... and the specific wear rate were obtained. The worn surfaces of composites were observed. The transfer film and its component were analyzed. Findings With the addition of 0.5% WS₂, the friction coefficient and specific wear rate increased. With the content increased to 1% and 1.5%, the friction...

... composite was analysed and discussed in detail with the support of scientific evidence, i.e. worn surface and debris analysis express the wear mechanisms.

... by varied cerium (Ce) addition in the alloy from 1 to 3 wt%. Dry sliding wear tests were performed against a hardened carbon steel (Fe‐2.3%Cr‐0.9%C) using a pin‐on‐disc configuration with fixed sliding speed of 1 m/s and load 50 N at room temperature of ∼25 degree. Morphologies of both worn surfaces...
