In this work, AlCrFeNiTi_(x) high-entropy alloy(HEA) powders were synthesized by direct electrochemical reduction in molten salt from the mixed metal oxides. Then,TiN ceramic coating on the AlCrFeNiTi_x bulk HEA containing the topologically close-packed(TCP) phase(σphase, Laves phase, and Ti_(3)Al phase) was prepared by vacuum hot pressing sintering, where nitride element come from boron nitride parting agent sprayed on the graphite mold. The effect of titanium content on the crystal structure, microstructure, hardness, and wear resistance of the products were investigated by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscope, field emission electron-probe microanalysis,Vickers hardness tester, and friction–abrasion testing machine. The bulk HEAs exhibit excellent hardness and its hardness increases significantly with the increase of titanium content. The wear mechanism changes from both of predominantly delamination and accompanied oxidative wear to single delamination wear,which is due to ultra-high melting point and high hot hardness of TiN, that can effectively prevent the oxidation and deformation of the worn surface. Formation of the ceramic coatings containing the TiN second phase and TCP phase are the key factor to AlCrFeNiTi_x alloy with the excellent hardness and wear properties.展开更多

The suitable surfactants have been selected and put into lubricating oil with nanometer CaCO3 particles. By testing some parameters, such as the maximum non-seizure load, the shape and diameter of wear scar, the friction factor, the nanometer CaCO3 particles’ properties of extreme pressure, anti-wear and friction reduction have been tested and analyzed. The properties of the nanometer CaCO3 particles’ tribology chemistry have been analyzed through X-ray photoelectron spectrum (XPS) test. Also the nanometer CaCO3 particles’ mechanism of anti-wear and friction reduction has been studied systematically. The research results show that, the lubricating oil with nanometer CaCO3 particles have good tribological properties.展开更多
