The starting materials included calcium phosphate glass ceramics derived from biogenic hydroxyapatite, featuring both bound and migrating glass phases, and activated nanostructured carbon fibers. The glass ceramics with a bound glass phase were produced by sintering powder mixtures of biogenic hydroxyapatite and sodium borosilicate glass, while those with a migrating glass phase were produced through mechanical mixing of biogenic hydroxyapatite and sodium borosilicate glass powders. The fine activated nanostructured carbon fibers used in the biocomposites were obtained by the mechanical grinding of a woven material from activated nanostructured carbon fibers. This material resulted from the controlled stepwise pyrolysis of hydrocellulose fabrics, followed by high-temperature vapor activation of the nanostructured fiber surface. To make cylindrical biocomposite samples, the fine activated nanostructured carbon fibers were blended with moistened mixtures of biogenic hydroxyapatite glass ceramics with bound and migrating glass phases and subjected to semidry pressing and incremental sintering with holding at 800°C.

Stages with both nonlinear and linear thermal behavior were present, as evidenced by the competition between several processes leading to the emergence of wave-like transfer of energy, accumulated while powdered iron deformed during cold pressing. The thermokinetic patterns observed in the heating of compacts, especially those made of pure iron, allowed all stages of relaxation in the deformed metal to be identified. The temperature profile in the heating process generally reflects the thermal state of the powdered metal, influenced by the additional release of energy accumulated in deformation. At some stages, heat release led to nonlinear processes, resulting in the occurrence of thermal waves. Both asynchronous and synchronous temperature changes were observed. In asynchronous behavior, nonlinear waves emerged. The superposition of relaxation processes in the generation of thermal waves is possible. At specific heating rates, the maximum amount of energy is simultaneously released in the relaxation and recrystallization processes, as testified by an increase in temperature to 550°C.

The effect of tribofilms that form and evolve in the friction process in air at loads of 2.0 MPa and rotational speeds from 5,000 to 15,000 rpm on the tribological properties was analyzed. The evolution of dissipative tribofilms and the counterface occurs through a bifurcation mechanism with a transition to one of two attractors, depending directly on the high-speed loading modes. At speeds of 5,000–13,000 rpm, a continuous homogeneous lubricating layer forms on the contacting surfaces. Electron microscopy and elemental mapping of the tribofilm confirmed that the distribution of elements was uniform, promoting high antifriction properties and a sustained self-lubrication mode. With increase in the rotational speed to 15,000 rpm, the system exhibits a self-organization effect in the formation of a coarse heterogeneous tribofilm. This tribofilm loses its continuity and is an accumulation of phases, leading to a sharp decline in antifriction properties. The dual formation of tribofilms is decisively influenced by operating conditions, particularly the intensity of external energy. Depending on this energy, tribofilms show different structures and manifest in two functionally opposite types, transforming from antifriction films to friction ones, resulting in significantly different tribotechnical properties. Copper-based antifriction composites can be recommended as an effective alternative to cast bronzes for operation at rotational speeds of 5,000–13,000 rpm and loads of 2.0 MPa in the friction units of forming, printing, and offset cylinders in high-speed printing equipment.</p>","PeriodicalId":742,"journal":{"name":"Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics","volume":"63 1-2","pages":"69 - 81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142565770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
