Abstract
Friction of two materials in artificial seawater induces severe degradations of both antagonists. In view of evaluating materials wear resistance, this investigation is devoted to the development of a new ring-on-disk tribocorrosimeter device. Its relevance to the study of wear due to plan/plan friction is analyzed comparing it to classical pin-on-disk experiments, with special emphasis on the influence of several factors: choice and respective position of both materials in contact, applied load, test duration.
