Research on the Tribological Properties of Ni-W Alloy Electric Brush Plating Coatings at Elevated Temperatures

摘要

In order to improve the anti-wear and anti-corrosion properties of mechanical parts used in high temperature friction conditions, the Ni-W alloy brush plating coatings were prepared and their tribological properties at elevated environment temperatures were investigated. The results show that the friction coefficients of Ni-W/GCr15 tribo-couples are in the range of 0.168～1.048, which take on the decreasing trend as the increase of environment temperatures. The wear losses of the coatings increase at elevated temperatures, and the critical temperature in which the coatings produce serious wear from slight wear is 250°C. The wear mechanism of the coatings are micro-cutting at room temperature, then it changes into adhesive wear accompanied by a certain of delamination when temperature is high than 250°C. When temperature is higher than 400°C, the main wear mechanism of the coatings is adhesive wear and delamination.
