Study and Comparison of Tribological Wear Behavior Characteristics of Titanium Dioxide Coated Mild Steel
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 6
Abstract
Mild steel is the most common form of steel as its price is relatively low while it provides material properties that are acceptable for many applications. Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength, but it is cheap and malleable; surface hardness can be increased through Coating.During working, the parts fabricated using these metals inevitably make contact with other metal surfaces resulting in wear and reduction of life. To enhance life of these parts, their mechanical properties and tribological properties should be improved. Wear is the removal of material from a solid surface due to rubbing action of another solid. This can be done by reinforcing the metal parts with metal composites or by coating these surfaces with other hard substrates. Therefore, coating is better method as it improves properties only at surface. Hence in the above two methods, surface coating method is a popular way of improving tribological properties at the surfaces. So in this work titanium dioxide Coating on Mild Steel by plasma spray coating and the test was conducted by Pin on disc wear test (for adhesive wear testing).
