Tribolayer Formation on Bronze Cu Sn12Ni2 in the Tribological Contact between Cy linder and Cont rol Plate in an Axial Piston Pump with Swashplate Design

The present study investigates the f ormation of tribolayers on bronze CuSn12Ni2. Two different test rigs are used, of which one is a sliding bearing test rig in order to perform lubricated thrust bearing tests. Bronze CuSn12Ni2 is used for the sliding elements and the counter body is made of C45 steel. In addition to that, an axial piston pump test rig was used to determine t he transfera bility of the results to th e axial pist on pump. The test conditions are set up in a way t hat the tribological load s in the contacts are similar to each other. Changes in the subsurfa ce morphology and the chemical composition of the tribolayer were analysed using electron pro be micro a nalysis (EPMA), trans mission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X -ray spectro scopy (EDS) and X-ra y photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Focused ion beam (FIB) milling was used to prepare site -specific TE M foils fro m the wear track. The formation of a nano scale tribolayer was associat ed with red uced wear, which leads to low leak age in the a xial piston pump. This tribolayer is enriched with oxygen, sulfur and zinc, which is an effect of tribochemical reactions of environment molecules and surface molecules.
