Abstract
⺠The tribological behavior of Zr52.5Cu17.9Ni14.6Al10Ti5 BMG was studied using pin-on-disk tests in three different environments. ⺠The wear of the BMG is more sensitive to oxygen than moisture in the environment. ⺠The wear rate of the BMG decreases dramatically with decreasing environmental oxygen content. ⺠In oxygen-containing environments, abrasive wear-controlled process occurs. ⺠Mild sliding wear is the main mechanism in the tests conducted in an oxygen-free environment.
