Effects of temperature and normal load on tribological behavior of nickel-based high temperature self-lubricating wear-resistant composite coating

摘要

NiCr/Cr_3C_2-WS_2-CaF_2 mixed powders were designed and aimed to fabricate high temperature self-lubricating wear-resistant composite coating by laser cladding. The friction and wear properties of the coating were investigated under different temperatures and loads against Si_3N_4 ceramic ball. Results show that friction coefficient decreases with the increasing temperature while the wear rate firstly decreases and then increases with the increasing temperature. Both the friction coefficient and wear rate firstly decreases and then slightly increases with the increasing normal load. The coating exhibits relatively excellent tribological behavior under moderate temperature and moderate normal load.
