“…The base material used in this study was AISI 1045 steel. It is a common material for production of machine elements [34] such as in piston-ring system [35,36], hydraulic cylinder [37,38], seals, roller bearings [39] and gears [40]. This is due to its good weldability, high hardness, and moderate price [41].…”

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of multi-shape photochemical textured (PCT) steel surfaces on tribological performance. The textured surface with specific arrangement was fabricated by photochemical texturing, a common technique implemented in the microelectronic mechanical systems (MEMS) industry. It involves photolithography and chemical etching processes. The multi-shape studied were circle with line (CL) and circle with wavy (CW). Fabricated samples’ surfaces were characterized by using a 3D optical profiler to check the produced texture’s dimension. The effect of six different etching times on the texture’s dimension was observed. Then, only two sizes of both multi-shape textures were considered for tribological characterization. It was conducted by using ball-on-disk tribo-tester under lubricated conditions. The results obtained are compared with the reference untextured (UT) surface. From the results, it is found that appropriate size and shape of texture could lead to good friction reduction and anti-wear behaviour. The smaller size, size A, of CL multi-shape presented a lower friction coefficient compared to size B. However, different size of CW multi-shape has no effect on the friction behaviour. This is believed due to higher area density of CW compared to CL resulting in detrimental effect on friction for both CW’s size. Additionally, CL(size A) textured surface shows improved tribological behaviour compared to UT surface as lower friction coefficient and better wear resistance is obtained. This is maybe due to effective lubricating layer formation, good debris trapping effect and lower contact stress of the CL(size A) textured surface. These beneficial effects were achieved under lubricating condition through an increase in applied load.

“…With respect to the research on fabrications of surface texture, researchers mainly focus on the shapes of the ST unit, the processing methods of surface texturing, and related parameters [ 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 , 93 ]. Dimple and pimple with geometric configurations of ellipse, circle, triangle, square, hexagons, and grooves in the straight and zigzag lines have been adopted to form the shape of ST [ 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 87 ]. Up to now, there have been several ways to obtain ST on the surfaces of materials [ 41 , 94 ], including laser surface texturing (LST), laser shock peening (LSP), electro spark surface texturing (ESST)/electrical discharge machining (EDM), chemical reactive ion etching (RIE), lithography and anisotropic etching (LIAE), abrasive jet machining (AJM), lithography, galvanoformung, and abformung (LIGA), vibrorolling, undulated surfaces and so on.…”

“…While under the negative effects of friction in normal applications, the service performance of Ti6Al4V engineering components would be decreased and then the lifecycle of the whole equipment might also be reduced [ 100 , 101 ]. Surface texture-based surface treatments developed by different scientists and engineers have provided promising approaches to overcome the relevant issues [ 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 , 70 , 71 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 ,…”

“…It has been confirmed that artificial design on the surface topography/pattern of materials by imitating the non-smooth surfaces in the natural world can even realize some similar functions [ 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 ]. The way to obtain artificial surface patterns with typical distributing characteristics such as dimples, grooves, pimples and so on were collectively named as surface texture (ST) [ 43 , 44 , 45 ]. Surface texturing which has been confirmed as an effective method to improve the tribological behaviors of materials and tools in tribology-related fields, has been considered a hot issue in material science and mechanical engineering over the last decade [ 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 ].…”

Surface texture (ST) has been confirmed as an effective and economical surface treatment technique that can be applied to a great range of materials and presents growing interests in various engineering fields. Ti6Al4V which is the most frequently and successfully used titanium alloy has long been restricted in tribological-related operations due to the shortcomings of low surface hardness, high friction coefficient, and poor abrasive wear resistance. Ti6Al4V has benefited from surface texture-based surface treatments over the last decade. This review begins with a brief introduction, analysis approaches, and processing methods of surface texture. The specific applications of the surface texture-based surface treatments for improving surface performance of Ti6Al4V are thoroughly reviewed from the point of view of tribology and biology.

Surface Texturing-Plasma Nitriding Duplex Treatment for Improving Tribological Performance of AISI 316 Stainless Steel

et al. 2016

Surface texturing-plasma nitriding duplex treatment was conducted on AISI 316 stainless steel to improve its tribological performance. Tribological behaviors of ground 316 substrates, plasma-nitrided 316 (PN-316), surface-textured 316 (ST-316), and duplex-treated 316 (DT-316) in air and under grease lubrication were investigated using a pin-on-disc rotary tribometer against counterparts of high carbon chromium bearing steel GCr15 and silicon nitride Si3N4 balls. The variations in friction coefficient, mass loss, and worn trace morphology of the tested samples were systemically investigated and analyzed. The results showed that a textured surface was formed on 316 after electrochemical processing in a 15 wt % NaCl solution. Grooves and dimples were found on the textured surface. As plasma nitriding was conducted on a 316 substrate and ST-316, continuous and uniform nitriding layers were successfully fabricated on the surfaces of the 316 substrate and ST-316. Both of the obtained nitriding layers presented thickness values of more than 30 μm. The nitriding layers were composed of iron nitrides and chromium nitride. The 316 substrate and ST-316 received improved surface hardness after plasma nitriding. When the tribological tests were carried out under dry sliding and grease lubrication conditions, the tested samples showed different tribological behaviors. As expected, the DT-316 samples revealed the most promising tribological properties, reflected by the lowest mass loss and worn morphologies. The DT-316 received the slightest damage, and its excellent tribological performance was attributed to the following aspects: firstly, the nitriding layer had high surface hardness; secondly, the surface texture was able to capture wear debris, store up grease, and then provide continuous lubrication.
