The aim of the present work is to determine the influence of borided surface layers on the friction parameter in the work of sliding pairs in the I.C. engine. The tribological evaluation included pack-borided and laser-borided surface layers deposited on rocker arm, piston pin and pin of crankshaft. The tests were performed in the generator set equipped with one-cylinder 4-stroke carburettor Robin Subaru engine. The wear of the elements of the combustion engine demonstrated that the process of boronizing has an important influence on the decrease of wear of the borided element of the friction pair.

The article focuses on the topical issues of studying the microstructure, physical-and-mechanical and tribological parameters of the surface layers of a “ring-cylinder liner” friction pair subjected to laser processing. The analysis of the main defects of the elements of the cylinder-piston group of the internal combustion engine, methods for their recovery and increase of tribotechnical characteristics has been carried out. It is noted that the most effective means of increasing the wear resistance of the “ring-cylinder liner” friction pair are various types of heat and chemical-heat treatment of the working surface of the link. As a result of tribological studies, it was found that there is an increase in the wear resistance of a “ring – cylinder liner” friction pair in all the investigated laser exposure modes, taking into account the identified boundary processing conditions for one and the other interfacing elements. The maximum value of wear resistance is observed during laser thermal strengthening of both mating surfaces, at critical levels of laser energy density, which do not cause melting and microcracks in the surface layer. In this case, the wear resistance of the modified surface of the cylinder liner can increase 4.5...5 times, and more than three times for the piston rings.

The using of polymeric materials as coatings for the restoration of worn–out machine parts has found application in the industry of repairment. Their wider use is hampered because of poor adhesion strength, shrinkage, ageing, low wetting ability and other properties of polymeric materials. To improve the physical and mechanical properties of polyamide P12, it is advisable to add to the composition of various substances that help to reduce shrinkage, ageing, increase wear resistance. It is proposed to increase the oil absorption of the surface layers of polymer composite coatings by introducing 5...10% of sodium chloride (NaCl) into the composition. The obtained porous coatings were further subjected to wear tests under various lubrication conditions. The wear rate of the composite material under different lubrication conditions is different, so after 240 hours of testing, friction wear without lubrication was 18.8 ±2 μm, when using water – 16.8 ±2 μm, and when using LITOL 24 grease – 10±1 μm ... When using LITOL 24, a positive gradient of interfacial resistance of molecular bonds and surface layers is provided. Abrasion of the latter, as a rule, is not abrasive, but frictional and manifests itself in the separation of different, configurations of particles from the surface layer. Also, the lubricant is in the friction zone for longer because it is retained in the artificially formed pores of the surface layer of the coating. The presence of grease in the friction zone reduces the wear rate of the metal counter body. In those cases when there was no lubrication or there was water, the wear rate of the metal counter body was higher and practically had the same character. So, after 240 hours of testing, the following results were obtained: with friction and without lubrication In.l.=14 ±1 µm; friction in the presence of running water Iwater=13±1 µm; friction when using Litol 24, I=9±1 μm. Based on the results obtained, it can be stated that for a metal–porous polymer composite sliding friction pair, the types of lubricants affect the intensity of their wear. It should be noted that during the first hundred hours of testing, the evolution of the wear of the friction pair with different types of lubricant is practically the same and has a tendency to increase smoothly. This type of wear can be explained by the transfer of the composite material to the metal counter body. After removing this layer from the metal counter body, the process of its wear is different and depends on the type of lubricant. Metal counter bodies practically do not change the nature of wear when using water as a lubricant, as well as when friction without lubrication, but when using LITOL 24 lubricant, the wear rate is much less. The durability of friction pairs largely depends on the size of the gap. Thus, for the friction pairs studied with friction without lubrication, the linear intensity of the change in the gap value for 240 hours of testing will be 6.03 ∙ 10–8, for the condition of friction in running water and with Litol 24 lubricant, respectively 5.5 ∙ 10–8 and 3.6 • 10–8. In other words, we can say that in the studied area of 240 hours, the gap in friction pairs with friction without lubrication increased by 60 μm per 1 km of the distance travelled, when using water at 55 μm/km and 36 μm/km when using Litol 24 lubricant. It was found that the intensity of the increase in the gap in the friction pair when using a porous polymer coating based on a polyamide epoxy composition as a counter body in a metal–polymer friction pair, under lubrication conditions with Litol, is 1.64 times less than when using such coatings without pores. The obtained porous coatings showed higher wear resistance when using water as a lubricant (1.1 times less than that of the base one). The results obtained confirm that the creation of a porous surface layer in the coating of the polymer composition will contribute to an increase in the service life of the recovered friction pairs by replacing the usual metal–metal pair with a metal–polymer one.

AbstractZeta potentials of SRL-131-29.8% TOS simulated nuclear waste glasses leached in D.I. water, Al, Ca, Mg, and Zn chloride solutions at 90°C were measured as a function of leaching time. For short term leaching, the adsorption of Ca, Mg, Zn and Al reverses the glass surface potential from negative to positive. Colloids were found to be stable in D.I. water and AICl3 solutions after leaching, presumably due to the electrostatic repulsion between the glass surface and similarly charged particles. Colloids were not found in Mg, Zn or Ca chloride solutions after leaching; instead, a relatively thick metasilicate surface layer was formed on glass surfaces leached in these solutions. The concentration of Si in solution is reduced by the formation of these surface layers.

