摘要/Abstract

Abstract:

In this study, Cu/WS₂self-lubricating composites are fabricated by spark plasma sintering. Interfacial microstructure and its effect on mechanical and tribological properties are investigated. High sintering temperature at 850 °C promotes decomposition of WS₂ and its following interfacial reaction with Cu to form Cu_0.4W_0.6 nanoparticles and Cu₂S, enhancing mechanical properties as well as wear resistance of the composites. But the destruction of WS₂ leads to a high friction coefficient. On the contrary, for the composites sintered at 750 °C, a nanoscale diffusion zone forms at the Cu/WS₂ interface. WS₂ lubricant retains its lamellar structure. The composite shows excellent self-lubrication performance, with a low friction coefficient of 0.16. However, its mechanical properties are low, and the wear rate is one magnitude higher.

Key words: Self-lubricating composites, Interfacial microstructure, Wear, Fracture
