Tribological and electric-arc behaviors of carbon/copper pair during sliding friction process with electric current applied

The tribological behaviors of carbon block sliding against copper ring with and without electric current applied were investigated by using an advanced multifunctional friction and wear tester, and the electric-arc behaviors were analyzed in detail. The results show that the normal load is one of the main controlling factors for generation of electric arc during friction process with electric current applied. The strength of electric arc is enhanced with the decrease of normal loads and the increase of electric currents. The unstable friction process and the fluctuated dynamic friction coefficients are strongly dependent upon the electric arc. The wear volumes and the wear mechanism of carbon brush were affected by the electric arc obviously. As no electric arc occurs, no clear discrepancy of the wear volumes of the carbon samples with and without electric current applied could be detected. While the wear mechanisms are mainly mechanical wear. However, under the condition of the electric arc appearance, the wear volume of carbon with electric current applied increases much more rapidly than that without electric current applied and also increases obviously with the increase of electric current strengths and the decrease of normal loads. The wear mechanisms of carbon block are mainly electric arc ablation accompanying with adhesive wear and material transferring.

Effects of nitrogen flux on microstructure and tribological properties of in-situ TiN coatings deposited on TC11 titanium alloy by electrospark deposition

In order to improve the tribological properties of titanium alloys,the in-situ TiN coatings were prepared by electrospark deposition（ESD） on the surface of TC11 titanium alloy.The effects of nitrogen flux on the microstructure and tribological properties of TiN coatings were investigated.The results show that the coating is relative thin when the nitrogen flux is small and mainly consists of Ti2N,α-Ti,Ti O and TiN phases,and the metastable phase of Ti2N is developed due to the rapid solidification of ESD.While in excessive nitrogen flux condition,many micro-cracks and holes might be generated in the coating.In moderate nitrogen flux,the coating is mainly composed of TiN phase,and is dense and uniform（50-55 μm）.The average hardness is HV0.2 1165.2,which is 3.4 times that of the TC11 substrate.The TiN coatings prepared in moderate nitrogen flux perform the best wear resistance.The wear loss of the coating is 0.4 mg,which is 2/9 that of the TC11 substrate.The main wear mechanisms of the coatings are micro-cutting wear accompanied by multi-plastic deformation wear.

Influence of Ti target current on microstructure and properties of Ti-doped graphite-like carbon films

Ti-doped graphite-like carbon （Ti-GLC） films were synthesized successfully by magnetron sputtering technique. The compositions, microstructures and properties of the Ti-doped GLC films dependent on the parameter of Ti target current were systemically investigated by Raman spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, atomic force microscopy （AFM）, nanoindentation and ball-on-disk tribometer. With the increase of the Ti target current, the ratio of sp2 bond and the content of Ti as well as the film hardness and compressive internal stress increase, but the high content of the Ti would result in the loose film due to the formation of the squamose structure. Less incorporated Ti reduces the friction of the GLC film in dry-sliding condition, while pure GLC film exhibits the lowest friction coefficient in water-lubricated condition. Ti-GLC film deposited with low Ti target current shows high wear resistance in both dry-sliding and water-lubricated conditions.

Thermal stability of electrodeposited nanocrystalline nickel assisted by flexible friction

Nanocrystalline nickel coating was prepared by flexible friction assisted electrodeposition technology in an additive-free Watts bath.The coating consists of massive equiaxial crystals with an average grain size of about 24 nm and exhibits a（111） preferred orientation.The differential scanning calorimetry（DSC） analysis of nanocrystalline nickel demonstrates that the peak temperature of rapid grain growth is about 285.4 °C,and the peak temperature of grain growth towards equilibrium is around 431.5 °C.The isochronous annealing results reveal that abnormal grain growth behavior is not observed in nanocrystalline nickel without sulfur-containing.The thermal stability of the deposition was improved due to its initial microstructure of the as-deposited nickel and a certain amount of annealing nano-twins with low-energy,which reduces the driving force for grain growth.Consequently,the coating shows a low residual tensile stress of about 50 MPa and a high microhardness of HV 400 at the annealing temperature of 450 °C.

Microstructures and mechanical properties of electroplated Cu-Bi coatings

Electroplating has been used to produce Cu-Bi coatings. The crystal structure and lattice parameters of Cu in Cu-Bi composite coating were measured and compared with Cu coating. The mechanical properties of the coatings were also studied. It was found that the deposition parameters have significant effect on the mechanical properties of the Cu-Bi coatings. The microhardness has been improved from HVso165 of Cu coating to HVs0 250 of Cu-Bi composite coating prepared at 50 mA/cm2 for 20 min. Correspondingly, wear resistance of the Cu-Bi composite coating has also been enhanced significantly.

