches for seizure load tests on the translatory oscillation tribometer (SRV)
(2016)
When looking in detail at analyses of the tribological load-carrying capacity of high-performance lubricants, it becomes apparent that the stop of the machine of an exclusive evaluation of the development of the coefficient of friction cannot provide any sufficient criteria for determining the occurrence of adhesive failure. This is due on the one hand to the increasing complexity of lubricant formulae and sophisticated additive packages, and on the other hand to the increasing frictional power capacity of modern drive and control concepts in the design of tribometers. For this reason, it is urgently needed to examine the adhesive processes and their detection in more detail with the help of appropriate tribological values and criteria. The evolution of the friction can be coupled with the stroke, contact resistant and/or noise emission. Besides from new criteria for adhesive failure, which were compiled by the work group for the relevant ISO, DIN and ASTM standards, this contribution discusses the inclusion of additional parameters. Among other things, it provides guidance on what evidence the continuous recording of the original coefficient of friction and position signals, the electrical contact resistance, temperature, noise emission, frictional power input of the machine and further derived parameters help to identify adhesive failures or events.
In the state-of-the-art technology, the impact of additives on friction and wear is evaluated in recipes with fixed concentrations. For the development of formulations it is desirable to determine the lowest effective concentration or the concentration at which failure was initiated or excessive wear began. Through a new development of the SRV® machine it is now possible to change the lubricant composition of a test specimen in a reproducible manner, in sub-pro Mill steps during the SRV® testing. This technology is used in the present article to define the optimum additive concentration with regard to wear and friction in a system of base oil and additive. Exemplary selected base oil and additive variants are tested here. The load parameters during testing are selected in such a way that they correspond to later application. The new data acquisition capabilities enable new possibilities for optimizing lubricant formulations in practice-oriented model-tribometer tests. “Cliff“ testing aims to identify in engine or gear tests the induction time or off-set point (“cliff“) after which wear and friction increased of failure occurred. Explanations for friction and wear increased as well as failures, which occurred during engine tests, can be derived from SRV® testing of oil samples taken or collected at different engine test times and correlating these with their friction, wear and EP data in respect to depleting curves for specific additives or other oil properties. A “cause-root” analysis is done by plotting SRV® data versus functional properties. The collected oil samples must be fully SRV® tested and chemically analyzed.
Substituting tungsten carbide (WC) as cutting tools and for wear protection by niobium carbide (NbC)
(2016)
As a refractory carbide, niobium carbide (NbC) is today still a forgotten carbide with hidden properties, such as wear resistance, thus qualifying NbC for the group of tribological materials with enhanced wear resistance. Several phases, like Nb₄C₃, 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, which enable the tailoring of properties and offers a much wider process window than known from WC. The type binder (Co, Ni, NiMo) and its concentration as well as the sintering process (SPS, liquid phase sintering) determine the box “hardness-toughness”, which will be illuminated based on more than 100 grades.
The impact of these tailored properties on sliding wear (T= 22/400°C; v= 0,1-10 m/s) and cutting performance will be illuminated by tribological and machining results. Cutting test results under emulsion and coolant-free operation of cobalt and Fe3Al bonded, straight NbC versus WC based inserts against different alloys (C60, 100Cr6, 42CrMo4, X90CrMoV18, 300WA, GG35) will be highlighted.
Besides carbon, metal sulphides are used in every standard brake pad formulation as friction stabilisers. In order to investigate their impact, various powder mixtures were tribologically stressed in a pin-on-disc device in order to produce and test artificial third bodies. containing the three main components of a real friction film, namely magnetite, graphite and a metal sulphide of interest. Since the sliding behaviour is influenced by the relative humidity the powder mixtures are tested at low, medium and high moisture levels. The tests revealed that the presence of graphite dominates the friction behaviour as well as the humidity sensitivity.
The powders were prepared by either manual mixing or high energy ball-milling. Interestingly, all ball-milled blends provided coefficients of friction within the desired range for braking, which was attributed to the effect of zirconia particles from wear debris of the milling balls. The zirconia particles prevent the formation of solid lubricant films on the surfaces and support a homogeneous mixture of all constituents of the powder. Optimum brake performance is gained by an optimum combination of solid lubricants and abrasives.
To investigate the influence of metal sulphides in brake pads, powder mixtures with up to three components were tribologically stressed in a pin-on-disc device under different levels of relative humidity. The tests revealed that each metal sulphide causes significant differences in resulting coefficients of friction as well in their sensitivity to humidity, so that only one solid lubricant cannot stabilise the friction behaviour during braking in different environments.
