摘要

A nitrided layer on 35CrMo steel was prepared by the ion nitriding process, and then a sulfur-nitrided layer was obtained by low temperature ion sulfuration. The results showed that both the nitrided and sulfur-nitrided surfaces improved the wear resistance efficiently under PAO lubrication, and exhibited the best wear resistance and friction-reducing property under PAD with 0.75% MoDTC lubrication. Compared with the plain and nitrided surfaces, the sulfur-nitrided surface exhibited the best synergistic effect with MoDTC displaying the lowest friction coefficient and wear volume. The mechanism of the best effect was due to MoS(2) and FeS formed on the sulfur-nitrided surface.
