โœฆ Synopsis


The Al
x
CoCrCuFeNi alloys with different aluminum contents prepared by arc melting were investigated on their adhesive wear behaviors. With increasing aluminum content, both the volume fraction of BCC phase and the hardness value increase, and thus the wear coefficient decreases. Moreover, the wear mechanism changes from delamination wear to oxidative wear. For low aluminum content, x
=0.5, the microstructure is of simple ductile FCC phase and the worn surface is deeply grooved and undergoes a periodic delamination which produces big debris. For medium aluminum content, x
=1.0, the microstructure is a mixture of FCC and BCC phases, and the worn surface is deeply grooved in FCC region but smooth in BCC region. Delamination wear is still dominant although oxidative wear occurs in the smooth region. For high aluminum content, x
=2.0, the microstructure is of BCC phase and the worn surface is smooth and yields fine debris with high oxygen content. The high aluminum content gives a large improvement in wear resistance. This improvement is attributed to its high hardness, which not only resists plastic deformation and delamination, but also brings about the oxidative wear in which oxide film could assist the wear resistance.
