Abstract

This paper describes a uniaxial test system that acquires a full data set of information in real time in situ consisting of an image and topographical map of all the wear surface of the disc, together with other signals such as the applied load and friction load. This enables comprehensive off line analysis of results that enables the understanding of tribological phenomena that occur during wear.

The utility of the test system was demonstrated through tests on four tribological systems. The process of failure for the two thin coatings tested showed two different failure modes, indicating that failure of the CrAlN coating took place through a sudden delamination process, but the DLC coating failed by a gradual process of removal of coating through abrasion.

The other two cases showed examples of the formation and dynamics of transfer layers, including movement, removal and reforming.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Refractory Metals and Hard Materials (IJRMHM) publishes original research articles concerned with all aspects of refractory metals and hard materials. Refractory metals are defined as metals with melting points higher than 1800 °C. These are tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, tantalum, niobium, hafnium, and rhenium, as well as many compounds and alloys based thereupon. Hard materials that are included in the scope of this journal are defined as materials with hardness values higher than 1000 kg/mm2, primarily intended for applications as manufacturing tools or wear resistant components in mechanical systems. Thus they encompass carbides, nitrides and borides of metals, and related compounds. A special focus of this journal is put on the family of hardmetals, which is also known as cemented tungsten carbide, and cermets which are based on titanium carbide and carbonitrides with or without a metal binder. Ceramics and superhard materials including diamond and cubic boron nitride may also be accepted provided the subject material is presented as hard materials as defined above.
