Cobalt-chromium (CoCr)-based alloys have been used for wear applications because of their excellent mechanical properties and wear resistance. With growing concern over environmental problems, CoCr alloys are expected to be used for various tribological applications in degraded lubrication states. To expand the applicability of the materials, data should be accumulated across a broad spectrum of experimental parameters. In this work, the friction and wear characteristics of cobalt-chromium-tungsten (CoCrW) and cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) alloys are investigated experimentally. The tests are conducted using a pin-on-reciprocating-plate tribotester in dry lubrication. CoCrW and CoCrMo are used as pin and plate materials to investigate the effect of the counter material. The results show that the friction coefficients between CoCrW and CoCrMo generally range from 0.4 to 0.5. The friction coefficient between the CoCrW pin and plate is found to be slightly small. However, the total wear between the CoCrW pin and plate is found to be the largest. In contrast, the total wear between the CoCrW pin and plate is relatively small. Furthermore, CoCrW may cause a faster wear progression of CoCrMo, especially for the case in which CoCrMo is used as the pin material. The results of this work provide a better understanding of the tribological properties of CoCrW and CoCrMo alloys. In addition, this work provides a practical guideline for the use of CoCrW and CoCrMo from the tribological design viewpoint.

A series of oxo-and sulfido-bridged molybdenum (V) complexes, Mo$_2$O$_4$L$_2$, Mo$_2$O$_3$L$_4$, Mo$_2$O$_2$S$_2$L$_2$, and Mo$_2$OS$_3$L$_2$ [L = bis(hydroxyethyl)dithiocarbamate] have been prepared. The complexes with bridging and terminal oxo groups have been synthesized by the reactions of (PyH)$_2$MoOCl$_5$ or MoCl$_5$ and ligand in water. One of the rest two complexes, in which bridging and terminal oxo groups have been replaced by sulfido in Mo$_2$O$_4^{2+}$ core, Mo$_2$O$_2$S$_2$L$_2$ have been prepared by addition of triphenylphosphine to a chloroform solution of Mo$_2$OS$_3$L$_2$. While, Mo$_2$OS$_3$L$_2$ is obtained from aqueous solution of (NH$_4$)$_2$MoS$_4$ and ligand in the presence of sodium dithionite. The complexes are identified by elemental analysis, and spectral data of IR, UV-vis, nmr, and mass. Also, the electrochemical behaviour for the complexes in dimethylsulfoxide has been investigated by the cyclic voltammograms.

Miniaturized specimen technology is useful to characterize the mechanical behavior when it is difficult to sample the material enough for the test. In this study, two kinds of miniaturized Charpy impact specimens(i.e., miniaturized specimen with side groove and without side groove) of aged 1Cr- lMo-0.25V steel were prepared and tested. The relationship between the extent of degradation in terms of ductile brittle transition temperature(DBTT) and the fracture stress of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel was established. The fracture stress obtained from miniaturized specimen without side groove turned out to be linearly related with the DBTT of standard specimen. Therefore the fracture toughness of aged turbine rotor steel might be evaluated by the fracture stress. In addition, the correlation between DBTT of standard specimen and that of miniaturized specimen was investigated. As the results of normalizing DBTT by maximum elastic tensile stress, the normalized DBTT of miniaturized specimen without side groove allows one to estimate that of standard specimen.

Various compositions of$ Cr_2$$O_3$/Mo composite powders were fabricated using spray-drying method and plasma-spray coatings of these powders were prepared to understand their tribological properties. Experiments were conducted using a reciprocal type tribo-tester at room temperature under dry sliding condition. The worn surface of coated specimens were observed using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) and chemical compositions were analyzed using XRD (X-ray Diffractometry) and XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy). The results showed that friction coefficient of the Mo added specimens were lower than that of $Cr_2$$O_3$specimen. However $Cr_2$$O_3$specimen showed the lowest wear loss. Wear protecting layer were observed at the worn surface of coated specimens with Mo addition. From the XPS analysis, the mixed phases of $Cr_2$$O_3$ $CrO_3$and $MoO_3$were founded in the wear protecting layer.

We synthesized molybdenum thin films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering and physicochemical analysis was performed. The physical and chemical properties of these films were examined with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The obtained film at the oxygen ratio of 0% showed crystallinity of cubic Mo(110) phase. After the oxygen ratio increased more than 5% in the sputter gas, the molybdenum films were formed as an amorphous phase. The thickness of the Mo thin film was drastically decreased from 1000 nm to ca 70 nm after introduction of oxygen in the sputter gas confirmed by spectroscopic ellipsometer (SE) and scanning electron spectroscopy (SEM). The calculated band gap of the film deduced from SE data increased from 3.17 to 3.63 eV by addition of oxygen in the sputter gas. The roughness of the Mo film was examined with atomic force microscopy (AFM) and it was dramatically decreased by introducing of oxygen during sputtering. XPS results revealed that the ratio of metallic Mo species in the film decreased by the contents of Mo(VI) species increased at the ratio of oxygen increased in the sputter gas and fully oxidized at low content of oxygen in the sputter gas.

