Abstract

Inspired by the scales on the surface of crucian carp, the biomimetic fan-shaped textures were designed and prepared on the TC4 contact surface and filled with solid lubricant SnAgCu-Nb2C (SACN). The coupling effects of fan-shaped textures and solid lubricants on the tribological properties of TC4 under variable frequency conditions were investigated. The results indicated that the fan-shaped textures could promote the precipitation of lubricants and provide sufficient lubricants for the worn surface, forming a uniform lubricating film on the worn surface, thus improving the tribological properties. In addition, at the low-frequency stage, the coupling of lubricants and textures had strong adaptability to frequency changes.
