TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF ALUMINIUM OXIDE LAYER MODIFIED BY CARBON
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2010, Vol 231, Issue 3
Abstract
The article presents the tribological and stereometric properties of aluminium oxide layers modified by carbon. The coatings were produced on EN-AW-5251 aluminium alloy substrate using a two-stage technology. The matrix composite coating made the oxide layer produced via hard anodising method, which was then modified with the vacuum deposition method. Coatings were investigated in connection with PEEK/BG and T5W materials. Tribological tests were carried out on T-17 tester in reciprocating motion under lubricant-free sliding condition.<br/><br/>

AN EXAMINATION OF THE CONDITION OF WORKING SURFACES OF CRANKSHAFT CRANKPINS AND JOURNALS BASED ON THE MATERIAL FRACTION CURVES
The paper focuses on the significance of the microgeometry of the working surfaces of crankpins and the main bearing journals on the durability and reliability of farm tractor engines. Alternative surface roughness param...
ANALYSIS OF THE POTENTIAL USAGE OF SELECTED MAGNETIC FLUIDS IN THRUST SLIDE BEARINGS
Magnetic fluids are substances whose rheological properties can be actively influenced by treatment with a magnetic field. Two main types of magnetic fluids can be distinguished: ferromagnetic fluids, and magnetorheologi...
FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF THE THERMAL BEHAVIOUR OF SINGLE-DISC CLUTCHES DURING REPEATED ENGAGEMENTS
Most of the failures in the sliding systems occur due to the high thermal stresses, which generated at the interface between the contacting surfaces due to sliding between parts, such as friction clutches and brakes. In...
THE INFLUENCE OF EQUILIBRIUM QUALITY PARAMETERS OF A SURFACE LAYER ON THE WEAR RESISTANCE OF PARTS
The article describes the processes of hardening and softening of the surface layer of parts in the process of wear during the formation of the equilibrium state of work surfaces of friction units. Based on the energy ap...
TEMPERATURE OF PLOUGHSHARE MATERIAL IN THE COURSE OF PLOUGHING
The change of temperature of subsurface layer material of ploughshare, occurring in the course of fine sandy loam (8% moisture and temperature 15.3°C) cultivation, done with bed making plough, was determined. Measuring s...
