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}

Experimental results demonstrated that the as-deposited TC4 alloy has a relative density above 0.99. The as-deposited TC4 alloy was mainly composed of closepacked hexagonal structure α/ α′ phases. In addition, a small amount of β-phase was also detected. After annealing treatment, the TC4 alloy showed a similar phase composition. The microstructure of the as-deposited TC4 alloy was composed of acicular martensite a′phase accompanied by α-phase in β-matrix. After annealing treatment, the acicular α′ martensite decomposed, transforming the microstructure into a lamellar structure consisting of α- and β-phases.

The review compares industrial and modern techniques, focusing on their key advantages and disadvantages. The development of new process methods and techniques, such as reduction of nickel oxides with hydrogen in fluidized bed reactors and rotary furnaces, is demonstrated. Various methods for synthesizing nanosized nickel powders for special applications, being at the laboratory research stage, are considered.

The recrystallization stages, with temperatures corresponding to data determined with metallographic and other research methods, were identified. Only the first tempering stage was found to occur uniformly throughout the entire volume at a heating temperature of 190°C. Upon further heating, a linear stage ensued, where the temperature remained consistent throughout the entire volume of the material, persisting until the next stage. This was accompanied with energy release, as confirmed by a zero temperature gradient across all regions within the sample. With an increase in temperature to 210–215°C, a thermal surge was observed and visible temperature asynchronization was noted in individual volumes of the sample. However, this was followed by a temperature gradient between individual volumes. At this stage, asynchronized thermal behavior within the sample was observed for the first time, as evidenced by the emergence of thermal waves. Subsequent stages demonstrated nonlinear thermal behavior, evidenced by several competing processes leading to the wave-like transfer of energy accumulated as the copper powders deformed during cold pressing. Like recrystallization processes with first-order reactions in the high-temperature synthesis of intermetallic and other compounds, the emergence of thermal waves was due to several competing processes. Thus, if microplastic deformation processes occurred during recrystallization, then traveling waves could arise in the system, which was actually revealed. This could lead to thermal interference and subsequently to local buildup of thermal energy, potentially causing a sharp increase in temperature in individual areas of the wires deformed during switching and, as a result, their ignition. The temperature surges observed were likely to cause the combustion of insulating materials.

In the simultaneous interaction of active and inert metal melts with zirconium dioxide, the interface processes showed mutual influence: oxygen-deficient zirconium dioxide (ZrO<sub>2–<i>x</i></sub>) was formed through the absorption of oxygen from ZrO<sub>2</sub> by the active melt. This contributed to the dissolution of zirconium from the solid oxide in the inert melt, thereby activating it and increasing its adhesion to the substrate.
