Abstract
Results of investigations of tribological properties of thermal spray coatings containing solid lubricants under conditions of dry friction and increased temperatures are given. Addition of solid lubricants (FemOn or CaF2) to the cast iron based coatings allows a substantial improvement in their anti-friction properties at increased temperatures. Friction coefficient of detonation coatings with FemOn at 400 oC is decreased 1.5 times and that of plasma coatings with CaF2 is decreased 3 times, as compared with friction coefficient of cast iron. Wear resistance, respectively, is increased by 30 % on the average.
Keywords: thermal spray coatings, solid lubricants, dry friction, wear resistance
