文摘The tribological properties of nitrided Ni(45)(FeCoCr)(40)(AlTi)(15)high-entropy alloys(HEAs)were investigated in air and simulated acid rain under different normal loads(5,7,10,and 12 N)at ambient temperature.The results revealed that as-cast HEAs were only composed of FCC phase,while the volume fraction of FCC phase in the nitrided alloys was significantly reduced.Moreover,the hard phases of AIN,CrN,Fe4 N,and TiN phases were formed in the nitrided alloys.The thickness of the nitriding layer was about 8.4μm.The hardness increased from 8.7 GPa in as-cast alloys to 14.5 GPa in the nitrided alloys.In addition,under the same conditions,the friction coefficient of the nitrided alloys was higher than that of as-cast alloys,but the wear rate was generally lower than that of as-cast alloys.Furthermore,the wear rate of the nitrided alloys was the lowest in acid rain due to the lubrication,cleaning,and cooling in the liquid environment.In air,dominating wear mechanisms in as-cast and nitrided alloys were abrasive,delamination,and adhesive wears.And,the wear mechanism of as-cast and nitrided alloys in acid rain was mainly abrasive and corrosion wears.

文摘The corrosion and impact-abrasion-corrosion behaviors of quenching-tempering Fe-Cr martensitic steels for ball mill liner were investigated in the corrosive slurry of a copper mine compared with high manganese steel.It is found that the corrosion resistance and the protectiveness of the passive film of Fe-Cr martensitic steels became worse when the carbon content increased.The quenching-tempering Fe-Cr martensitic steel showed better impact-abrasion-corrosion resistance in the corrosive slurry compared with the high manganese steel,especially the alloy steel with the carbon content of 0.3 wt.%.The synergistic effect between mechanics and corrosion has also been analyzed to further reveal the impact-abrasion-corrosion mechanism of the steels.The damage from pure mechanics accounted for the largest percentage(over 65%)for all steels,demonstrating that mechanical damage played the most important role in the impact-abrasion-corrosion behaviors of the steels.The impact and cracking resistance of the steel should also be paid special attention during the development of new materials for ball mill liner.

文摘Hot-dip galvanizing provides excellent corrosion and wear resistance for steels.However,the equipment itself,such as the steel roller,immerged in corrosive molten zinc suffers serious material loss during steel's production.Its protection has become the main technique problem in modern galvanizing line.In this study,an enamel coating was designed and prepared.Its tribo-corrosion in molten zinc alloy(Zn-0.2 wt%Al)at 460℃was investigated in comparison with the traditional WC-12 Co composite coating and the 316 stainless steel.Results indicate that the steel suffers serious material damage.Various corrosion products of Fe_(2) Al_(5) Znx form at the worn surface and the wear scar has reached 200μm deep after merely 5 h tribo-corrosion.Though the two coatings provide an improved tribo-corrosion resistance,for the WC-12 Co coating,its chemical reaction with the molten zinc increases brittleness and promotes cracking.The synergistic wear and corrosion cause its degradation.The enamel coating performs better during tribo-corrosion.It is chemically stable in molten zinc thus able to provide high corrosion resistance.In addition,the amorphous[Si04]network and the self-lubricating CaF_(2) crystallite help it to build up an intact amorphous glaze layer readily at surface on sliding,leading to a reduced wear loss.During the whole tribo-corrosion process,the enamel coating is completely free of cracking,and the Zn penetration is inhibited.

文摘With the rapid development of semiconductors,the number of materials needed to be polished sharply increases.The material properties vary significantly,posing challenges to chemical mechanical polishing(CMP).Accordingly,the study aimed to classify the material removal mechanism.Based on the CMP and atomic force microscopy results,the six representative metals can be preliminarily classified into two groups,presumably due to different material removal modes.From the tribology perspective,the first group of Cu,Co,and Ni may mainly rely on the mechanical plowing effect.After adding H_(2)O_(2),corrosion can be first enhanced and then suppressed,affecting the surface mechanical strength.Consequently,the material removal rate(MRR)and the surface roughness increase and decrease.By comparison,the second group of Ta,Ru,and Ti may primarily depend on the chemical bonding effect.Adding H_(2)O_(2)can promote oxidation,increasing interfacial chemical bonds.Therefore,the MRR increases,and the surface roughness decreases and levels off.In addition,CMP can be regulated by tuning the synergistic effect of oxidation,complexation,and dissolution for mechanical plowing,while tuning the synergistic effect of oxidation and ionic strength for chemical bonding.The findings provide mechanistic insight into the material removal mechanism in CMP.
