研究目的
Investigating the influence of diamond particle size on the hardness and tribological behaviour of laser textured 316L stainless steel reinforced with CuCoBe + diamond composites produced by hot pressing.
研究成果
The study demonstrated that laser texturing and reinforcement with CuCoBe + diamond composites significantly improve the tribological properties of 316L stainless steel, especially with larger diamond particles. The 316L + C_40-60 sample showed the best performance, suggesting potential applications in automotive piston rings.
研究不足
The high wear experienced by the cast iron counter body might be a limitation to the use of this pair in piston ring applications. Further studies on the tribological behaviour under lubricated conditions and increasing temperatures are required.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
The study involved mechanical alloying of CuCoBe and synthetic diamond powders with different particle sizes, laser texturing of 316L stainless steel, and consolidation/sintering by hot pressing. The tribological behaviour and hardness of the composites were evaluated.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
Samples included unreinforced 316L stainless steel and CuCoBe alloy, and their composites reinforced with diamond particles of sizes 0.1-0.5 μm and 40-60 μm.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
Planetary ball mill (Fritsch Pulverisette 7), Nd: YAG laser (Sisma Laser), vacuum pressure-assisted sintering system with a high-frequency induction furnace, reciprocating pin-on-plate tribometer (Plint TE67-HT), SEM (Nano-SEM - FEI Nova 200), EDS (EDAX - Pegasus X4M), XRD (Bruker D8 Discover), laser diffraction analyser (Mastersizer 3000 from Malvern Panalytical).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
Mechanical alloying of powders, laser texturing of steel, hot pressing sintering, hardness testing, and tribological assessment under dry conditions.
5:Data Analysis Methods
Hardness was calculated using Vickers hardness tests and depth-sensing indentation. Wear volume was calculated based on mass difference and density. SEM, EDS, and 3D profilometry were used for post-tribological analysis.
