Abstract
Cr3C2–NiCr+10%Ni/MoS2 composite coating was fabricated on H13 hot work mould steel using a Laser Thermal Spraying (LTS). The friction–wear behaviors of obtained coating at 25, 400 and 700 °C were investigated using a ball–on–disc wear tester, and the effect of MoS2 on the lubrication in the friction–wear process was also discussed. The results show that the average coefficients of friction (COFs) of Cr3C2–NiCr+10%Ni/MoS2 coating at 25, 400 and 700 °C are 0.68, 0.55, and 0.35, respectively, and the corresponding wear rates are 25.97 × 10–6, 30.06 × 10–6, and 11.86 × 10–6 mm3 · N–1 · s–1, respectively. The average COF and wear rate at 700 °C are the lowest among the three kinds of operation temperatures, the MoS2 particles and oxidation layer play a positive role of lubrication, which is the main factor of friction–wear reduction. The wear mechanism at 25 °C is abrasive wear, while those at 400 and 700 °C are primary abrasive wear, accompanied by oxidative wear.
