Wear-Free Friction of Steel on Glass in Organic Liquids and Water

The wear-free friction of steel balls SHX-15 (ShKh) on the surface of quartz glass (QG) and borosilicate glass (BG) ampoules in organic liquids and water is considered. It is shown that it is impossible to accurately predict which material will wear faster: hard or soft, ball or substrate. The highest correlation of wear of mating friction surfaces was found for balls and total wear of working bodies (r » 1). In the group of glass balls, the balls wear out more often (in 19 experiments out of 21) than in the group of steel balls (in 5 experiments out of 9). Wear-free friction is more often observed in conjugated pairs of BG/ShKh (in 5 cases) than in pairs of QG/ShKh (in 1 case). Mating surfaces containing only one SiOH end group do not provide wear-free boundary friction. The usefulness of the work lies in the fact that the results of studies of wear-free friction obtained for the conjugated pair SH/H₂O can find practical application for the creation of bearings and large human joints.
