“…Similarly, Kim et al [74] and Yamamoto et al [76] also indicated that a very thin (<10 nm) silicon hydroxide offered a beneficial lubricating effect, thus contributing to a low friction and good wear resistance for CrSiN coatings in water. Besides the incorporations of Si and C, the influence of B incorporation on the tribological properties of CrBN coatings in water was reported in [9]. As shown in Figure 5b, the results showed that the wear resistance of CrN coatings was enhanced by B incorporation, and the CrBN(22.19 at % B)/SiC tribopair displayed the lowest friction coefficient (0.15) and coating wear rate (1.48 × 10 −7 mm 3 /Nm).…”

“…Similarly, after a low incorporation of B (≤25.1 at%), the friction coefficient and wear rate of CrCN/SiC tribopair was improved, but a higher B incorporation (27.2 at%) deteriorated the tribological properties of CrBCN/SiC tribopair under water lubrication. It can be concluded that the incorporation of C, Si and B is able to decrease the friction coefficient Mean steady friction coefficient μ B content (at%) [9] (b) Based on the advantages of C, Si and B incorporations stated above, Zhou's group [10][11][12] further studied the tribological properties of quaternary CrSiCN and CrBCN coatings under water lubrication as listed in Table 8. It is demonstrated that the CrSiCN(2.05 at % Si)/SiC tribopair exhibited a lower friction coefficient and wear rate than CrCN/SiC tribopair [10], while the CrSiCN(2.67 at % Si)/SiC tribopair presented the lowest friction coefficient and wear rate [11].…”

“…Subsequently, their tribological properties in ambient, vacuum and aqueous environments have been investigated. At the request of environment protection, the water-lubricated behaviors of nano-composite coatings, such as DLC(a-C), a-CNx and TiN-based and CrN-based coatings, especially CrBN [9], CrSiCN [10,11] and CrBCN [12], in the last two years have become a research hotspot. This tendency has been well demonstrated by an increasing number of relevant publication papers, as well as an increasing citation number per year ( Figure 1).…”

Abstract:The tribological properties, under water-lubricated conditions, of three major nano-composite coatings, i.e., diamond-like carbon (DLC or a-C), amorphous carbon nitride (a-CN x ) and transition metallic nitride-based (TiN-based, CrN-based), coatings are reviewed. The influences of microstructure (composition and architecture) and test conditions (counterparts and friction parameters) on their friction and wear behavior under water lubrication are systematically elucidated. In general, DLC and a-CN x coatings exhibit superior tribological performance under water lubrication due to the formation of the hydrophilic group and the lubricating layer with low shear strength, respectively. In contrast, TiN-based and CrN-based coatings present relatively poor tribological performance in pure water, but are expected to present promising applications in sea water because of their good corrosion resistance. No matter what kind of coatings, an appropriate selection of counterpart materials would make their water-lubricated tribological properties more prominent. Currently, Si-based materials are deemed as beneficial counterparts under water lubrication due to the formation of silica gel originating from the hydration of Si. In the meantime, the tribological properties of nano-composite coatings in water could be enhanced at appropriate normal load and sliding velocity due to mixed or hydrodynamic lubrication. At the end of this article, the main research that is now being developed concerning the development of nano-composite coatings under water lubrication is described synthetically.

Water Pool Behaviors of Water Lubricating for Glass/Steel Point Contact

Abstract:The behavior of pools of water for lubrication under a point of contact between a glass disk and a steel ball is studied here, employing a home-built apparatus. A deformed water pool is found to form around the contact region under different rolling speeds. To investigate the effect of rolling speed on the water pool, two parameters (advancing angle and receding angle) are introduced to describe the shape of the water pool. Two distinct glass surfaces, namely a smooth surface and a microgrooved surface, are observed. In the case of the smooth surface, the advancing/receding angle of the water pool significantly decreases with increasing rolling speed before the rolling speed reaches a critical value (80 mm/s). At speeds higher than 80 mm/s, the water pool is in a stable state and the advancing/receding angle remains steady. In the case of the microgrooved surface, the influence of the microgroove on water lubricating flow disappears when the rolling speed reaches a critical value (1030 mm/s).

Recent Progress on Wear‐Resistant Materials: Designs, Properties, and Applications

There has been tremendous interest in the development of different innovative wear‐resistant materials, which can help to reduce energy losses resulted from friction and wear by ≈40% over the next 10–15 years. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the recent progress on designs, properties, and applications of wear‐resistant materials, starting with an introduction of various advanced technologies for the fabrication of wear‐resistant materials and anti‐wear structures with their wear mechanisms. Typical strategies of surface engineering and matrix strengthening for the development of wear‐resistant materials are then analyzed, focusing on the development of coatings, surface texturing, surface hardening, architecture, and the exploration of matrix compositions, microstructures, and reinforcements. Afterward, the relationship between the wear resistance of a material and its intrinsic properties including hardness, stiffness, strength, and cyclic plasticity is discussed with underlying mechanisms, such as the lattice distortion effect, bonding strength effect, grain size effect, precipitation effect, grain boundary effect, dislocation or twinning effect. A wide range of fundamental applications, specifically in aerospace components, automobile parts, wind turbines, micro‐/nano‐electromechanical systems, atomic force microscopes, and biomedical devices are highlighted. This review is concluded with prospects on challenges and future directions in this critical field.
