Contribution to the Improvement of the Wear Resistance of the AISI 1010 Material by the Tribofinishing Process Using the Box-Behnken Experimental Designs

Abstract:

Tribofinishing is a mechanical-chemical process that utilizes low-frequency vibrations in the presence of abrasives and chemical additives. This process is primarily dependent on frequency and amplitude, which generally leads to improvements in characteristics, mechanical properties, physical attributes, and metallography of the treated surfaces. This document examines the influence of abrasives, specifically bakelites used as unguided cutting tools, on the wear resistance of AISI 1010 carbon steel. It takes into account the variation of influential parameters, namely frequency, amplitude, and treatment duration. The use of Minitab version 16 software enabled us to statistically analyze and interpret the obtained results, both numerically and graphically. This analysis also allowed us to determine the order and degree of influence of the factors on the response. The obtained results are highly interesting. The coefficient of friction decreased significantly with an increase in the treatment time, up to 90 minutes, while maintaining a frequency of up to 90 Hz and a maximum amplitude of 5 mm.
