Abstract
Advanced modern materials are required to operate at challenging conditions including mutual interactions under pressure and at elevated temperatures. In the present work, unidirectional sliding tests were performed to evaluate the wear behaviour of tribo-couple of AlCrN PVD coating deposited onto a stainless steel substrate and Si3N4, Al2O3, and ZrO2 ceramic balls counterbodies at different speeds ranged from as low as 0.002 up to as high as 1.458 m sâ1 and temperatures from 20 up to 800 °C. The wear scars were studied with the help of 3D optical surface profilometry, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive and Raman spectroscopy. Bulk and flash temperatures conditioned by sliding were analytically calculated. The wear mechanisms responsible for surface degradation are detailed.
