Abstract
This paper aims to experimentally investigate the effects of lubrication and temperature on the tribology behavior of a magnesium alloy, AZ31B, sliding against 86CrMoV7. The effects of lubricant additives, including oil film improver and extreme pressure (phosphorous donors), on the friction coefficient and surface morphology in the sliding zone were studied. It was found that the relatively lower surface hardness of the material significantly affects the wear of the materials in the sliding zone. The lubricant with oil film improver and extreme pressure can reduce friction. Temperature rise brings about lower friction due to the lubricant additives.