It was established that at the cathodic treatment of titanium in aqueous dimethyl sulfoxide solutions of sodium molybdate, containing phosphoric acid, at the potential of the cathodic incorporation of sodium (Ec = −2.6 V) in the potentiostatic mode, the composition formed on the electrode surface layer depended not only on the composition of the solution, but also on the volume ratio of the aqueous electrolyte solution and the organic solvent (dimethyl sulfoxide).

The mechanisms of increasing the resistance of copper samples treated with a high-energy beam of nitrogen ions to adhesive wear during friction together with a copper counterbody in an argon atmosphere are studied. It was shown that the increase in wear resistance is complex and is associated with the action of mechanisms such as solid-solution hardening, grinding of copper grains, precipitation of the finely dispersed CuN3 phase, increase in the density of dislocations and internal stresses of the second kind in the surface layer . The maximum increase in wear resistance and microhardness (~ 4 and ~ 2.6 times, respectively, compared with the original copper) is observed about ion fluence of ~ 9×1017 ion/cm2. A further increase in fluencies leads to a decrease in wear resistance and microhardness due to the enlargement of the pores formed in the surface layer of copper as a result of implantation of nitrogen ions.

The results of the analysis of damageability and modification of the structural-phase state of the surface layers of aluminum and its alloys by powerful flows of fast high-energy ions and high-temperature plasma in Plasma focus devices, as well as using pulsed laser radiation. Pure Al, an alloy of the Al – Mg – Li system, a duralumin alloy, and a composition of a ceramic coating Al2O3 on an Al substrate are considered. It is shown that in the regime of Al irradiation with a power density of q ≈ 106 – 107 W/cm2 in the nano- and microsecond range of pulse durations, ultrafast crystallization of melted surface layer occurs with the formation of a wavy surface relief and the structural fragments of sub-microcrystalline and nanoscale size. After the action of deuterium plasma flows on a duralumin alloy tube located along the axis of the Plasma focus device a modification of the structural-phase state of the alloy is observed: the initial two-phase state of an αAl-solid solution of copper in aluminum and inclusions of the second phase of CuAl2 became fine-grained and single-phase due to the dissolution of CuAl2 particles in the melt. Irradiation of an alloy of the Al – Mg – Li system containing (wt %) 2 % Li and 5 % Mg at q = 5·106 W/cm2, t = 50 – 100 ns after four pulsed impacts of fast ions and deuterium plasma led to the modification the structural-phase state of the surface layer of the alloy, associated with an increase in the content of magnesium oxide and a decrease in the crystal lattice parameter of the Al-based solid solution. The formation of spherical cavities due to the evaporation of lithium into the internal micropores of the surface layer was also found. The low damage and structural stability of Al2O3 ceramics on an Al substrate under beam-plasma impacts in plasma focus device with a radiation power density q ≤ 108 – 109 W/cm2 in the nano- and microsecond range of pulse duration is noted. At the same time, the Al2O3/Al composition was unstable to pulsed laser radiation in the free-running mode (q = 105 – 106 W/cm2, t = 0.7 ms) and Q-switch mode (q = 107 – 108 W/cm2, t = 80 ns). In both cases the coating peeled off from the substrate.

<p><span>Discharges from the largest rivers of the World to coastal sea form sea-wide freshened surface layers which areas have order of hundred thousands of square kilometers. Large freshened surface layers (which are among the largest in the World Ocean) are located in the Kara, Laptev, and East-Siberian seas in the Eastern Arctic. </span><span>This work is focused on the structure and inter-annual variability of these freshened water masses during ice-free periods. The freshened surface layer in the Laptev and East-Siberian seas is formed mainly by deltaic rives among which the Lena River contributes about two thirds of the inflowing freshwater volume. Based on in situ measurements, we show that the area of this freshened surface layer is much greater than the area of the freshened surface layer in the neighboring Kara Sea, while the total annual freshwater discharge to the Laptev and East-Siberian seas is 1.5 times less than to the Kara Sea (mainly from the estuaries of the Ob and Yenisei rivers). This feature is caused by differences in morphology of the estuaries and deltas. Shallow and narrow channels of the Lena Delta are limitedly affected by sea water. As a result, undiluted Lena discharge inflows to sea from multiple channels and forms relatively shallow plume, as compared to the Ob-Yenisei plumes which mix with subjacent saline sea water in deep and wide estuaries. The shallow Lena plume spreads over wide area (up to 500 000 km<sup>2</sup>) in the Laptev and East-Siberian seas during and shortly after freshet period in summer and then transforms to the Laptev/East-Siberian ROFI in autumn. Area and position of the relatively shallow freshened surface layer in the Laptev and East-Siberian seas have large inter-annual variability governed by local wind forcing conditions, however, do not show any dependence on significant variability of the annual volume of discharge rate from the Lena River. The deep freshened surface layer in the Kara Sea also has distinct seasonal varability of area and position, however, is stable on inter-annual time scale.<br></span></p>

Influence of mechanical properties of the hard surface layer of modified polyamide 6 is studied. Mechanical properties are acquired by nanohardness test with using the DSI method (Depth Sensing Indentation). Hard surface layers are created by radiation cross-linking technology. This technology allows polymer materials modification followed by the change of their end-use properties. The surface layer of polymer material is modified by ionizing β - radiation. When the polymer material is exposed to the β radiation, it is possible to observe changes of the surface layer at applied load. Radiation cross-linking usually improves strength, reduces creep, contributes to chemical resistance improvement, and in many cases improves tribological properties.
