Abstract
Tribocorrosion of stainless steel 316L and titanium alloy TA6V4 has been conducted in a sulphuric acid solution using an apparatus designed and built for evaluating the joint action of corrosion and wear. The material electrochemical and wear behaviours have been investigated during friction tests under electrochemical potential control. The specimens have been submitted to friction against an alumina ball under cathodic, free and anodic potentials. The friction coefficient, the wear rate and the current density were measured and the obtained results were discussed in terms of passivating film stability and repassivation kinetics.
