“…For a droplet with a radius greater than, or equal to, 1 mm, the optimal design is a cylinder with a height H of 30 μm, diameter D of 15 μm, and pitch P of 130 μm, as shown in Figure 40 [170]. The micro-column array with small spacing, a small diameter, and a high height has a better hydrophobic effect [171]. The processing changes the chemical energy of the material surface which, in turn, changes its wettability.…”

A water hydraulic axial piston pump has become the preferred power component of environmentally friendly water hydraulic transmission systems, due to its advantages of a compact structure, high power density, and so on. The poor friction and wear performance in the water medium, especially under extreme conditions of high speed and high pressure, limit the engineering application of the water hydraulic axial piston pump. In this review, the research progress for key friction pair materials (such as special corrosion-resistant alloys, engineering plastics, and engineering ceramics) for water hydraulic axial piston pumps is, firstly, summarized. Secondly, inspired by nature, the processing methods, lubrication drag-reduction mechanism, and tribological properties of the biomimetic surface textures are discussed. The effects of the surface texture shape, equivalent diameter, depth, and arrangement on the pump’s tribological properties are reviewed in detail. Finally, the application status of, and problems with, surface texture technology in water hydraulic axial piston pumps are summarized. It is suggested that future studies should focus on the multi-field coupling lubrication anti-friction mechanism of the multi-type composite texture under extreme conditions and mixed lubrication; and the anti-wear performance of the texture coupled with a coating modification, to further promote the surface texture in the field of lubrication antifriction engineering applications.
