In this research, the four-ball tribometer was examined to evaluate the tribological behavior of environment-friendly nano-MoS2 water-based rolling liquid. This experimental method is used to measure the maximum non-seizure load (PB) and the coefficient of friction (μ). The newly introduced parameter ω can be combined with PB and μ to evaluate the tribological performances of the rolling liquid comprehensively. The rolling lubrication performance of nano-MoS2 water-base lubricant was investigated using a single stand 4-high reversing rolling mill. The surface morphologies and rolling textures of the samples were measured by laser scanning confocal microscope after cold rolling. The results show that when the concentration of nano-MoS2 is 0.4wt.%, the water-based rolling liquid has excellent tribological and lubricating properties. Meanwhile, compared with the surface quality of the rolled strip under other lubrication conditions, the surface quality of the cold-rolled strip using 0.4wt% nano-MoS2 rolling liquid as the lubrication condition is smooth without visible surface defects.
The abrasive particles in the working emulsion were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The wettability and lubricating properties of different emulsion samples were tested by MRS-10E four-ball friction and wear testing machine. The results show that the average particle size of the abrasive particles in the working emulsion is 2.72 μm, the smallest particle size of the abrasive particles is 0.36μm, and the largest size of the abrasive particles is 6.57μm. Furthermore, the abrasive particles can increase the internal friction of emulsions, which leads to the increasing wetting Angle. The abrasive particles cause the lubrication performance of working emulsion to decrease, which eventually leads to larger wear scar diameter and the worse morphology of wear scar on the tested ball.
This paper selected cold-rolled low carbon steel as the object of experimentation to better understand that the annealed sample was baked in different degree of pre-deformation span to measure its baking hardening property. The main results of the experiments are as follows: The sample was set in different pre-deformation. Firstly, the baking temperature was set as 170°C and the time span was 20 minutes. The results released that when the degree of pre-deformation was set between 2% and 5%, the BH value increased with the increasing degree of pre-deformation. Secondly, the degree of pre-deformation was set between 5% and 10%, the BH value decreased with the increasing degree of pre-deformation. Thirdly, when the degree of pre-deformation was set at 5%, the BH value reached the maximum. It is illustrated that the BH value increased along with the rising of SKK peak while decreased with the falling of SKK peak. It indicated that the increase of the BH value was mainly due to the intensification of the Cottrell Atmosphere. As the pre-deformation increased, the sum of hSnoek+hSKK decreased. It is worth noting that while under the same circumstances, the sum of hSnoek+hSKK increased after baking.
