“…For environmental and legal reasons, efforts are being made to remove lead from bearing alloys. Numbers of materials are already proposed as alternative to leaded alloys, in particular metallic composites containing self-lubricant particles like graphite, MoS 2 or PTFE [1][2][3][4]. Increasing the wear performances of alternative materials to leaded bronze requires a scientific understanding of the relevant mechanisms, and in particular of the relationship between materials microstructure and tribological behavior.…”

“…The presence of the graphite film reduces the shear stress and improves the tribological properties of the sliding surfaces which lead to a great reduction in wear volume. Increasing the graphite volume fraction in the composite produces a dense, thick and continuous graphite film due to the weak bond between copper and graphite within the composite which is limited to a mechanical bond since the solubility of carbon in copper does not exceed 0.02atm%, a condition which on sliding squeezes the graphite out to the surface [6]. Returning to Figs.…”

“…Moreover, graphite has low density as compared with copper. These two reasons excluded casting and made powder metallurgy the most suitable technique used to produce such composites [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…The arc erosion of the graphite-copper composite contact strip was reduced by the electroplating of zinc on graphite since the zinccoated graphite particles were homogeneously distributed in the copper matrix. Kováčik et al [33] investigated the effect of graphite composition on the friction coefficient of copper-graphite composites in the range of 0-50 vol.% of graphite at constant load. The study was specifically done to determine the critical graphite content above which the coefficient of friction of the composite remains almost composition independent and constant.…”
