Journal ArticleDOI
Tribological behaviour of self-lubricating materials at high temperatures
TL;DR: Self-lubricating materials are becoming more widespread in fields like metal forming or power generation due to the inability to use conventional lubricants in high-temperature (HT) applications as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface engineering of Ti6Al4V surfaces for enhanced tribocorrosion performance in artificial seawater
Vladimir Totolin,Vladimir Pejaković,Thomas Csanyi,Oliver Hekele,Martin Huber,Manel Rodríguez Ripoll +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a micro-tribometer coupled with an electrochemical cell was used to check the synergistic effect of wear and corrosion, also known as tribocorrosion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Friction and Lifetime of Laser Surface–Textured and MoS2-Coated Ti6Al4V Under Dry Reciprocating Sliding
TL;DR: In this paper, a nanosecond pulsed laser was used to texture a titanium alloy surface and subsequently coated with MoS2, and the results showed that under certain conditions, surface texturing can reduce friction, extend the lifetime of the coating and provide a progressive coating degradation until failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of niobium in improving toughness and corrosion resistance of high speed steel laser hardfacings
Manel Rodríguez Ripoll,Niko Ojala,Christian Katsich,Vladimir Totolin,Christian Tomastik,Klaudia Hradil +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, high speed steel hardfacings were deposited using a high-power direct diode laser with the aim of investigating the role of niobium content on their mechanical and corrosion properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tribocorrosion behaviour of Ti6Al4V in artificial seawater at low contact pressures
TL;DR: In this article, the tribo-electrochemical performance of Ti6Al4V in artificial seawater is investigated under reciprocating sliding conditions at three contact loads (10mN, 100 mN, and 1 n) and three electrochemical conditions (−0.5
