Tribological Behavior of Titanium Alloys during Friction against Ceramics

Abstract:

The article considers the issues of tribological properties of a titanium alloy when sliding without lubrication on zirconium ceramics. The coefficients of friction and wear resistance of friction pairs are investigated in relation to conditions in which it is impossible to use liquid lubricants. The statement about the possibility of normal operation of a pair of titanium - zirconium ceramics at a temperature of 150 ° C and more is substantiated. It is shown that the working capacity of a friction pair can be ensured by alphanizing the friction surface. Taking into account that titanium alloys are widely used in aircraft engine technology, special attention is paid to the coefficient of friction, because a high value can lead to failure of the friction unit. On the basis of the study, the application perspectiveness of zirconium ceramic materials for increasing the reliability and service life of friction units operating without lubrication at elevated temperatures in contact with a titanium alloy have been established.ds.
