High temperature self-lubricating Ti-Mo-Ag composites with exceptional high mechanical strength and wear resistance

Titanium alloys are of keen interest as lightweight structural materials for aerospace and automotive in-dustries.However,a longstanding problem for these materials is their poor tribological performances.Herein,we designed and fabricated a multiphase Ti-Mo-Ag composite(TMA)with heterogeneous triple-phase precipitation(TPP)structure by spark plasma sintering.A lamellar α-phase(αL)precipitates from the β-phase under furnace cooling conditions and maintains a Burgers orientation relationship(BOR)with β-matrix.An active eutectic transition also occurs in the titanium matrix,resulting in TiAg phase.The intersecting acicular TiAg and lamellar αL cut β grains into fine blocks and the primary equiaxed αphase also provides many interfaces with β phase,which together effectively impede dislocation move-ment and increase strength.Compared with other titanium composites,TMA with TPP microstructure gets an excellent combination of strength(yield strength 1205 MPa)and toughness(fracture strain 27%).Furthermore,the TPP structure endows TMA with strong cracking resistance,which aids in reducing abra-sive debris at high temperatures during sliding and obtaining a low wear rate.Simultaneously,Ag parti-cles distributed at grain boundaries will easily diffuse to the wear surface,in situ forming the necessary lubricating phase Ag2MoO4 with Mo-rich matrix debris via oxidation.TMA possesses excellent tribologi-cal properties with especially low wear rate of 8.0 x 10-6 mm3N-1m1 and friction coefficient(CoF)of merely 0.20 at 600 ℃.Unlike other self-lubricating composites with high volume fraction of soft ceramic lubricants,which inevitably sacrifice their mechanical strength and ductility,the composite TMA pos-sesses well-balanced strength,toughness and self-lubricating properties.It holds important implications to design other metal matrix self-lubricating composites(MMSCs)used for load-bearing moving parts.