Beneficiation study of Eshidiya phosphorites using a rotary triboelectrostatic separator

This study was performed to investigate the feasibility of applying a Rotary Triboelectrostatic Separator（RTS） to the beneficiation of Eshidiya phosphate minerals.RTS separation tests were carried out on phosphatic bed A_1,phosphatic bed A_3 and slime samples.The bed A_1 and slime samples were tested without desliming.Two sets of tests were performed using the A_3 sample： one was performed without desliming and the other with the A_3 sample deslimed.RTS separation tests as initially performed on the bed A_1 and slime samples gave products that had essentially the same P_2O_5 content.This indicated that adsorbed clay particles on the phosphate surface are responsible for the poor separation of un-deslimed phosphates.Better triboelectrostatic separation was observed with the undeslimed A_3 phosphate sample;these tests resulted in a highest product grade of 26%P_2O_5.The deslimed A_3 sample showed far more effective separation than the undeslimed A_3 one.In fact,a concentrate of 34%P_2O_5 was obtained from the triboelectrcstatic separation of deslimed A_3.The results indicate that with deslimed A_3 P_2O_5 recovery was about 65%for a concentrate of 28%P_2O_5 and about 45%for a concentrate of 30%P_2O_5.These results clearly show the importance of desliming for effective beneficiation of phosphate by the RTS.A more efficient separation can be expected from optimized operating conditions and circuit configuration.

Dry coal fly ash cleaning using rotary triboelectrostatic separator

More than 80 million metric tons of fly ash is produced annually in the U.S. as coal combustion by-product. Coal fly ash can be converted to value-added products if unburned carbon is reduced to less than 2.5%. However, most of fly ash is currently landfilled as waste due to lack of efficient purification technologies to separate unburned carbon from fly ash. A rotary triboelectrostatic separator has been developed and patented recently at the University of Kentucky with unique features. Several fly ash samples have been used to understand the effects of major process parameters on the separation performance. The results show that compared to existing triboelectrostatic separators, the rotary triboelectrostatic separator has significant advantages in particle charging efficiency, solids throughput, separation efficiency, applicable particle size range.

Measurements of Conductivity for Low Concentration Strong-electrolytes in Organic Solvents (Ⅰ) LiBr, LiCl, and LiNO_3 in Alcohols

The conductivities of LiBr, LiCl, and LiNO 3 in methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, and 2-propanol (with electrolyte concentrations <0.08 mol·L-1 ) were determined at 298.15 K, 313.15 K, and 323.15 K at atmosphere pressure separately by using a conductivity meter. The conductivity data were correlated with Foss-Chen-Justice (FCJ) equation and the limiting molar conductivities were obtained. The mean ionic activity coefficients of the salts in the organic solvents were calculated according to the Debye-Hückel limiting law and Onsager-Falkenhangen equations. The calculated results were compared with those activity coefficients in literature.

Parametric study of electrostatic separation of South African fine coal

The fact that water requirements are a major problem for present and future developments in material beneficiation, and the construction of a new power plant in South Africa, forms the basis for the utilization of a Rotary Triboelectrostatic Separator (RTS) for beneficiation of South African pulverized coal. The cleaning potential of Majuba and Koorfontein coal was first evaluated using kinetic froth flotation tests on the -177 μm coal fraction. The RTS tests were conducted under varied process parameters. Parameters such as applied separating voltage, air injection velocity, particle feed rate and splitter position were investigated. Two stage separation results show that the RTS reduced Majuba coal initially containing about 30% ash to a clean product of 14.30%, or 19.46%, ash at a combustible recovery of 15.10%, or 53.02%, respectively. Similar separation performance was also achieved with the Koorfontein coal. The mineral and organic compositions in the feed, after single stage and after the second stage separations were characterized using X-ray diffraction analysis. The results show a better separation for the second stage coal products.

