Hardmetals (or cemented carbides) were invented a hundred years ago and became one of
the most important materials in engineering. The unique conjunction of fracture toughness …

To improve the wear resistance of titanium alloy, the WC-reinforced composite coatings
were prepared on Ti-6Al-4V substrate by laser cladding. The effect of linear energy density …

WC-based composites are extremely resistant to wear and corrosion; they are used in
numerous mechanical applications (eg, pumps, valves, mechanical seals, flow control …

AlCrFeNi medium-entropy alloy (MEA) without expensive Co has demonstrated superior
properties over the well-known AlCoCrFeNi high-entropy alloy. We added NbC particles to …

In order to reveal the friction behaviour and wear mechanism of nanoscale textures on the
friction pair of 304 stainless steel, molecular dynamics simulations were firstly used to …

In order to reveal the nanoscale friction behavior and wear mechanism of 304 stainless steel
during nano particles sliding, this study investigated the effects of sliding velocity and depth …

With the rapid increase of sand content in crude oil, erosion corrosion has gradually become
the key factor of pipeline failure, especially for the elbow. Therefore, in this paper, the …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dry friction and wear behavior of WC-4.3
