An Investigation for Minimizing the Wear Loss of Microwave-Assisted Synthesized g-C3N4/MoS2 Nanocomposite Coated Substrate

Mechanical components frequently come into contact against one another causing friction that produces heat at the area and wear of shortens part life increases energy consumption. In current study, an attempt was made to optimize parameters for pin-on-disc tester. The experiments were carried out in ambient thermal conditions with varying sliding speeds (0.5 m/s, 0.75 1.0 m/s) applied loads (5 N, 10 15 N) pure molybdenum disulfide 9% 20% weight percentage graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) molybdenum-disulfide (MoS2)-nanocomposite-coated steel substrate. Analysis variance (ANOVA) used determine outcome interaction between various constraints. To identify minimum wearing conditions, objective defined as criterion ‘smaller is better’. maximum impact load on coefficient depth estimated be 59.6% 41.4%, respectively, followed by speed. optimal condition determined N load, m/s speed, 9 g-C3N4 MoS2 nanocomposite. At 95% confidence level, assessed have most significant effect friction, speed material composition, whereas composition considerably impacts wear, loading These show mutual interactions. Results from Taguchi method response surface methodology are good agreement experimental results.
