Friction and sliding wear behaviour of Ti-B-N coatings against AISI440C steel ba ll and WC-6wt%Co ball were studied by using pin-on-disk tribometer along with mi crostructure characterization using optical microscopy ...Friction and sliding wear behaviour of Ti-B-N coatings against AISI440C steel ba ll and WC-6wt%Co ball were studied by using pin-on-disk tribometer along with mi crostructure characterization using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron m icroscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). It is shown that the wear resistance of film depended on the wear mechanism. In the case of AISI440C steel, adhesive wear were pre-dominant and the wear rate increased sharply to a maximum when N content reach ~38at.%. This might be related to the change of fi lm microstructure and phase configuration, so the least adhesive transfer of tri bo-film was observed. If WC-6wt%Co ball was used, less deformation wear debris w as observed, this was responsible for the rise of wear rate. Despite of differen t wear modes, friction coefficients in both cases were found to depend mainly on the formation and the amount of h-BN phase. Elemental analysis by energy disper sive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) revealed that oxygen participated in the wear behavior by reacting with films to form the deb ris comprised of various types of Ti oxide including TiO, TiO2 and Ti2O3 , which increased wear resistance.展开更多
