Effect of Ti3SiC2 on Tribological Properties of M50 Matrix Self-Lubricating Composites from 25 to 450 °C
Source abstract
Abstract
The tribological performance is a key factor for M50 steel that is widely used in aero-engine main-shaft bearings. In this study, the tribological properties of M50 matrix self-lubricating composites with different contents of Ti3SiC2 against Si3N4 ceramic counterpart are investigated at 15 N-0.2 m/s from 25 to 450 °C. The results showed that M50 with 10 wt.% Ti3SiC2 (MT10) exhibits the lower friction coefficients (0.21-0.78) and less wear rates (1.78-3.14 × 10−6 mm3 N−1 m−1) at 25-450 °C. Especially at 350 °C, MT10 shows the lowest friction coefficient and wear rate owing to the formation of smooth lubricating layer containing Ti3SiC2 and oxides. Ti3SiC2 and compacted Ti-Si-oxides are uniformly distributed in the lubricating layer, which can well improve the anti-friction and anti-wear performance of MT10. The mechanically mixed layer containing massive Ti3SiC2 can sustain the lubricating layer, resulting in the increase of anti-wear performance of MT10. MT10 could be applied under the practical conditions of friction and wear for its outstanding anti-friction and anti-wear performance.
