Tribological behaviour of microalloyed and conventional C–Mn rail steels in a pure sliding condition
This paper compares the tribological behaviour of microalloyed rail steel with conventional C–Mn rail steel under different test conditions (load, temperature and humidity). Pin-on-disc tribological tests were performed inside a climate chamber under different loads (20, 30 and 40 N), relative humidity (15, 55 and 70%) and temperatures (20 and 40 ℃). After the friction and wear tests, the worn surfaces were analysed using both confocal and scanning electron microscopies. The results obtained show that the use of microalloyed steel in railway applications under severe conditions (high loads and humidity) could lead to increased service life of the rails and could extend the time between maintenance operations. ; The Foundation for the Promotion in Asturias of Applied Scientific Research and Technology (FICYT) supported this work within the framework of the research project ‘Lubrication and Surface Technology - LUSUTEC’ (GRUPIN14-023).
