Frictional characteristics of electro Zn-Ni alloy coated steel sheets

Zn-Ni계 합금도금강판의 마찰특성에 관한 연구

The frictional characteristic of Zn-Ni electrogalvanized steel sheet was investigated by experimental procedures. To clarify the effect of surface property on the frictional characteristic of Zn-Ni coated steel sheet, Micro-hardness test, SEM analysis and X-ray diffraction analysis were carried out. Coefficients of friction for various stamping lubricant and Ni content in coated layer were measured by a draw bead friction test. The results show that frictional characteristic is very sensitive to Ni content of coated layer and depends on stamping lubricant. For Ni content less than about 11%, selection of proper lubricant is necessary to obtain low coefficient of friction in Zn-Ni coated steel sheet such as in case of cold rolled steel sheet.

본 연구에서는 자동차용 Zn-Ni계 합금 전기도금 강판(electro Zn-Ni alloy coated steel sheet, EGN)에서 도금층 중의 Ni함량에 따른 금층의 표면특성이 마찰거 동에 미치는 영향과 윤활유 종류에 따른 Ni 함량별 마찰특성을 파악하여 최적 스탬핑 조건을 도출하는데 기여하고자 한다.
