Abstract
A gradient design of material is an effective way to solve the inhomogeneity of current-carrying damage. However, service conditions have a great influence on the current-carrying damage of gradient composites. To promote the development and application of current-carrying friction materials, it is necessary to elucidate the current-carrying damage mechanism of gradient composites with different service conditions. To this end, the gradient copper-graphite composites were prepared by hot pressing and sintering, and the variation in the current-carrying properties of the composites with loads were investigated in this study. The results showed that with increasing load, the wear rate of the composites initially decreased and then increased, while the current-carrying properties initially improved and then deteriorated. The composite exhibited better current-carrying tribological performance at the load of 55 N, and the wear rate of the composite was 1.59 × 10−4 mm3 N−1 m−1. Meanwhile, the current carrying efficiency and current carrying stability was 98.5 % and 2.2 %, respectively. The main wear mechanism of the composite at 55 N was plastic deformation.
期刊介绍:
Wear journal is dedicated to the advancement of basic and applied knowledge concerning the nature of wear of materials. Broadly, topics of interest range from development of fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of wear to innovative solutions to practical engineering problems. Authors of experimental studies are expected to comment on the repeatability of the data, and whenever possible, conduct multiple measurements under similar testing conditions. Further, Wear embraces the highest standards of professional ethics, and the detection of matching content, either in written or graphical form, from other publications by the current authors or by others, may result in rejection.