Effect of arc re-melting on microstructure,mechanical and tribological properties of commercial 390A alloy

To investigate the effect of the arc re-melting on the microstructure,mechanical and tribological properties of the 390 A alloy,its ingot produced by the conventional induction melting method was subjected to the arc re-melting process.The microstructure of the 390 A alloy was examined by OM and SEM.Mechanical properties of the 390 A alloy were determined by the Brinell method and tensile tests.Tribological properties were investigated with a ball-on-disc type tester.It was observed that the microstructure of both conventional induction melted and arc re-melted 390 A alloys consisted ofα(Al),eutectic Al-12 Si,primary silicon particles,θ-CuAl_(2),β-Al_(5) FeSi,δ-Al_(4) FeSi_(2),andα-Al_(15)(FeMnCu)3 Si_(2) phases.Re-melting with the arc process caused grain refinement in these phases.In addition,after this process,theα(Al)phase and primary silicon particles were dispersed more uniformly,and sharp edges of primary silicon particles became round.The arc re-melting process resulted in an increase in the hardness of the 390 A alloy produced by the conventional method from 102 HB to 118 HB and the tensile strength from 130 to 240 MPa.It also caused an increase in the wear resistance of the 390 A alloy and a decrease in the friction coefficient.

Effect of chemical conditioning on the triboelectrification of coal and mineral particles

Chemical conditioning was used to modify the triboelectrification of coal and mineral particles.The chemicals tested included starch,lignin,kerosene,ethanol,acetic acid,salicylic acid,sodium oleate,Sodium Hexametaphosphate(SH),sodium silicate, Sodium Dodecylbenzenesulfonate(SDBS),Sodium Bicarbonate(SB) and ammonia.A high-speed,dry mixing method was employed.The charge-to-mass ratio of the coal and mineral samples,both untreated and treated,was tested using a Faraday cup. Dielectric constants were determined by measuring capacitance.It is found that the selectivity of the additives toward coal or minerals is not consistent.Salicylic acid is the optimal additive to enhance the triboelectrification performance of coal samples.Starch, lignin and sodium oleate are suitable for removal of pyrite.SH,sodium silicate,SDBS,SB and ammonia are suitable additives for the removal of ash-forming minerals.

Friction and Wear Behaviors of Nano-Silicates in Water

Nano-metric magnesium silicate and zinc silicate with particle size of about 50-70nm were prepared in water by the method of chemical deposition. The antiwear and friction reducing abilities of the nano-silicates, as well as their composites with oleic acid tri-ethanolamine （OATEA）, were evaluated on a four-ball friction tester. The topographies and tribochemical features of the worn surfaces were analyzed by scanning electron microscope （SEM） and X-ray photoelectron spectroscope （XPS）. Results show that nano-silicates alone provide poor antiwear and friction reducing abilities in water, but exhibits excellent synergism with OATEA in reducing friction and wear. The synergism in reducing friction and wear between nano- silicates and OATEA does exist almost regardless of particte sizes and species, and may be attributed, on one hand, to the formation of an adsorption film of OATEA, and, on the other hand, to the formation oftribochemical species of silicon dioxide and iron oxides on the friction surfaces. Tribo-reactions and tribo-adsorptions of nano-silicates and OATEA would produce hereby an effective composite boundary lubrication film, which could efficiently enhance the anti-wear and friction-reducing abilities of water.

Ultrasonic Linear Motor with Anisotropic Composite

An idea to make up the vibrating body of ultrasonic motor with anisotropic composite is proposed and a linear piezoelectric motor is developed in this paper. Relative problems such as actuating mechanism, resonant frequency are discussed theoretically. According to the feature that impulse exists between the elastic body of composite ultrasonic linear motor and the base, an impulse analysis is presented to calculate the motor′s friction driving force and frictional conversion efficiency. The impulse analysis essentially explains the reason why the ultrasonic motor has great driving force, and can be applied to analyze the non-linear ultrasonic motor.

Mechanical properties and wear resistance of medium entropy Fe40Mn40Cr10Co10/TiC composites

The Fe40Mn40Cr10Co10/TiC (volume fraction of TiC, 10%) composites were synthesized in combination of ball milling and spark plasma sintering (SPS) in the present work. Mechanical properties and wear resistance of the Fe40Mn40Cr10Co10/TiC composites were individually investigated. It was found that TiC particles homogenously distributed in the Fe40Mn40Cr10Co10/TiC composite after being sintered at 1373 K for 15 min. Meanwhile, grain refinement was observed in the as-sintered composite. Compared with the pure Fe40Mn40Cr10Co10 medium entropy alloy (MEA) matrix grain, addition of 10% TiC particles resulted in an increase in the compressive strength from 1.571 to 2.174 GPa, and the hardness from HV 320 to HV 872. Wear resistance results demonstrated that the friction coefficient, wear depth and width of the composite decreased in comparison with the Fe40Mn40Cr10Co10 MEA matrix. Excellent mechanical properties and wear resistance could offer the Fe40Mn40Cr10Co10/TiC composite a very promising candidate for engineering applications.

