Abstract
The MAX phase ceramics are one of the most promising solid lubricants for high-temperature (HT) conditions. Herein, two new quaternary MAXs with regulatable transition-metal constituents (Cr1Ti0.75Mo0.75V0.5AlC2 and Cr1.25Ti0.75Mo0.75V0.25AlC2) are synthesized based on an high-entropy (HE) analogue. Their tribological properties against the Si3N4 tribocouple in a wide temperature up to 800 ºC in the air are systematically studied, the impacts of the Cr and V contents on lubricity and anti-wear performance of the Cr-Ti-Mo-V MAXs are illuminated as well. At an extreme operating temperature of 800 °C, Cr1.25Ti0.75Mo0.75V0.25AlC2 presents excellent self-lubrication performance with a mean COF of 0.20 and a mean wear rate as low as 3.6 × 10−7 mm3 N−1 m−1.
期刊介绍:
Tribology is the science of rubbing surfaces and contributes to every facet of our everyday life, from live cell friction to engine lubrication and seismology. As such tribology is truly multidisciplinary and this extraordinary breadth of scientific interest is reflected in the scope of Tribology International.
Tribology International seeks to publish original research papers of the highest scientific quality to provide an archival resource for scientists from all backgrounds. Written contributions are invited reporting experimental and modelling studies both in established areas of tribology and emerging fields. Scientific topics include the physics or chemistry of tribo-surfaces, bio-tribology, surface engineering and materials, contact mechanics, nano-tribology, lubricants and hydrodynamic lubrication.
