Between diaphragms made of stainless steel (SUS), which is the main component of a hydrogen gas compressor, micro-slip occurs owing to repeated bending, resulting in scratches on the surface. The surface scratch of the compressor part is a problem with airtightness, which reduces the efficiency of the compressor; in severe cases, damage is a possibility. In this study, the changes in friction and wear characteristics due to the surface polishing of SUS and carbon-based solid lubricant films (graphene and CNT) were analyzed. Bare SUS, polished SUS, graphene film, and CNT film specimens were prepared. The surface roughness of the SUS was significantly reduced by surface polishing but increased by carbon-based solid lubricating films. In contrast, the friction coefficient maintained a similar value after surface polishing but was significantly reduced by the carbon-based solid lubricant films. In particular, the graphene film exhibited the lowest initial friction coefficient, while the CNT film exhibited the lowest overall average friction coefficient. Regarding the wear rate, polished SUS exhibited the lowest value, but the surface condition of the wear track showed that the carbon-based solid lubricating films were relatively less damaged. Although the wear rate measured was largely attributed to the solid lubricating film peeling off, the SUS surface under the film was considered protected.

MoS$_{2}$ bonded film was applied to reduction gears, and its lubricating properties were experimentally evaluated in terms of the power transmission efficiency and the frictional noise with a dynamo-typed gear test rig. Tests were performed in both oil lubrication and dry condition where the rotating velocity and loading torque were varied. In dry condition, MoS$_{2}$ bonded films effected the power transmission efficiency to increase about 5%, and the frictional noise level to decrease about 6 dB under the test operating conditions. It well proved that MoS$_{2}$ bonded films were a very effective solid lubricant for reduction gears. In oil lubricating conditions, the frictional properties of the coated gears were mainly governed by the lubricating oil, and lubricating effects of MoS2 bonded films were not evident. The result suggested that lubricating effect of MoS$_{2}$ bonded films would be limited to prevent a damage of reduction gears in the initial run when they were used in oil lubrication conditions.

Friction and wear properties of MoS$_2$ bonded films were studied using the Falex testing machine, and their properties were evaluated in terms of the life and the load carrying capacity of the films. MoS$_2$ bonded films were formulated from the mixtures of MoS$_2$ solid particles and epoxyphenol resin, and they were applied onto AISI 4130 steel surface by dipping method to form lubricating bonded films. The results of the life and the load carrying capacity of the films showed that films were mainly affected by the surface temperature arisen from the frictional heat at the contact surface. To obtain enhanced tribological properties of the films, various combinations of solid lubricants and additives with a basic polymer resin were attempted and evaluated. The effects of surface pretreatment, such as sand blast or Zn-phosphating, were also investigated.

동적 기밀구조에 사용되는 고체윤활재의 선택에 있어 중요 설계 변수들은 기밀성, 내마멸성, 윤활막의 형성 등이 있다. 본 연구에서 그라파이트의 고체유할 특성에 영향을 미치는 영향인자들이 분석되었고 다양한 시험 조건들에 대하여 발생하는 마모거동이 왕복동 마모시험으로부터 얻은 결과들과 비교되었다. 또한 윤활 막들의 생성에 대한 최적조건들이 그라파이트 소재의 특성들을 평가하기 위하여 조사되었다. 마멸입자의 생성, 윤활 막의 생성, 윤활 막의 소멸의 과정을 반복하는 과정이 마모 깊이의 변화와 통하여 마모 메커니즘을 평가하였다. 따라서 그라파이트 씰의 윤활막은 마모된 표면위에 마모 입자들의 응착에 의해 발생한 윤활막이 발생되었고 이는 마모특성에 매우 유용하였다.

Ice crushing occurs in many situations that involve a sliding frictional component such as sports involving ice-contact, ice interaction with ship hulls, and ice-on-ice sliding/crushing within glaciers and between interacting sea ice floes. Ice crushing-friction tests were conducted in the lab at $-10^{\circ}C$ using a set of acrylic ice-crushing platens that included a flat smooth surface and a variety of high-roughness surfaces with regular arrays of small prominences. The experiments were part of Phase II tests of the Blade Runners technology for reducing ice-induced vibration. Ice was crushed against the platens where the ice movement had both a vertical and a horizontal component. High-speed imaging through the platens was used to observe the ice contact zone as it evolved during the tests. Vertical crushing rates were in the range 10-30 mm/s and the horizontal sliding rates were in the range 4.14-30 mm/s. Three types of freshwater ice were used. Friction coefficients were extraordinarily low and were proportional to the ratio of the tangential sliding rate and the normal crushing rate. For the rough surfaces all of the friction coefficient variation was determined by the fluid dynamics of a slurry that flowed through channels that developed between leeward-facing facets of the prominences and the moving ice. The slurry originated from a highly-lubricating self-generating squeeze film of ice particles and melt located between the encroaching intact ice and the surfaces.

Friction and wear behavior of MoS$_{2}$ bonded films were evaluated at a Block-on-Ring typed tribo-tester, and their properties were compared with those of Falex tester in terms of the wear life of the films. Test results showed that friction and wear properties were significantly affected by the test methods of different contact configuration, and the wear life at a Block-on-Ring type tribo-tester was mostly governed by the resin binder. To obtain long wear life of the films, various combinations of solid-resin-content ratio and chemical resin modification were attempted and evaluated. Adhesion properties of resin binders were also measured and compared by using a scratch tester.

본 연구에서는 수직 하중과 미끄럼 속도가 DLC (a-C:H)와 WC/C (a-C:H:W)의 마찰 특성에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 ball-on-disk 형태의 마찰 실험 장치를 이용하여 실험을 수행하였다. 연구 대상 고체 윤활막인 DLC와 WC/C는 AISI 52100 steel ball의 표면에 증착되었으며, 상대 마찰면의 재질은 침탄 경화된 SCM 415 Cr-Mo steel이다. 실험은 상대 습도가 20~40 %이고 온도가 $16{\sim}24^{\circ}C$인 대기 분위기에서 다양한 미끄럼 속도 (0.1, 0.78, 1.56, 3.13, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100 mm/s) 및 수직 하중 (2.4, 4.8, 9.6 N) 조건에 대해 수행되었다. 실험 결과로 각각의 실험 조건에서의 DLC와 WC/C의 운동 마찰 계수를 얻었다. 실험 결과 DLC와 WC/C의 운동 마찰 계수는 미끄럼 속도가 증가할 수록 대체로 증가하였으며, 수직 하중에 관계없이 거의 일정한 값을 보였다. 그리고 동일한 실험 조건에서 DLC의 마찰 계수가 WC/C의 마찰 계수에 비해 대체로 낮은 값을 보였다.