The anionic transition metal hydrides $(HW(CO)_4P(OMe)_3\;^-,\;HW(CO)_5\;^-,\;HCr(CO)_5\;^-,\;HFe(CO)_4\;^-)$ react with transition metal alkyl $(CpMo(CO)_3(CH_3)$ to yield $CH_4\;and\;CH_3CHO$ in addition to the inorganic products $(CpMo(Co)_3\;^-$, etc.). The reaction of these anionic metal hydrides with CpMo(CO)3{CH2CH(CH2)2} may lead to an elucidation of the reaction mechanisms involved; the organic product distributions are among $CH_4,\;CH_2\;=\;CHCH_2CH_3$, and $CH_3CH(CH_2)_2$, depending upon the anionic metal hydride used. These anionic metal hydrides also are reported to undergo a hydride-halide exchange reaction with organic halides; therefore, these similar reactions have been compared in terms of leaving group ability $(CpMo(CO)_3\;^-\;vs.\;Br^-)$ and the mechanistic pathways.

This study examined the corrosion behavior of bimetal materials composed of Fe-Ni alloy and Fe-Ni-Mo alloy, both suitable for use in electromagnetic switches. Electrochemical polarization and weight loss measurements revealed that, in contrast to Fe-Ni alloy, which exhibited pseudo-passivity behavior, Fe-Ni-Mo alloy had higher anodic current density, displaying only active dissolution and greater weight loss. This indicated a lower corrosion resistance in the Fe-Ni-Mo alloy. Equilibrium calculations for the phase fraction of precipitates suggested that the addition of 1 wt% Mo may lead to the formation of second-phase precipitates, such as Laves and M₆C, in the γ matrix. These precipitates might degrade the homogeneity of the passive film formed on the surface, leading to localized attacks during the corrosion process. Therefore, considering the differences in corrosion kinetics between these bimetal materials, the early degradation caused by galvanic corrosion should be prevented by designing a new alloy, optimizing heat treatment, or implementing periodic in-service maintenance.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of Mod.9Cr-1Mo and W added 9Cr-0.5Mo2W steels were investigated for liquid metal reactor (LMR) heat exchange tube. The tempering temperatures at which cell structure was formed were $700^{\circ}C$ for Mod.9Cr-1Mo steel and $750^{\circ}C$ for W added 9Cr0.5Mo-2W steel. indicating the recovery of dislocation was delayed by the addition of W. 9Cr-0.5Mo-2W steel had the same kinds of precipitates with Mod.9Cr-1Mo steel, but the W was included in the precipitates in 9Cr-0.5Mo-2W steel. Micro-hardness and ultimate tensile strength of 9Cr-0.5Mo-2W steel were higher than those of Mod.9Cr-1Mo steel. The impact property of Mod.9Cr-1Mo steel was superior to that of 9Cr-0.5Mo-2W steel.

The hydrogen reduction behavior of molybdenum oxides was studied using a horizontal-tube reactor. Reduction was carried out in two stages: MoO₃ → MoO₂ and MoO₂ → Mo. In the first stage, a mixed gas composed of 30 vol% H₂ and 70 vol% Ar was selected for the MoO₃ reduction because of its highly exothermic reaction. The temperature ranged from 550 to 600 ℃, and the residence time ranged from 30 to 150 min. In the second step, pure H₂ gas was used for the MoO₂ reduction, and the temperature and residence time ranges were 700-750 ℃ and 30-150 min, respectively. The hydrogen reduction behavior of molybdenum oxides was found to be somewhat different between the two stages. For the first stage, a temperature dependence of the reaction rate was observed, and the best curve fittings were obtained with a surface reaction control mechanism, despite the presence of intermediate oxides under the conditions of this study. Based on this mechanism, the activation energy and pre-exponential were calculated as 85.0 kJ/mol and 9.18 × 10⁷, respectively. In addition, the pore size within a particle increases with the temperature and residence time. In the second stage, a temperature dependence of the reaction rate was also observed; however, the surface reaction control mechanism fit only the early part, which can be ascribed to the degradation of the oxide crystals by a volume change as the MoO₂ → Mo phase transformation proceeded in the later part.

Graphite and $MoS_2$ were added respectively to the Cu/Sn bond materials of the same composition as a lubricant in order to find out the effect of lubricants on the mechanical properties and the increase in density of the sintered products for microblades. The addition of $MoS_2$ as a lubricant was more beneficial to strength, fracture toughness, and hardness as well as densification than graphite. $MoS_2$ seemed to be more effective in reducing the friction between the metallic powders and die wall during hot pressing process. Due to the better wettability of MoS2 with bond metal alloy, less amount of interfacial defects which is detrimental to mechanical properties use observed.
