Orthogonal experiment investigation on wear resistance of MoSi2

The influence of lubricant conditions, wear loads, and counterparts on the friction and wear characteristics of an MoSi2 material was investigated by means of orthogonal analysis. Orthogonal experiment results show that the order of influencing degree of the factors is lubricant condition load counterpart. MoSi2 has excellent friction-wear comprehensive properties against higher-hardness counterparts on the higher load and 20 oil lubricant conditions.
