Wear characteristics of bonded solid film lubricant under high load condition

Naofumi Hiraoka, Akira Sasaki, N. Kawashima, Toshio Honda

Abstract

Wear properties of phenolic resin bonded molybdenum disulfide film lubricant were studied. In-vacuo journal bearing tests were performed to evaluate the wear-life of this film lubricant. The wear-life depends on substrate materials and on sliding velocity. Pretreated substrate surfaces were examined to reveal the reasons for these results. Additionally, investigations on film wear mechanisms were made.