Improving tribological and thermal properties of Al alloy using CNTs and Nb nanopowder via SPS for power transmission conductor

This study aimed at improving the tribological and thermal properties of Al alloy using CNTs and Nb nanopowder as reinforcements and spark plasma sintering(SPS)as the fabrication method.The SPS was conducted at 630℃,30 MPa,10 min,and 200℃/min.The tribology test was run with ball-on-disc tribometer using steel ball as the counter body.And the thermal test was processed with thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA)and laser flash apparatus(LFA).Results showed that the addition of 8 wt.%CNTs and 8 wt.%Nb reinforcements respectively decreased the coefficient of friction(COF)of the composite by 79%.The wear volume of the composite was decreased by 23%,and so was the wear rate.However,the thermal conductivity of the composite was equally improved by 44%.The tribology improvement was stimulated by a C film generated by CNTs and a protective Nb2O5 formed by Nb nanopowder.The thermal conductivity was improved by the grain refining property of Nb and the high thermal conductivity of CNTs.Therefore,these results indicated that Al-CNTs-Nb composite is a robust material for high transmission conductor capable of reducing sag and ensuring the durability of the composite.

Prestiction friction compensation in direct-drive mechatronics systems

LuGre model has been widely used in friction modeling and compensation.However,the new friction regime,named prestiction regime,cannot be accurately characterized by LuGre model in the latest research.With the extensive experimental observations of friction behaviors in the prestiction,some variables were abstracted to depict the rules in the prestiction regime.Based upon the knowledge of friction modeling,a novel friction model including the presliding regime,the gross sliding regime and the prestiction regime was then presented to overcome the shortcomings of the LuGre model.The reason that LuGre model cannot estimate the prestiction friction was analyzed in theory.Feasibility analysis of the proposed model in modeling the prestiction friction was also addressed.A parameter identification method for the proposed model based on multilevel coordinate search algorithm was presented.The proposed friction compensation strategy was composed of a nonlinear friction observer and a feedforward mechanism.The friction observer was designed to estimate the friction force in the presliding and the gross sliding regimes.And the friction force was estimated based on the model in the prestiction regime.The comparative trajectory tracking experiments were conducted on a simulator of inertially stabilization platforms among three control schemes:the single proportional–derivative(PD)control,the PD with LuGre model-based compensation and the PD with compensator based on the presented model.The experimental results reveal that the control scheme based on the proposed model has the best tracking performance.It reduces the peak-to-peak value(PPV)of tracking error to 0.2 mrad,which is improved almost 50%compared with the PD with LuGre model-based compensation.Compared to the single PD control,it reduces the PPV of error by 66.7%.

Microstructural characterization and dry sliding wear behavior of spark plasma sintered Cu-YSZ composites

In the present study, yttria stabilized zirconia （YSZ） reinforced Cu matrix composite specimens were produced by spark plasma sintering （SPS）. For comparison, pure Cu specimen was also produced in the same conditions. The effect of particles content on microstructure, relative density, electrical conductivity, and Vickers hardness was evaluated. The pin-on-disk test was also performed to determine dry sliding wear behavior of specimens under different wear conditions. After sliding wear tests, the worn surfaces were examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy （FE-SEM）. Microstructural study showed satisfactory distribution of reinforcement particles in copper matrix. The relative density up to 95%was obtained for all specimens. By increasing YSZ content from 0 to 5% （volume fraction）, the electrical conductivity of specimens decreased from 99.2%IACS to 65%IACS, correspondingly. The hardness of Cu-5%YSZ composite specimen was two times greater than that of pure copper. The volume loss and wear rate of pure Cu specimen were 1.48 mm^3 and 1.5±10^-3 mm^3/m under 50 N applied load and 1000 m sliding distance. However, for composite containing 5% YSZ particles, these values dropped to 0.97 mm^3 and 0.9±10^-3 mm^3/m, respectively. Moreover, the friction coefficient of specimens was changed from 0.6 to 0.4. The worn surface and debris observation indicate local plastic deformation and delamination as dominant wear mechanisms for pure copper, while oxidation and ploughing for composite specimen. Accordingly, it can be concluded that the Cu-YSZ composite could be a good candidate for the electrical contact applications in relays, contactors, switches and circuit breakers requiring good electrical and thermal conductivity and capability to resist wearing.
