Characterizing corrosive wear of chemically reactive surface layers on metal and ceramic brake disc materials
Charakterisierung von korrosivem Verschleiß von chemisch reaktiven Oberflächenschichten auf Metall-und Keramikbremsscheibenmaterialien
- This work is aimed to study the effect of two types of stresses/corrosion on different materials used in making of disc brake rotors, atmospheric corrosion and thermal fatigue. The materials chosen were steel (100Cr6), nodular cast iron (GJS-400-15) and Aluminium reinforced silicon carbide (F3S-20S). Specimens of the each material will be subjected to an induced atmospheric corrosion using the salt spray (fog) chamber for two different test durations to simulate atmospheric corrosion. Other specimens of the chosen materials will be subjected to a thermal fatigue test through a repeated heating-cooling cycle. The effects on the materials will be measured by the difference in the values of coefficient of friction and the wear rate before and after the tests are carried out. Analysis of the induced corrosion and thermal fatigue products will be carried out by XRD analysis and microscopic photos of the surfaces. A comparison between the different tested materials will also be performed.
